If you give me flowers, what of course would I do? Either photograph them or draw a picture of them. These cheery yellow flowers are a variety of sunflower, perhaps more wild than the huge heads commercially used for seeds and oil. A friend gave me a handful from her garden and I brought them to my studio. I had just gotten back from Kansas and recall seeing these by the side of the road, planted to keep Kansas the "Sunflower State." I miss my friend in Kansas. I'll never see her again, at least in this world.
