Painting of two withered sunflower heads gone to seed, one central and one at the right edge, in loose yellow-green and ochre brushstrokes on a dark green background.

Sunflowers Gone to Seed

Two withered sunflower heads, faded to seed, sit on a green ground, one dominant at the center and a second partly visible at the right edge. Thick, short directional brushstrokes in ochre, pale yellow-green and blue-grey build the florets against dark green and near-black strokes in a loose oil painting.

Español: Girasoles marchitos en semilla

Dos cabezas de girasol marchitas, ya secas y en semilla, descansan sobre un fondo verde; una domina el centro y la otra asoma parcialmente en el borde derecho. Pinceladas gruesas, cortas y direccionales en ocre, verde amarillento pálido y gris azulado construyen los pétalos sobre trazos de verde oscuro y casi negro.
