I love these wild sunflowers that grow with reckless abandon! With sprawling branches, they bloom profusely - and oh how the bees and birds love them! Today I just oils to capture their beauty - tangled stems and all. Rather than sketch my composition with brush and paint, I started with the masses of color, dotting in every area like a puzzle. This actually helped me paint accurately, since their were no stems winding through as my brain would have it. I like the very realistic portrayal this process led me to. Painting number 2792 in 2792 days.
