Contemporary Impressionist Palette Knife Landscape and Floral by Artist Sheri Jones

Smile for Miles

11x14

Seeing fields of these happy sunflowers brings a smile to my face. A small group of artist  joined me to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. The winds were strong with clouds moving quickly. The dust storm brought in a interesting light.  The sunflowers were still glowing for miles.

I continue exploring my series "Flowers Gone Wild". I went with a cooler color palette with this one.  My goal was to abstract the background with shapes inspired from the flowers and leaves.

I know Texas Ag plants sunflowers in the Ennis county area, but was not sure where.  They rotate the crops yearly. Thanks to a post from my friend, Happy I was able to find them. We found a quiet road with a shade tree surrounded by of large fields of them.  I was in heaven.

Sunshine Garden, New Contemporary Floral Painting by Sheri Jones

Sunshine Garden

14x11 on gallery wrapped canvas

I tried a different approach with this painting. I wanted to keep the background colorful and loose. I found the contrasting colors of the larkspur and sunflowers eye stopping. I applied the paint with a palette knife, creating the texture I was going for.
