Lily Love

Day 4 of A Ten Day Art Challenge – Lily Love

Sculptor Timothy Nimmo chose me to complete a 10 day art challenge on Facebook beginning Monday July 13 . The purpose of the challenge is to fill Facebook with art and to acknowledge artists.. I admire Tim and love his magnificent art. I am honored and humbled to be included. Today’s entry- Lily Love

My Day 4 post in the 10 Day Art Challenge is Lily Love, a pice I completed today. There is a tenderness about the blossom of this daylily as she opens her heart to the world. I was shooting in a demonstration garden in Colorado Springs at dawn and working strenuously to move my body into the best position and get the light and shadows I was looking for and moving rapidly from plant to plant. When I saw this beauty in the corner of my eye I stopped and stood still. I did a breathing meditation to get more connected to myself and to be able to be with this flower in the present. Then, taking my time I enjoyed finding the light and position that showed her softness and beauty.
