Portrait of a Lily seemed a fitting title for this painting... it brings to mind all the portrait work I am seeing on-line these days, very inspirational work, by some very talented daily painters. Plus this title is a twist on the name of a beautiful movie I saw a number of years ago (13 to be exact) called 'Portrait of a Lady'. A 1996 movie starring
Nicole Kidman and
John Malkovich, it was nominated for best costume design and should have won in my opinion. The story line is a bit twisted, but when John Malkovich is in a movie you expect it to be twisted... anyway, if you can get past the femme fatale issues in the movie you will really enjoy the gorgeous costumes. A visual feast!
In fact, I think some lovely silk striped fabric is featured on a few of Nicole's outfits...
A portrait for your wall...
