Sunflower Glowing

11x15 watercolor on Saunders 140 lb cold press of a mature sunflower; this was my demo yesterday for a workshop in San Angelo, TX.
I have painted several versions of this flower and one of those was all in pinks and is now sold.  Each version is more fun than the last. It was done wet in wet with transparent colors.

Thank you Guy. Yes, I drew it again only this time was on 1/4 sheet for my demo. Even have painted this in pink before and sold it...I should post that one.
