Sunflowers are an incredibly spectacular flower, generous in dimension and beautiful in their glory. I love that they are so obvious in their dependence on the sun as we should be in our dependence upon "The Son". Their marvelous faces follow the course of the sun as it traverses the sky from morning to evening. Their petals have a rhythm all their own and the rich golden hues seem to "sing" against the backdrop of the prairie summer skies. I painted this piece for the sheer joy of it and it is called "Dance of the Sunflowers".
