Description
The row of sunflowers was outlined in bistre ink and the sunflowers lightly coloured in with coloured pencil. Bistre ink is so enjoyable because it can be made from chimney soot and has a unique warm brown colour.

Hi Diana, I've enjoyed your site. I especially like "Bistre Sunflowers" and your photo "Cloud Pool". The freeness and sketchiness of the sunflower painting is exciting and fresh -sort of like a Zen painting. Also, there is something of Arshile Gorky ("biomorphoc forms") created by the negative space around the sunflowers. Very appealing. (I've just come back from the Gorky Retrospective at the Philadelphia Art Museum - a blockbluster. I also very much like the "Cloud Pool" photo. It would make for a terrific painting, I think. The batik-like quality of some of my work is just that. I use 'masking' the latex waterbase watercolor application in doing some of my acrylic work. I paint, apply masking compound on areas I want to save. Then, I paint over the panel and rub out the masking to reveal the paint below. Regards, Ray
