About The Artwork
This friendly little Texas sunflower caught my eye one May morning on the dirt road where I live outside of Abilene, Texas. She was reaching out over the road and casting her shadow in the morning light. Sunflowers are so cheerful and her yellow petals seemed almost neon. This landscape is done in greens, browns, and yellows, and is painted in a photorealism style. The canvas has 1/2-inch edges painted in the colors of the face of the painting. A hanging wire has been added. It is signed. A certificate of authenticity is provided. It was done with Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylics and finished with Liquitex Gloss Medium and Varnish. Part of the "I Love My Texas" series.

I am a Texas artist and have painted for most of my 71 years, being from a family of artists. My mother's youngest sister, aunt Patsy, spent a lot of time with me, guiding and encouraging me, and I credit her for my passion for art. She painted under the name of "von." When she died in August of 2018, I began placing "von" somewhere on the face of each painting as an acknowledgment of her role in my artistic endeavors. My inspirations come from my home environment in Texas. Things that I have taken for granted all my life are now frequent subjects for art. Mesquites, cactus, old barns and shacks, windmills, wooden fence posts, wildflowers and the like are favorite subjects. I am a colorist, and I enjoy using color to give new life to otherwise fading beauty. In addition to color, I strive for dimension, movement, depth and unusual perspective.
