Daylilies and Cobalt by Pamela Blaies

Daylilies in a Blue Bud Vase

6" x 6"

oil on linen

I had to cut these Daylilies, from my yard, pretty short for this little bud vase. But I really wanted to put them with cobalt blue for a striking combination. I put the light source behind the setup and down pretty low. It not only made the cobalt glass cast vivid shadows onto the white napkin, but also illuminated the top Daylily from behind which gave it an orange glow.
