This morning I painted several versions of sunflowers, modeling them after a beautiful painting by Beverly Boren, an artist in Texas. My first one was the best, so I made it into a postcard and mailed it to Mom.
The idea is to keep the petals of the sunflower loose but still recognizable, to have some found edges and some lost edges, and to have some light values and some dark values. I’m still learning how to do this. It’s so darned hard!
