Sunflowers and Poppies are one of my favourite motifs. They allow great use of colour and freedom of expression in oil paintings. They bring wonderful abstract colours to the canvas and are the perfect antidote to our grey winters and cloudy days. After spending my winter in India or Asia I return back to the UK for the summer and love to paint in a loose and free style the poppies and sunflowers in the fields of North Devon. While Poppies are quite common in set aside fields and organic grain fields, sunflowers are a little harder to find. They can often be found as ground cover and food for pheasants in remoter areas of the county. This year I had part of the fields around the studio planted with sunflowers to inspire the paintings and next year this will form a series of paintings at the studio. The paintings above are some of my favourites from last year which are all sold now. If you want to see more go the viewer and select the sunflowers and Poppies album in the top left. In the viewer you can view poppy and sunflower paintings past and present and enlarge them to see all the detail in the brush strokes. If you want to see the current selection go to the buy section of the site and look through the Landscape & flowers shopping cart.
