A Field of Golden Suns, oil on canvas, 100 x 100 x 2 cm
A Field of Golden Suns is a bold celebration of summer at its most wild and unapologetic. A profusion of sunflowers fills the canvas, their golden faces jostling for space amongst tangled stems, flashes of green and expressive sweeps of colour.
The flowers twist, lean and tumble into one another, creating a sense of beautiful chaos and movement. Bold marks and spontaneous drips bring an almost untamed energy to the painting, while luminous yellows and warm golden tones capture the feeling of sunlight at the height of summer.
Each sunflower becomes a small sun; proud, imperfect and gloriously alive. Together they create a landscape that seems to stretch beyond the edges of the canvas, abundant with colour, warmth and life.
A Field of Golden Suns is a painting about freedom, vitality and the beauty of things allowed to grow wild.
