Painted these sunflowers from an image some friends sent last summer. Enjoyed painting this size, 8" x 16".  Playing around with another one with a bit different composition.

Just finished "Nuts about Geraniums" 10" x 20" Oil on Canvas.  I decided I wanted to tackle a clay pot filled with geraniums, focusing mostly on the pot and the leaves.  I did not expect the pot to be so difficult to paint.  It took many tries, with lots of scraping in between.  I think it was the under painting of some blue that did the trick.
