Saturday Is For Art
There are several pictures of my sunflowers that I want to post and share with you, so I think, rather than post old art, I will post new photos of the sunflowers. We are having a great summer for growing flowers. Plenty of rain and sunshine, I guess that is all it takes. I am not a green thumb type person, so the success of my flowers has gone far beyond my expectations. I hope you enjoy these shots.

I like the sunflowers but what I am really interested in is the architechture or your home and the one in the background of the first picture. I visualize big porches and detailed outside wood work.
These are old brick homes in Northside, built after 1900, but before WWI. They are nice old homes, and my street has a few nice examples of this period architecture.
I LOVE your sunflowers, Mr. Flower Thoughts! How tall are they? They're magnificent.
When I was a little girl, the first time I ever saw a sunflower, I thought it was a person -- but then, I was also inclined to see all kinds of animals and people in the clouds. :O)!
Thanks for sharing!
Summer
I think some are well over 6 feet, perhaps as much as 8 feet or better. With all this rain, I hope they will stay upright throughout their life cycle. I want to capture them in pictures.
After all, Van Gogh was inspired by them, why wouldn't you be?
