Sunny Days 36"X48" Acrylic on Board
"Sunny Days" is an evocative painting by Lesley Friedmann, reflecting her deep appreciation for the natural beauty of Victoria, BC, Canada. Crafted from her deck during a warm summer, the artwork features a vibrant assembly of sunflowers, which are among Lesley's favorite florals to cultivate. These sunflowers bring a burst of brightness to her garden, set against the enduring backdrop of the Douglas Fir forest and the peeks of the Salish Sea beyond. The painting captures the noble stature of the sunflowers and the trees, a testament to their majestic and upright grace. On a memorable morning, as Lesley worked on this piece, a gentle mist from the ocean enveloped the distant islands, lending a layer of softness and tranquility to the serene landscape. "Sunny Days" is a dynamic and colorful composition, showcasing Lesley's talent for transforming the scenic views before her into stunning works of art. Her skillful brushwork and the interplay of light and color underscore the beauty and serenity of her surroundings, making "Sunny Days" not just a painting but an experience of the peaceful yet powerful spirit of nature.
