Description
"Follow the Sun"
A digital soft pastel painting of the back of a brilliantly hued sunflower I grabbed at a local farmer's market. I used a saturated color palette of brilliant red, yellow, orange, navy blue and purple on a black background for my surrealist bloom. Please visit my Contemporary Botanicals art gallery to see more of my floral artwork.
