Whirlygig Sunflower Blossom
12" x 12" work in progress

Have you ever seen a more funky sunflower blossom? I sure haven't! This one was full of attitude, and I couldn't wait to get that down on canvas!


My daughter was the one who gave me the idea of calling it a Whirlygig. I am thinking that Windmill would also  suit the shape and movement of the leaves...which name do you like for this painting?


Once this one is finished, I will post it for you to see. It too will be sold at my Studio Art Sale, which is just over 2 weeks away! You can check out all that will be for sale, and the prices, at my website: www.joannegiesbrecht.com  Any piece can be pre-sold, so if one interests you, don't hesitate to contact me so that you don't lose out! 

SUNFLOWER BLOSSOM

I must admit that I do enjoy painting sunflowers. They just seem to come alive as you paint them, and they tell you what they need. If you listen and  do what the painting tells you, then it seems that the painting "sings".

"Sunnyboy"
12" x 12" acrylic
$200

This little guy is now complete - and I love how there are so many lovely yet quirky leaves and petals. I have already begun another little blossom which was part of the bunch of sunflowers I bought and photographed a couple of weeks ago. Wait till you see how quirky that one is!!!


I will be selling this painting at my Studio Art Sale on October 29th/30th if it is not purchased before then. If you are interested in "Sunnyboy", contact me at jogiesbrecht@gmail.com. 
And, if you are interested in attending the art sale, contact me for more details. :-)
