Purple irises catching the sun.....

Spring bulbs and busy days....
The plant on the right?? I have NO idea what it is....and I planted it! It grows in the same bed as the iris above, and blooms at the same time. I love the unusual shape of the bloom. Doing each of these flowers justice in a painting will be a challenge! I love the colors in the iris, and it will be tough to get the intensity of the yellow without it looking too opaque in comparison to the other colors. The flower on the right has each little bloom opening straight downwards, but I think in the photo here I was able to capture enough of the interior color to make it accurate. With how busy I have been these past few weeks, I'm glad I was able to catch these beauties!
