About this Painting: A group of white and purple irises is depicted on a dark green backdrop. That day the sunlight was nearly overhead. A fence created a dark backdrop to the eye of the camera, leaving part of the white and purple irises to reflect the light in a dramatic fashion. The artist worked carefully in oil to capture the essence of the flowers, petals, and stems. The warm sunlight reflected on the petals and subtle colors of the flowers in the shadows were especially challenging and rewarding to capture on canvas.
