Crisp and colorful print of my original watercolor painting “Maximilian Sunflower” reproduced on high quality textured paper. The prints are 9×12″ and come in a protective plastic sleeve and could be used as a poster or framed.
About this piece:
Helianthus maximiliani is a species of sunflower native to North American prairies. It is an unusual sunflower for having multiple flower heads extending from the central stalk. Sunflower heads are made up of many smaller flowers. The little ones in the center are called disk flowers, and each seeming petal around the edge is also a single type of flower called ray flowers. This composite flower shape works well to attract pollinators and gives them a big landing pad. The name Helianthis is also fun, helios (greek) “sun”+ anthos (Greek) ” flower.”
