Sunflower and Other Large Flower Paintings

FLOWER POWER
Acrylic on Canvas - 16x20

As many of you know I normally paint with watercolors but every once and a while I get the urge to pull out my acrylics and paint on a canvas. For Flower Power I began with an abstract background using yellow, orange and some dark green for accent. I scraped into the wet paint to create texture and when dry painted the large sun flower and used white gesso to stamp the words sunflower and power.
