Artist's Description
The simplicity of the white water lily caught my eye as it floated on top of a lake near the shoreline. The lily was painted using three pigments applying many very thin layers on top of each other after the layers dried. White Wonder - White Water Lily (Nymphaea odorata) is a fragrant water lily which grows rooted in mucky or silty bottoms up to 5 feet deep. The white flower has rows of petals surrounded by a yellow center that floats on the water surface or just above it. It is surrounded by round, floating leave about 6-12 inches in diameter; the flowers open in the morning and close by late afternoon. They provide a very good habitat for fish and waterfowl love to eat the seeds. This would make a lovely addition to your home or office.
About Karen Mattson
Karen Mattson, Artist Karen Mattson grew up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, but moved to Alaska in 1968.

Karen is a signature member of the Alaska...
