Weekly Oil Paintings
by Sister Maresa Lilley, SND
From a photo by another Sister of Notre Dame, I painted this buttery rose. The inner golden glow enticed me the most. Sometimes oil painters leave part of the white canvas showing as I did here. I did, however, tone the center of the board with yellow orange and let it drip before I began to paint. This effect was used to create added interest and warmth.

After tedious careful detail in some of my work, I enjoy letting loose
I am Sister Maresa Lilley, a member of the Sisters of Notre Dame, located in Chardon, Ohio, USA. For many years, I have enjoyed a passion that permits me to reflect upon simple reality with a brush in hand. To capture a simple essence on canvas and to discover inherent beauty is a daily immersion.
