Description

"If you hear a voice within you saying, “You are not a painter,” then by all means paint, boy, and that voice will be silenced..."
~Vincent Van Gogh

Acrylic on canvas, 20"x16"
If the buds look like doughnuts, that's because they were for a while... I blame :iconsilver-vixi:! I'll post the doughnut version in scraps.

I've loved Vincent's Sunflowers since I was a kid. I experimented with layers upon layers of paint to create a 3D texture for the buds. I like how it looks in real life but it's hard to capture in a photo. Kinda happy with the result but I think I have a long way to go before I'm really satisfied with a finished painting.

The doughnuts version isn't in scraps! You made me really interested in seeing your original doughnut-flowers. This one is very lovely as well though, it's beautifully done.
