Calla Lily Like O'Keefe Notecard
Calla Lily Like O'Keefe Notecard
The angle of the sunlight on this Cala Lily, and the way it illuminates the minimalist interior of the Calla, reminds me of the style of Georgia O’Keefe.
Petal Portraits Notecards are 5” x 7” when folded and include an envelope. The images were made using only natural sunlight with minimal retouching. The cards are printed on paper that is designed to show off the vibrant colors on the outside and have a surface on the inside you can easily write on.
Each card is printed individually by the photographer and inspected prior to packaging and shipment.
To me the main characteristic of the Lily family is boldness. They’re all about showing off all their assets, so to speak. The petals are generally, large, thick and waxy, and their reproductive parts are boldly on display for all to see. Not exactly playing hard-to-get from a bee’s perspective.
Ah, but when they are touched by the Light, the thick petals become luminous and create a softly-colored canvas upon which shadows fall. The petals themselves become a study in curves as they reach out to the Light and then curl back, slowing our eyes and causing to think more deeply about this bold display in front of us.
