A few sunflowers... 25

Hi! I hope you are off to a great start of the new week! I'm so excited because this week, I'm taking a two day painting workshop with one of my favorite local artists! Yahoo! I'm looking forward to learning whether it be new strokes or color mixing. There's so much to learn, in such a short length of time! Today I have an art journal page to share featuring a variety of sunflowers.

I combined painting techniques learned from both Nancy Medina and Krista Eaton using oils:

I'm entering this painted page in the following challenges:

Many thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a great week!
Be Sweet ;)
