Walking out in my backyard I saw this looming over my neighbors fence. Only one, but what a gorgeous sunflower. I have always wanted a row of these strange giants, but I heard from another neighbor the chipmunks were also very fond of these.
I photographed and painted this in a very different style for me. I m trying to go a little more on the abstract, but not quite there. I wanted to stretch my watercolors, making them more vivid than I usually paint.
The back to school rush almost over, some already back. This means one thing, summer is a heartbeat from becoming a memory.
Lovely painting. I think sunflowers are one of the most charming sights on earth. They always make me smile, as did your painting.
ReplyDeleteI checked out your Etsy shop and loved the roses in a vase.
