This artwork is representing one shade of the female soul, and that's purity.
I painted this piece in soft colors going to pink and turquoise shades.
A white lily symbolizes purity, innocence and rebirth. The beauty of this flower has inspired the work of writers and artists for centuries.
William Blake, a Romantic poet, wrote a poem entitled “The Lily” that encompasses its sweet and innocent beauty.
The modest Rose puts forth a thorn,
The humble sheet a threat’ning horn:
While the Lily white shall in love delight,
Nor a thorn nor a thread stain her beauty bright.
