"Talavera Sunflowers"


11 x 14
oil on stretched canvas
available at Dutch Art Gallery

This is a talavera jar that I usually keep small packages of smarties in for my grandchildren, but thought it looked perfect as a vase for these sunflowers. The peppers will go in shrimp and grits tonight, still enjoying the tastes of Charleston!
