Evening Sunflower

"Evening Sunflower"
10" x 10"
Oil on hardboard
 

Around her coffee-colored face, she wore a headdress as bright as the sun itself. Sunset having taken its final bow, the event was about to begin. No one suspected that, despite a lifetime of performing, Sunny had butterflies ... in her stomach. 

This is a painting based on the photo on this week's Dailypaintworks.com Challenge.  It's been ages since I entered one of Carol Marine's Challenges, but this one seemed like the perfect subject to paint on the Fourth of July.
