August Sunflowers

Today was such a beautiful August day in the 70s,I just had to take advantage of it!  There was no garden work for me, only painting and a little observation.  With an unscheduled afternoon, I worked on a large painting in addition to this one, and organized my thoughts for some upcoming work.  I've painted this one on the dreaded 140lb cold pressed paper, and have made it work (though, I longed for my cotton paper the whole time)!  It seems I have to use it every once in a while, just to remember how much I love the other!  Painting number 5140 in 5140 days.
