I had a chance to get over to International Waterlily Collection's Lily Fest before noon today and saw my friend Miss Ashley from Pop of Color. Bought a few of her prints and had to immediately run over to Hobby Lobby and get them in frames to display on my desk. You should definitely check out her artwork.
