The Bright Side Sunflowers by Nancy Medina

The Bright Side Sunflowers

The Bright Side Sunflowers is a new work drying on the easel, and was a perfect excuse to step away from a 3-foot container garden painting that has been hounding me for a few days. I had a goal of creating an entire container garden without including sunflowers, but once I was three quarters of the way through, I gave in. I could no longer fight the urge and had to pop in just a few. I made them small, which I felt was a nice compromise. And with all those blues in the background, of course there needed to be some yellow respite. There now, have I made my case sufficiently? Well, I've at least convinced myself, it was the right thing to do. Visit my art blog to take a peek at the container garden in progress.
