Sunflowers, third version, by Van Gogh, 1888

This famous Van Gogh painting is one of my favorites. This image is actually one of many in a series that Van Gogh completed in order to decorate his studio. He wanted to make it more welcoming for his friend, Paul Gauguin, who was to stay with him. The thick impasto application of the paint on the sunflowers makes them look full bodied and heavy-headed, as though the flowers could lean out of the painting at you!
