While driving from Atlanta to Louisiana, I left the highway at Forest, Mississippi to search for a subject to paint. \u00a0Finally, I spotted this gorgeous field full of small yellow flowers. \u00a0Little did I know, that the local dairy farmers had a different opinion of these little beauties. \u00a0The owner of the farm, Bud, and his grandson Matthew, let me know they didn’t think the yellow fields were pretty. \u00a0You’re not from around here are you, they asked? \u00a0“They’re weeds and I hate em”, said Bud. \u00a0The little yellow flowers are full of sulphur and the cows won’t stick their noses in them to get to the grass below. \u00a0As I painted they were spraying and cutting and anything else possible to kill the weeds. \u00a0I painted fast because if Bud had his way they would be gone the next day. \u00a0That is until they came back next year, of which I was assured by Bud, they surely would. \u00a0Oil on 9″ x 12″ linen panel. \u00a0“Available”<\/p>\n
