This painting is a vibrant, dreamlike depiction of red water lilies floating on a glowing, electric-hued pond. The flowers are large and bold, their scarlet and magenta petals painted with expressive, thick strokes that radiate outwards, surrounding bright yellow centres. The lilies are clustered in a rhythmic arrangement, drawing the eye upward as they gently recede into the distance.
Beneath them, cool teal and emerald lily pads float like stepping stones across the surface of the water. The water itself is alive with colour — swirling shades of cobalt, turquoise, violet, and flashes of green and yellow that give a sense of rippling light and motion.
