Sunflower

A late Summer still life of one of the last of the sunflowers in our garden. I painted this over a still life “fail” from earlier this year. The background has remnants of that prior painting, giving this one more texture and layers. On my bucket list for the near future is to paint over some of the many failed paintings I have! They make me sad when I look at them, even though I know they have contributed to my painting education. This painting is a 9×12 oil on panel.
