I have always loved tiger lillies. When I was little my mother had a picture that my great-grandmother had painted of these type of lillies, but I remember the lillies in the painting having brown oval-shaped spots. I tried and tried to draw, paint, or color flowers to look like the ones my great-grandmother had painted. I never succeeded in achieving anything even close to how wonderful I thought the ones in the picture looked. I recently asked my mother about the painting and was told that the paper had cracked and crumbled and fell apart and I was so sad that the painting of which I had such memories was lost forever.
