Day lilies or Hemerocallis are garden plants with beautiful display of flowers of different colors. The flowers come in almost all colors except blue. New varieties have textured petals,double shades and ruffled edges.
The variety I have painted is called Red Hot Returns.The green throat of the flower complements so well with the Red color of the petals .I have added only two leaves in the front and then a very light shades of green leaves in the background washes of blue ,yellow and green .
It is a very simple picture but still I would like to do a improvised version later .
Beautiful and fresh watercolor, red/green is always a winner.
