I have been waiting over 6 months to paint these flowers. My wonderful studio-mate, Mirinda Reynolds, brought these into our studio at Liberty Town last October (I think). The sun through the window caught them just right. I have been thinking of how to paint them ever since. Now is the time to recreate them in watercolor. I have painted over 25 sunflower paintings, each series unique in color choices and techniques in painting. This one will no doubt take on it's own personality as well. And though I have a plan in mind, I am eager to see how it will develop. I find comfort in being so familiar with this subject.
