#44. Black Eyes

SOLD!

August 7th, 2014: Oil on Board, 6" x 6".  Although I love me some Black-Eyed Susans it always makes me a little sad when they start blooming.  They seem to be the heralds of the end of summer and the coming cold.  For some reason (perhaps because sunflowers were one of the first things I remember trying to paint as a child), sunflower paintings always seem a bit cliche to me.  I was pleasantly surprised to find that this is one of my favorite paintings once I finished it!
