Welcome to my Art Blog! I paint or draw most weekdays and sometimes finish a painting a day. I fondly call them my "Postcards from Paradise" because it's such a beautiful place the Lord made here for us.

“Sunflower Shadows" Daily Still Life Painting

Original oil painting 5"x5"

Sunflowers are such wonderfully bold, strong flowers. I frequently think of Van Gogh's sunflower paintings when I look at them. He was compelled to paint a number of pieces with these bright blooms as the subject.

How many ways can one look at a sunflower and see something new?
