Sunflower paintings are a favorite of oil and acrylic artists. Many artist have wanted to have the experience of painting those free and expressive lines found in the flower petals just like Van Gogh`s paintings of his sunflowers .
Acrylic paints are made from mixing colour pigments with a liquid plastic medium. The paints can be diluted or “thinned out” with water. Artists save time working with acrylics. Acrylics are healthier and more environmentally friendly than oil based paints and solvents such as turpentine.
