Water Lily   (watercolor)

I watercolored this from a photo I took at the St. Petersburg, FL Sunken Gardens. My photo won an award and was in the Morton Plant Hospital Calendar for 1988, I believe it was. I never dreamed that someday I would be painting from that photograph. :)

What joy and beauty you bring to the world, Sharon, not only with your photos and paintings but also your eneregetic lovely smile. What a story this one has, and I do have a question: is it possible for you to choose a favorite between this painting and its forerunner photo? And how about posting the photo beside this? Please keep it up, Sharon! Peace, etc., Bruce
