I love simplicity and complexity of my subjects and how something as simple as a sunflower can have many different textures, and can all be different while being so much alike, like people. We have a bird feeder outside of my studio window that gives many hours of entertainment for my cat, Stella. The birds often drop some of the seeds as they eat. We use a birdseed mix that includes sunflower seeds. This sunflower was one of the gifts we received from feeding the birds.
