This sunflower painting celebrates resilience, light, and natural beauty through bold texture and layered detail. Painted in a mixed media style, the flower’s radiant petals stretch outward in soft yellows, golds, and warm purples, surrounding a richly detailed center flecked with points of light. The green leaves and sturdy stem ground the composition, rising from an earthy, textured backdrop.

The background itself carries subtle patterning and surface texture, adding depth and history to the piece. These layers make the sunflower feel both timeless and modern, giving it presence beyond traditional floral painting.

Collected for its warmth and optimism, this work has been especially admired for the way it brings natural energy and strength into a room. As part of my floral portfolio, it reflects my ongoing exploration of how flowers — symbolic and familiar — can be reimagined through texture, layering, and expressive mark-making.
