I was aiming for a very pared back depiction of flowers. The brightness, the sheer starkness of the big, happy, yellow flowers against the cold white backdrop! I wanted it to seem like these flowers have battled through rough days and endured a season of wind and beating rain. And now the sun has finally come out. Some of them are hanging their heads but they are merely resting. They stick together as a bunch. Strength in numbers.
