New York City Sunflowers

















One of the things I love about living in New York are the flower stands on many of the corners. Row after row of beautiful blooms provide a welcome oasis to the eye. I found these magnificent sunflowers bursting with color on the corner of 86th and York Avenues. After sketching them in on a 16 x 20 linen canvas I blocked in the background and the dark centers of the flowers ~ can't wait to see them blossom!
