So I've been on a painting kick. Probably because it relaxes me and it takes so much concentration to complete it, that I can't think of anything else while I'm doing it. This particular one was supposed to be for my dad for father's day, but I was too busy to complete it then. I decided to pull it out this past week, this time maybe it can be for my parent's anniversary. Ok so really, this is just a cell phone picture and it just does no justice to what the painting really looks like.
And this one would be for my awesome aunt :) I don't know where I would be without her.
Sunflowers are symbolic of adoration. Sunflowers turn their heads to the sun, which is the origin of their common name. Isn't that a coincidence. Adoration: the act of paying honor/ devoted love. Wow, so "this one's for yew aunt jenny". I found the meaning of this before I painted it yesterday, its really touching to me actually. This painting was done with love for someone I look up to, for someone I know who will always be there, for the person that means so much to me.. for the one I know I can come to with anything. Perhaps the most important: the person who has taught me more than I can ever thank her for.
Painting is my clutch just like photography. It relaxes me, it makes me feel accomplished, it makes me feel worthy and talented. When times are tough, paint. When all else fails, paint. When your parents don't appreciate your painting, paint for someone else. hahahahhhahaaa
toodles.

OMG!!! I am speechless. I can't even describe how awesomely talented you are. You really need to start selling you paintings! I'll be your best customer :) Um, I think you found your hobby. Thank you so much for the kind words, you are too sweet. All my love. -Aunt Jen
I really wish I knew where to sell my paintings, I would love to do that!! And your welcome :) Can't wait for you to see it.. I think it's 20x24, you can put a frame around it because the sides are a lot slimmer than I thought.. or you can leave it
