Sunflower Watercolor 11×14 140 lb cold press 012018
A Watercolor Sunflower – Painting Warmth.
I found a little time this busy weekend
to escape to my art room
and splash a little paint…
to create some warmth
amidst the bitter chill
that is our weather right now…
inspired by my birthday bouquet
and the need to
create art.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
This watercolor painting – original, prints, and cards – is available at McKinneyX2Designs ETSY Shop

You have captured the pure beauty of a Sunflower with your increasingly talented hand.This splendiferous Sunflower would be lovely on note cards, were someone inclined to do so…hint! Who can not be cheered by a Sunflower!?! Thank-you!

Have you tried Mimi? A couple of years ago, I would have (and did) say the same. I learned from nothing and taught myself with lots of support from YouTube and fellow blogging artist friends. I think any of us can learn and be good at anything we truly want to! 🙂

We sure needed it today. A dark, sleety, snowy Monday with schools closed again due to weather. But…… crazy as it seems and sounds – we are supposed to hit 60 by Thursday. Still not a sun in the forecast though. So – I will have to paint sunshine! 🙂

Hello and Hugs from Benjamin! He wants you to know that he “loves the humongous Sunflower with all the teensy flowers in the middle!” (I’ve taught him well). He also says “tell my Jodi that I am 4 years old now, not 3 1/2 years old, and I am bigger too.” A bigger smeary kiss was placed on the humongous Sunflower! Thank-you x 2!!
