Sunflowers

This was a wonderful summer for sunflowers and I took many photos. N ow that winter has arrived those photos encourage me to paint flowers.This is my latest painting, from my summer photos, of sunflowers. i like the way the sunlight is bouncing off some of the petals and some of the sunflowers are in the shade. Hope you do too.

                           

This is painted on an12x24 gallery wrapped canvas.

                                       

Hollyhocks by the House

Hollyhocks such as these are beautiful flowers. They grow so tall on very strong stems and one morning the blossoms start. The wonderful flowers face the sun and they just seem to shine as the sun hits them.
