Description
I took one of my favorite lily photographs and used it as a reference for this painting. (You can see the photograph here if you're interested.) Since I'm not very good at drawing, I traced the outline of the shapes. Other than that, this is a straight digital painting, no tricks.
Well ... except for the fact that I realized I'd used the same shades of pink and rose on this lily as I did on the last flower painting I posted, so I changed the color of the flower in Photoshop once the painting was done. :)
Gotta love the options that are available with digital art!

Great Work!!
Outstanding work! I may have to give DP a try some day
Very nicely done. Like the highlights and shadows. This for sure isn't something I've tried yet. Of course if I tried this technique, I'd probably have to take a photo of a tank and paint it with a new camo paint job or something similar :) Bill
Wonderful work Tara!!! :)
This is fantastic sweetie, I bet it took a while too, great work, DP brings to mind a grand master in the nobel art by the name of Bert Monroy, have you heard of Bert?
wonderful picutre!!!!
Marvellous! I love this, Tara: Just imagine how tedious it would be to repaint and actual canvas. It is beautiful!!! I haven't even made a start on Corelpainter yet, but I will! Just so much going on with the house, and I need to get my physical fitness back after the winter too.
Beautiful and soft image. excellent!!
OH it is really very lovely and you got the lighting just perfect. A really excellent peace of art :))) Bravo Tara :)))
Pure beauty. Oh how I wish I had your talent, or even a smidgen of your talent.
such a beautiful lily, Tara May have a wonderful weekend warm hug and love, Linda Kaye
Its a beauty!

I just love this~~soft, sweet, dreamy, you have far more talent than you realize, my friend!!
Brilliant! Waow! this is amazing. Waow!
superb work ...
Beautiful work!!!
Stellar.
Very lovely! So now you just need to print it onto a canvas, right? :)
Ohhhh, that's just lovely. ^_^ The smooth brushes used were exactly the right one for this type of scene. Great work! -Reyn
Fab job... its a fav of mine now too!
Well done. I hope to see more digital art in the future. Dana P
Wonderful softness of the color.
the photograph is beautiful, tara, but the painting is even moreso. A flower transformed into a vision! I loved the last painting, and love this. I simply can't get these feelings in software, but you painted a long time and it must rush through your blood. The rushes of white and the beautiful dark violets (some in lines, like energy) are gorgeous. And you've highlighted the stamens like bursts, and your green background is lush and peaceful at the same time. (it's to die for.) You could paint here forever & I wouldn't tire of it...a beautiful piece. (And for whatever it's worth, I never care if a painting has similar colors to another: They're still separate visions, and this one is just beautiful!)
ohh its jsut gorgeous ! wonderful painting !!
Excellent work! :)
WOW!! Love it!
wonderful close-up
superb !!
Well done Tara...a great piece of art
