Hopefully no one is tired of sunflowers, because I certainly am not. They are really starting to come out now, and I can't wait for the challenge of one that is very dark. Most of them are of the brighter variety like this one, dark in the center fading to bright on the ends of the petals. I know that I need to practice my ellipses and a flower in a round vase certainly fits the bill. It takes a lot a measuring to make it look right, and I really have to force myself to be patient with it. Random petals are so much more fun to paint!
I have a request to ask of anyone who is local to me: if you see a field of sunflowers in bloom, let me know, I'd love to go out and paint them.
