Lily Pads inspired by Schmid
8x8 in recessed birch box 2" deep
We have a lovely and large lily pond in Balboa Park in San Diego. Lily pads and ponds have been a common subject for painting since Monet. This version was inspiring from Schmid so I decided to study his which you see here. This would not be considered an original by me, but a fun image to enjoy nonetheless.
I have a few paintings in this box style. It is nice since it sits on furniture or a shelf by itself and no frame necessary. You can get creative and add small accessories inside the box. I have a tiny vase, and carved rock animals that look cute. I have also just added special rocks that I find while hiking.
These boxes do not have the accessories on the back to allow them to hang on the wall, however if you choose to, there are stick-on hangers at hardware store that will work. I also kept the box the natural birch (personal preference) and for those of you that want to paint or finish it to coordinate with your interior, that is available to you.
