The Sunflower from the Colors of Summer Collection
THE STORY BEHIND THE PAINTING:
‘The Sunflower’ is the fourth and final painting of The Colors of Summer Collection.
This painting was inspired by my mother’s late summer garden and the nodding, golden flowers who look like the sun has fallen to earth. I spent an afternoon photographing the bumble bees who gather profusely around the flowering seed heads and knew that this painting wouldn’t be complete without featuring the insects who love this flower the most.
Once again, I used a palette of primary colors for this sunflower, along with white for blending. Like its predecessors, this sunflower displays all the colors of the rainbow across its beautiful, geometric face.
THE STORY BEHIND THE COLLECTION:
Colors of Summer is inspired by all the summertime colors. Each floral painting has all the colors of the rainbow. If you look closely, each new insect included in a painting is featured in the following one as well, creating a visual timeline for when the paintings were completed. This collection completely changed how I viewed color, and I thoroughly enjoyed the process. I hope you love it as much as I do.
HOW IT ARRIVES:
This 11×14 painting was painted with acrylic paint on a stretched canvas. The canvas is signed on the front and the back. Your painting will arrive ready to hang in a walnut wood frame, along with a certificate of authenticity and a letter from the artist.
