Sunseeker

15x22 watercolor over partially gessoed matboard sketched in pencil in a rough outline. The gesso gives a slick finish upon which to work and also lends textural effects to the finished painting. This was one of my sunflowers planted awhile back. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith

Can’t keep up with you. :-) This sunflower is gorgeous. I like the Hilltop Music in the previous post. I see New Mexico in that one. Love it.
