Orange and Petrol Blue Lily Painting with Illustrated Stems - Closed, Tapered Bluish Buds - Lily Edition

The visual

Two large lilies occupy the composition, their petals spread in a gradation ofbright orange and amber hues. The finely traced black veins recall the precision of a botanical engraving, bringing relief to each petal. In the background and on the stems, a petrol blue creates a striking contrast with the warmth of the flowers. The flower buds, still closed, are also in this dark blue, bringing a visual tension between blooming and expectation. The ivory background, sober and bright, lets all the light converge on the floral subject. The vertical and tight composition gives a feeling of proximity, almost tactile, with the flower. The illustrative style, between technical drawing and graphic art, gives the whole a look that is both modern and timeless.
