Sunflower

I must comment on your sunflower because it is Just great - love the sunflower seedhead. This would take patience for me in oil. I want to be like Karl paint outside and finish in an hour. The cold would get to me though. I wait until it's a bit warmer. Val I don't mind people watching me paint, I used too. Thanks for your wonderful comment on Melissa's Lily II. I just told my husband what you had said. He said, 'Well that's you isn't it you cannot do anything slow - I mean anything') He is right, I couldn't argue. I must admit Val first of all I am just slapping around on the canvas not caring until it all starts to come together. The Degas' I draw first. even then sometimes I start to loose the plot and have to find it again. Thanks Jeannette x

Stunning oil painting, it is one of my favourite flowers and you have captured it well.
