Description
Sunflowers II – two blooms against a spiral sun
Wall art pours light out of a gold-white sun worked in spiral strokes at the upper left and lets it fall across two sunflowers below it: painting on canvas in which warm yellow and deep red are held in balance rather than one winning. Dense red foliage fills the lower half.
Technique and texture
The sun is painted in concentric, swirling passes that lighten toward the middle until they are almost pure white. The centres of both flowers are the most relieved passages on the canvas — a granular, heavy deposit of brown and gold. The leaves below are painted in broad planes with their veins pulled in using the tip of a tool.
The motif
The larger sunflower is at the upper right and faces square out; the second is lower and to its left, slightly in profile. Their ray petals are long and pointed in shades of yellow and gold. The lower two thirds are filled with big red and scarlet leaves on thick stems, with bluish and peach patches of ground showing between them.
Setting and placement
An upright shape carries a narrower wall, and on white or sand the red foliage does not become too heavy. Warm rooms take it easily; cold ones are changed by it.

Sunflowers II for narrow and tall walls
For a narrow wall beside a door, Sunflowers II at 40 x 60 or 50 x 75 cm is enough, next to a sofa or a tall cabinet 60 x 90 cm fits, and above a console about 100 cm wide 70 x 105 cm. On a stairwell or a tall hallway wall the two blooms under their spiral sun come into their own at 90 x 130 or 100 x 150 cm. In all, Sunflowers II is offered in 14 portrait sizes, from 40 x 60 to 180 x 265 cm.
With YES under Stretcher, Sunflowers II comes stretched on a wooden stretcher and ready to hang. The frame is up to you in the Frame menu, which for this painting with red foliage starts at Without frame. Delivery takes 15–45 days. Both flower centres carry a granular, heavy deposit of brown and gold, because the canvas is hand-painted, not printed.
