Large Sunflower Fence

Boy oh Boy, do I wish you had a print of this. I probably couldn't have afforded the actual painting anyway, but I just saw this on Daily Painters and swooped in to see if I could purchase, and .... Too Late!!

I so love this amazing piece -- you've captured the REAL brilliancy of a late summer or fall sky and the flowers. Thank you for creating this work!
