I have always had a liking for sunflowers. This is a painting that I completed recently in Queensland. The inspiration for the image comes from growing sun flowers myself in Tasmania in 2008 which was a bright success for my house on Madden St, filling my front yard with big bobbing smiling flowers that seemed to be having important conversations with one another. My inspiration also comes from the grand Vincent VanGogh and Ken Done.Interestingly, there are a few hidden details in the painting that you might not see at first, ie, a boy walking down the path, figures on the jetty and a bird talking to a mole.
