Description: Title: "Afternoon with Sunflowers" ABOUT ARTWORK: The year 2023 gave us an extended spring. The rains didn't stop until well into May. Fogy and overcast days were plentiful. Flowers, butterflies, and all kinds of bugs were everywhere. I turned my attention to the flowers. These works always take longer to create because of the amount of attention they require. If you look closer, you will see some tiny insects I invited to fly around in this painting to keep everything moving. FRAMING & DISPLAY: This plein air painting is on Raphael brand panel, linen mounted on wood. The artwork is sold unframed, so it is not ready to display or hang. You may frame it in any style you like. However, I believe the artwork created in the traditions of the late 19th - early 20th centuries should be framed in the style of those days. I suggest displaying this work in natural, indirect light as this is the light it was created in, and the colors show how I planned it. You may need additional lighting if natural light is not enough. PROCESS & QUALITY: I use the Old Holland brand of oil paints, today's highest quality oil medium, developed by the Dutch masters and proven by time. Each work is painted on oil-primed linen canvas mounted on wood board. Created by Raphael company specifically for professional oil painters, it offers high quality and durability. Combining these products ensures that your painting will not fade and no hole can be poked in the canvas by accident or transport. The worst that can happen is a chip in the paint if the work gets hit straight on. In this case, contact me for restoration. As a rule, with all art, keep this painting away from direct sun and moisture. ABOUT ME: I am an internationally recognized plein air painter. ARC Salon recognized my work among the top 40 international plein air painters. Over the years, I also received recognition from Plein Air Salon, Fine Art Connoisseur, and Best of California Artist and Artisans. Like many masters of plein air painting before me, I work in the same traditions, on location and with the help of the academic training I received in Moscow, Russia. I spend little time in the studio, as most of my works are created en plein air or outdoors. I teach plein air painting on location and academic drawing and painting classes at my studio in Topanga Canyon. I have a YouTube channel.
