A single sunflower bends on its stem beside a rough wooden fence post, drawn in charcoal and graphite. Rich tonal shading moves through soft greys and deep blacks, the velvety dark centre and frayed petals built from smudged and crisp marks against a pale background. Quiet and slightly melancholic, the composition fills the frame while leaving wide, breathing room around the bloom.
