Fresh cut

I love this painting. At first I thought it was going to be a loser...but then I kept applying what I know..and eventually it turned into something I want to keep and hang on my walls.

sunflowers from farmers market

I am trying to really push the colors in my still life paintings...more color...less tonal...it is a lot of fun to do if it works out. This was a bunch of sunflowers and other from the farmers market last spring. I had started the painting then stopped. Recently I brought the painting out and worked on it...warming everything up. I like it.
