This oil painting is based on one of my favorite flowers, the sunflower. I planted 9 packets of sunflower seeds in my garden yesterday in hopes of many yellow bloomers later this spring. I mixed them up liberally, putting giants in with the little multicolor ones, and I have them in pots and beds.

I grew up on an organic farm in East Texas and my parents used to grow giant sunflowers to help attract the insects off the vegetable crops. I remember standing barefoot and gazing up into the wide, warm faces of the big sunflowers, and later tasting the seeds toasted fresh from the oven. What good memories!

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

  #mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study.  We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that.  I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it.  I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas.  Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available  GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website
