I stumbled upon these sunflowers during a spontaneous stop at a farm I pass on my way to the studio. While I was there to pick up some blueberries, I was captivated by their beautiful field of sunflowers for sale. To me, sunflowers represent happiness in a vase. I decided to employ a mixed media approach, utilising inks and acrylic gouache, to capture their stunning beauty. My hope is that this artwork brings joy to someone who chooses to purchase it.This artwork is UNFRAMED. Please note the images of the artwork are styled to give you an idea of what it would look like when framed. *The artwork will be shipped using appropriate packaging e.g. sturdy mailing tube.
A big thank you to Julie McDonald Artist for guiding me through my first ever art class. It was welcoming, fun, interesting, challenging and there was cake and cups of tea and a stunning location.

Julie's paintings adorn walls throughout our home and all are very different in their subject and medium. A particular favourite of ours is a watercolour of our staffy dog as a pup. Julie has captured his personality perfectly. We would highly recommend a viewing of Julie's collection.

Julie thank you for such a wonderful class yesterday. I went from stick figures to a landscape and wanting to buy charcoal. It was a fun afternoon in beautiful surroundings and practical steps that I can use to continue my journey.

We have two of Julie's beautiful paintings and they are exquisite. They have become much loved features in our home. The precision in her brushwork makes each artwork come to life and everyone comments on how lovely they are.

Julie's art is so expressive. I've bought a number of pieces so far. I love the different styles and in particular, how Julie beautifully, and expertly, captures the moment and character.

Julie had the ability to give me the confidence to do something I felt I couldn't do in a comfortable atmosphere.

I purchased one of Julie's beautiful floral paintings, which now hangs on my bedroom wall. It looks so real, I could almost reach out and touch the silky flowers and perfectly formed leaves. Julie has such a talent in the way she captures the spirit of whatever she is painting xx
