Two sunflowers fill the frame with bold color and texture, their golden petals painted in thick, confident strokes that bring them to life. Though the composition is simple, the application is anything but restrained—layers of impasto give the surface a rich physicality, allowing light to catch on each ridge of paint like sun across a field.
The flowers are closely cropped, drawing the viewer in and emphasizing form, color, and movement over narrative. Yellows and oranges mingle with subtle greens, capturing the essence of summer in a vibrant, tactile way. There's a sense of immediacy to the piece, a directness in how the paint was applied that mirrors the spontaneity of nature itself.
Small in scale but full of presence, this work is a reminder that even the quietest subjects can hold remarkable energy when approached with intention and clarity.
