More Sunflower Power

 "Every friend is to the other a sun, and a sunflower also.  He attracts and follows."
Jean Paul Richter (1763-1825)
Following yesterday's post, I've managed to get hold of some cold and flu medication in order to continue working on my latest Sunflower painting.  Here, have a look at my progress:

Title: "Blue vase with yellow sunflowers"  Gosh I'm creative today.
I like it so far.  I may need to add a third, smaller sunflower - I'm just trying to build the resolve to paint it (anyone got some handy they can share?).  I'm also planning on adding a fabric tablecloth underneath the vase to ground the painting, as soon as I work out how to paint a fabric tablecloth, that is. Any fabric/colour suggestions?

Sadly I'm not well enough to go to art class tonight, so you'll have to wait until next week for my grand reveal of my Anything and Everything painting.  I promise that I will post pictures as soon as I can.

PS: Be sure to come back and visit over the next couple of days so you can see my finished sunflower painting. Oh, and why not embrace my sunflower quote and follow me?  I get so excited every time I get a new follower - I'm just like a little kid on Christmas morning. ;-)

  1. Hi there, I found you on SS. You are a very gifted artist! I love this painting. Another possibility could be a smaller flower and stem at the base of the vase, like it's laying on the table ready to be placed in the vase with the others? Beautiful work.
