lit from within

i think these flowers appear to be lit from the inside, more than any other flower, is because they rest upon a body of water. which reflects sunlight. so they are, in fact, lit from underneath as well as above.

    Hi, David is so happy to have your painting. It will be hung in our family room across From the pairing I gave him as a wedding gift. I’m so thankful you thought of this. I had been struggling trying to come up with a nice surprise ! Enjoyed seeing you, Hannah, Sophie and Henry last night! Love, Linda
