Sunlit Bloom - 9 X 12 Canvas

This painting by Tracy Weinzapfel, titled "Sunlit Bloom," features a radiant and cheerful depiction of a sunflower.

The painting highlights a large sunflower in full bloom, its vibrant yellow and orange petals spreading outwards from a dark, textured center. The petals are detailed with fine lines and shading, giving them a realistic and dynamic appearance. The center of the sunflower is rich with texture and speckled with tiny white highlights, adding depth and interest.

Beside the main bloom is a smaller, budding sunflower, hinting at growth and renewal. Both flowers are supported by strong, green stems and leaves, which provide a beautiful contrast to the bright petals.
