Sunflowers 1989

"Sunflowers" (1989) by John Bratby (1928-1992) is a vibrant depiction of a sunflower against a bright blue sky. The artist's bold brushstrokes and expressive use of color are evident in the sunflower's petals, which seem to burst forth with energy. The leaves are painted in a similarly lively manner, with a sense of movement and vitality. Bratby's signature style of realism with a touch of abstraction is apparent in this work.
