Description
A bright yellow sunflower, grown from a runaway seed dropped by a seed cake we set out for our wild birdie friends, took root and grew up in our garden this summer. Since we've been using shell-less seeds for years … they create less mess and do not germinate … the surprise of this pretty flower was a treat. I loved the geometric pattern created by the budding seeds in the center.
Digital art created primarily in Photoshop with some Corel Painter touches … lots and lots of layers with some beautiful splashy brushes in a watercolor style. Loosely based on one of my own photographs (not stock or public domain images … and not scraped from anywhere). This image was NOT created using AI - Artificial Intelligence programs.
Fine art and product purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... this image will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."

The intricate center design is enhanced by the loose watercolor strokes that surround it, Lois.

beautiful work, Lois. And I get the layers. Just finished one the other day with tons and tons of layers but after all the work I still could not really see the layers. Not much.
