Floor mats

Finishing off a couple of floor mats I had started a while ago before I begin a commission I have for two floor mats. One is on canvas and the other an experiment with linoleum since I found the mats I walked on quite a bit weren't really standing up. Using linoleum is becoming quite popular.

I was obsessing over doing these sunflowers but Carole mentioned her four year old grandson wouldn't have any part of sketching out a design with her recently and just "went at it:" with the paintbrush. So I took a page from young Dennis' book and did the same...just splat it out. I must do this more often!
