New "Memories of Sunshine" Palette Knife Sunflower Painting by Niki Gulley

“Memories of Sunshine" ©2016 Niki Gulley
30" x 48" textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

Memories of Sunshine is inspired from the beautiful sunflower fields we visited in Provence, France. The flowers seemed to stretch forever and the color explosion was out of this world! Back in my studio, I worked from a combination of photos, on-site sketches and memories. Painting the sunflowers full-sized in the foreground helps to bring them to life and hopefully transport you to this happy location. Including surprising pops of vivid color keeps your eye moving throughout the scene, seeing new things each time you look at it, and adds to the joyful feeling.
