Description
I wanted to try painting a younger sunflower bloom in full afternoon sunlight. I was thinking of the Gordon Lightfoot song and album the "Summer Side of Life" which was released in September 1971. Linda and I would see Gordon Lightfoot at Queens University. We also went to a Stevie Wonder Concert at Queens. Those were great performances.
Life is made up of choices everyday. I strive to base my decisions solely on merit. The packaging is not what creates the way forward. It is important to choose wisely. I try to pick the happy, positive, creative and sunny side of life. Like the sunflower I turn toward the light. I have the solar panels to prove it.
Vincent would have loved to paint those flowers. I know I did. I used a small smooth panel and broad, rough brush strokes. I used a lot of paint too.

When I read the stories behind the great artists and scientists, I discover that they were no different than the rest of us... trying to find their way. Thank you so much Sunny. Being happy and positive is the only way to live.
