We're still dry and this wild sunflower is fading fast, so I am painting it while I still can. Focusing on just one bright bloom, I sketch out the form in paint before blocking in the masses. I'm using my altoid palette while painting the 7x5 panel, and turning it upright on my thumb box. This is a wonderful size for the garden, and I can paint this side quickly and move onto a second. Or, in this case, I have 7 paintings to frame and two to ship, so I have to get back to work! It's time to pay the piper after a whole weekend of family fun. Painting number 5151 in 5151 days.
