Painting Sunflowers, Daisies and Marigolds from my 2018 Garden


I tried a number of different backgrounds for this painting and ended up leaving it green because it will be removed by computer when I use this design on fabrics and other products.


Instead I focused my energy on getting the flowers the way that I wanted them. Here you see me changing a wildflower to a marigold to better balance my design.


At this point it's just a matter of deciding which end I want up in the final design.


I prefer it this way but on some items it really won't matter what direction it is. That's one of the really fun and surprising things about florals.
