of piece: Sunflowers
Media: Oil on Canvas
Dimensions: 92.1 x 73 cm
Date : 1888
Vincent Van Gogh was a famous Dutch painter. He was most famously
known for his paintings of sunflowers and his self-portraits. This is one of a
series of two paintings in this collection. This is actually his fourth version
of painting, it has a yellow background. Each version has its own color in the background.
I picked this for my flower collection because I believe it is one of the
brightest color flowers you can get. They are so detailed and all flowers have their
own characteristics, with use of rich yellow colors.

conclusion
This process was not so easy for me I am not a computer fan. I had some challenges but I think i got it. This was a learning experience overall. It also gave me more information on ten different artist I really did not know much about. The part that came naturally was how I was going to find information I needed to know. hard part was decided what to display as my ten pieces of work to talk about. this website is cool to use cant believe how easy it is. All of my artist came together and connected by the power of the flowers. all my pieces are of different types of paintings of flowers.
