A Sunny Day Foldaway Tote - 13 of 20 Remain

This image is from my oil painting of a field of sunflowers in Tuscany.   On a train from Rome to Florence, a handsome Italian sat next to me and became my tour guide.  He explained how Italy has vast acreage of these tall and graceful blooms that make Italy's delicious sunflower oil. I don't remember how it came up, but he told me the Italian word for the noise a dog makes is "abbaiare".   It was the most beautiful word I ever heard because Italian has a lilt all its own, and it was a bittersweet parting when I had to leave the train. But here is this one perfect sunflower as a souvenir that I'll share with you!   Details Materials 100% Recycled Polyester Dimensions 19.7"W × 28.5"H (Straps included); Folds into a 4.5" × 4.5" square zipper closure pouch.
