Sunflowers

Sunflowers





I am sure I have shown this painting in the early days of this blog but I use them today because no other painting I have done fits so well with the story on my other blog.

Today I was telling the tale of a family who made people laugh and smile. Sunflowers do the same to me, and they remind me of some of the flowers I say in the business I spoke of.

This painting was in large part due to my making friends with somebody. He met me on day and later looked on my website. He liked this painting and bought it. We became friends and he has helped me on more than one occasion as friends do. He helped when I was in pain with the planting of my plot. I hope they make him smile now and again as they do me.

They were painted using acrylic paint on canvas.
