Description
Painting of a single beautiful sunflower, painted with charcoal and soft pastels. The original version is painted in vibrant shades of yellow, green and purple. Here I digitally altered it into a black and white / grey version.
Last summer I was so fascinated of the beautiful bright yellow sunflowers blooming in the summer gardens and in sunflower fields around me. I realized, that I haven`t painted sunflowers before, so I decided to challenge myself and do a series of sunflower paintings in many different techniques, experimenting with various media like watercolor, soft pastels, acrylic, oil pastels, pencil, ink, charcoal..., trying different papers and styles. That was great fun. This painting is part of this flower series.

Love this black and white of the sunflower. It just shows you don't always need color to show the beauty of things.
