This is a good example of a negative painting done with a limited palette.--notice the circular arrangement of the colors.
The title comes from the Course In Miracles. White lilies represent purity and they are at the center of our being. Our true self is what is left after we subtract our egos. This true self is our real self. It is hard to see and connect with the true self because we carry so much in the unconscious we are not aware of. Judgements also get in the way of seeing the true self and in the world we live in judgements are hard to escape.
Many of my paintings come from my desire to ask spiritual questions and seek answers. These issues are reflected in the way I portray my subjects. Sometimes I call these watercolors painted prayers.
