Description
A beautiful image of a Sunflower that looks like the sun setting. I captured the bloom with my macro lens, and then used digital effects and textures to create this gorgeous painting. This will be a beautiful piece to add to your home, an office or even a waiting room.
Sunflowers aren�t just another pretty face. Their seeds are packed with nutrition. In a 1 ounce serving size, your body gets 11 percent of the daily requirement of muscle-building protein, 31 percent of the daily requirement of antioxidant selenium and a healthy 51 percent of the daily vitamin E requirement. Sunflower seeds are also a good source of pantothenic acid, copper and manganese. This nutritionally packed snack comes with no trans fat or cholesterol.
The common sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is the wild ancestor of the wide variety of cultivars available today. Originally a small, hairy-leaved plant with 2- to 5-inch flowers, it has been bred to be an enormous specimen. Some mammoth sunflowers such as the "Russian Giant" reach 10 to 15 feet in height, 2 feet in width and sport huge flowers more than a foot in diameter. Kansas selected the common sunflower as its state flower.
