Avril 14th altdelay - Original Water Lily Pond Painting

AVRIL 14TH

Original acrylic painting by Ella Cairns

Avril 14th is an original water lily pond painting that captures the feeling of nature beginning to soften and awaken in spring. Layers of turquoise, blue and fresh green create a quiet expanse of water, while pink water lilies and trailing willow branches bring gentle movement to the scene.

Painted intuitively in acrylic, the work sits between a traditional landscape and abstraction. Some details appear clearly, while others dissolve into the water and reflections. Loose brushstrokes and subtle shifts in colour give the painting an atmospheric quality, allowing the pond to feel both familiar and imagined.

From a distance, Avril 14th feels calm and immersive. Up close, the layered marks reveal movement beneath the surface: drifting lily pads, broken reflections and delicate flashes of pink and lilac. This balance between serenity and energy is central to Ella Cairns’ work, which explores how the rhythms of nature can mirror our own lived experiences.

Presented in a natural wood frame, the painting brings colour and softness into a space without feeling overly decorative. Its turquoise and botanical green palette would work beautifully in a living room, bedroom, hallway or quiet reading space.

Avril 14th is a one-of-a-kind original artwork, created by Yorkshire artist Ella Cairns. Only one is available.
