Illustration Friday - Stargazing


The Stargazer Lily- A flower like none other. While it is a nice flower to look at, it is its fragrance that really steals the show. It has a heavy, other-worldy scent. Close your eyes and it will take you to far away lands...

I have a co-worker who always brings in wonderful-smelling flowers from her garden. They completely transform the office. I love how such a small thing can make such a huge difference.

(I did a starry night scene for the Illustration Friday topic last week, so I wanted to do something different this week.)

  4. What a great interpretation - I love the composition!

    p.s. Your starry night "caged" piece is fantastic... I know I sometimes feel stuck inside - time to get out & enjoy the last bit of summer!

  6. great idea for a "stargazing" theme! stargazer lilies are my most favorite flower, and just because of their totally amazing smell. Even with my substandard sniffer, I can enjoy their perfume. Beautiful! You are really on a roll lately!
