graphite lily

The wedding was very beautiful. I got to see a lot of people that I haven’t seen in years and Jeet got to meet a lot of people for the first time. The ceremony was outside and it was very scenic, although the heat was oppressive. I actually wish I had my sketchbook with me so I could have drawn stuff, but I don’t think my sister would have liked that idea. I drew this sketch a few days ago when Jeet gave me these stargazer lilies. They were so beautiful and I wish I had been able to draw more pictures of them than I did, but they did not last too long.

    The fragrance of stargazer lilies stops us in our tracks and momentarily transports us into another realm – your sketch does full justice to its appearance as well!
