Water Lily Sink

I had two options with this - either make a fake water lily and not show that it's floating in a sink, or to use a real lily and show the sink. This is because the leaves and lily would match and then be placed in a man made environment and if the lily wasn't real it wouldn't have the same effect. However if the lily is simulated, then the sink can't be shown because the environment needs to look real, and this is why I coloured the water and hid the plug etc. Despite this, I do prefer the last photos where the lily os obviously not real but your can see that it's in a sink.

I cut the leaves off this plant and cut the pointy bit off.

Floated them in the sink.

Started with screwed up paper but it looks too big and too egg-like.

Coloured the water with the paint for realism and to hide the plug a bit.
