My Lily

A single lily stem with two large white blossoms in full bloom fills the lower half of the composition, their petals curling outward with yellow throats and orange-red stamens, while a closed bud and dark green leaves rise above against a gradient teal-to-navy background scattered with slender silhouetted grasses and a pale round moon. The flowers are rendered in flat, crisp-edged fields of white, yellow, and green that contrast with the softer, hazy blue tones of the night setting behind them, giving the piece a still, quiet mood. "My Lily," 2020, acrylic on canvas, by Asako Iwasawa.
