Sunflowers

This painting is from 2007 and it displays sunflowers in a terra cotta vase in front of a blue tree panel. I have been struggling when painting this. Not so that it is showing any evidence mudding around but it is painted with a defensive style. I can see how the subject overwhelmed me.

I can also see that this was in the middle of my period when working from pans. That is little cups of dry aquarelle color pigment. You wet a brush and dissolve a bit of paint from the pan and then paint with it. This is very handy. You bring a little box with pans and a brush and then you only need water and paper to do art.

When it comes to aquarelle I have always been painting with the Winsor and Newton brand.

I moved from Sweden to The Netherlands in 1995.

Here on this site, you find my creations because that is what I do. I create.
