Sunflowers



Two things I love here. Sunflowers and farms. Sunflowers are beautiful, I enjoy munching on the seeds and also to have them sprinkled on a salad. Farms, well I can say they have always been a fascination with all the equipment and animals. You may as well throw in the open, expansive landscape which captures my heart and paintbrush.

Many who look at this description, dismiss it and think only the number of houses or condos that will fit in this space. It makes me very sad to see these wonderful properties disappearing. This could be one of the reasons I love to paint landscapes, my way of preserving. So, pay attention to the landscape and enjoy it, next time you pass, you might see a pile of bricks! Sunflowers don't grow on bricks very well.

  2. I adore the gorgeous blue mountains They make this painting sing and complement the sunflowers.

    We are two birds of a feather - relaxing from the stress of a show. I am enjoying the tranquil time and your painting added to my pleasure

    1. Good morning Julie, you are too kind. We truly are two birds of a feather. I have a White Cap Pionus (little parrot) who will be 17 yrs old in July. We've had him since he was 10 wks. I'm now ready to get back to painting. Again, congratulations on your beautiful show.
