The colors for this week were green and citron.
So I wandered through my garden and found
this yellow Asiatic lily with it green leaves and
citron colored buds just waiting to burst into bloom.
So I added it to my Grow watercolor book.
This is one the rabbits didn't get to. We seem
to have an explosion of bunnies this year. Love
them but not when the eat my flowers.
You can all still join in the Summer of Color.

I'm enjoying our lilies so much this year - thanks to the wonderful deer fence!
Gorgeous watercolor painting. Love the two colors you've used. :)
What a beautiful watercolour.
It is simple and stunning.
When I see this sort of artwork I get the urge of painting again!
Beautiful! I need to add lilies to my garden.
You have happy rabbits I bet! :D :D
Beautiful artwork, Sharon. How lovely to take inspiration from the 'real thing' in your garden.
Oh I just love your watercolor of the lily! The simplicity is perfect for the subject.

Thanks for the inspiration and ahve a terrific weekend!

Oooh, this is so very beautiful! Your work is so elegant and soft - and yet these colors demand attention. What a realistic rendering - and I love how you share a picture of the direct inspiration ;) Thank you for playing along, xo
So lovely!
You draw beautifully!
This is beautiful; I have orange ones and a few bunnies ;D They aren't interested in mine, yet :D
Well Done~
You found the perfect colors in nature and your drawing is wonderful. Happy Summer Weekend...
This is really beautiful. It reminds me of a book I love, called the Diary of an Edwardian Lady. She kept a lovely nature journal, which inspired me to do the same.
I'm excited to see what you do for pink. :)
both your paintings for blue and green are wonderful! i adore flowers :) your blog is very soothing and i enjoyed wandering through it!
Love that lily and your water color. It really is true what they say about bunnies :)
How glorious!! You are quite talented. Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting on my humble effort!
Gorgeous artwork, Sharon. I like how the flower overlays the border lines too.
The bunnies have actually allowed me to enjoy the blooms this year, but some underground critter dug up the west side garden, so we built wire boxes & sunk them at ground level, and I am refilling them with dirt and replanting that side all over again. They tried coming in through the top, realized that they couldn't dig down and gave up. Hopefully, they will leave it alone now! ???
Hope you're having a great summer!
Hugs,
