The Joy of Life: Sunflower with Blue
I love Sunflowers! And I love blue! So one bright sunny day I wandered, camera-in-hand, out to my sunflower garden, noting the sky was an exceptional cerulean blue. I captured this flower with its head cocked just so—and there began the process of creating the design for this print. Having grown fond of the reduction block process, this time I decided to play with the background, yielding a more rhythmic, impressionistic, and joyful response—a look I hope to continue to explore!
