SUNSTROKES
Happy Women’s Day South Africa!!!
My SunStrokes on my painting journey was a very exciting project given my spiritual encounter with the sun and its direct relationship with the sunflower.
Sunflowers also carry great significance as it symbolises loyalty, adoration thanks to the myth of Clytie and Apollo. Furthermore, because of their association with the sun, sunflowers are well-known for being a happy flower and the perfect bloom for a summer flower delivery to brighten someone’s mood!
As the 31st painting in the 50 Small Paintings (beginner book), coupled with 31 days representing a full calendar month; I believe that this sunflowers I painted represent a turn of a new leaf and the beginning of a new season of bliss as I continue to look up to the heavens (the sun, birds, bees and butterflies in the skies).
