This arrangement of lily pads, floating atop a very still pond, created a beautiful design with the dark reflections of surrounding palm trees. The stillness of the pond water made these reflections and the sky background appear very flat. I loved the graphic design effect this created and tried to keep all the shapes somewhat flat.

Be still my heart. This is wonderful. Great work Cecelia.
Absolutely beautiful, Cecelia, perhaps another one some day in bigger size?...
Great design, and I love your clear and concise colors. I have many pics of looking down into still water ponds in Pa. Never new quite how to handle them. Maybe I'll try now!
THANK YOU-I PAINTED THIS FROM THE PHOTO I TOOK AT MCKEE BOTANICAL GARDEN--IT WAS A CLOUDY DAY-NO DEEP SHADOWS ANYWHERE--THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE FLATNESS OF THE SHAPES--I KNEW I WANTED TO PAINT THIS AS SOON AS I SAW THE PHOTO.
I like the GRAPHIC design! too!
So, COOL, Cecelia : )
