Sunburst Lily

Sunburst Lily is a radiant mixed‑media floral piece created on a smooth basswood rectangle. Soft pan pastels form the glowing yellow‑to‑amber background, giving the lily its signature sunlit aura. Over this warm gradient, detailed colored‑pencil work brings the petals to life with gentle pinks, creams, and subtle shading that enhances the natural curvature of the bloom.

The burn lines beneath the color add structure and definition, allowing the flower to stand boldly against the luminous backdrop. The result is a vibrant, uplifting artwork that feels both delicate and powerful — a celebration of light, warmth, and botanical beauty.
