Right now my studio looks like a field of Sunflowers! I’m working on a series of five oil paintings — each of a different sunflower. This particular sunflower is from a photo I took in the gardens at Furman University in Greenville, SC. If you’ve never been to this campus, you’d be amazed at how lovely the grounds are. You can expect to see more paintings from me in the future that are inspired from around the campus.

I'm getting ready to work on the middle of this sunflower. I want to capture the texture I saw on the real flower.
