We got to Blue Ridge Daylilies early - around 8? - because the temp was going to climb. The daylily fields were in full bloom, with flowers of all shapes and colors. I spied a friend painting in the shade, which spoke to me. It was a battle between him and the rooster sculpture - so they both won out. Oil, 8 X 10”, available.

A Day With The Daylilies
It’s a work in progress but almost finished with “A Day With Daylilies.” I need to decide if I’m keeping the rooster sculpture, and work on some refinements in lilies and shadows. Oil, 8 X 10” on panel.
Blue Ridge Daylilies PaintOut Plein Air
The day was hot hot hot, but the scenery was glorious. My friend Doug painted & posed while the hours flew. It’s a work in progress but will be on offer soon.

"Lilified 1.0" by Catherine Twomey
“Lilified 1.0” 6 X 6” custom framed, ready to hang. Oil on panel.
This richly detailed portrait of a home grown lily from my garden is 6" X 6", an oil. It is in a floating, custom frame that gives weight and additional beautiful to the original painting. There's something about these lilies that spells "summer" - can you imagine the insects flitting about; the sun's heat on your arms; the bright burst of yellow that lasts but one day? This is it. The frame is a stunning greenish-grey, with a copper inset that edges the painting panel. The frame's border is 3", making the painting about 14" X 14". It is backed, wired and ready to hang.
