The Story Behind “Sunflowers Under Red Skies“

Growing up, my grandfather used to say, “Red sky at night, sailors delight.” I’ve never been much of a sailor, but I can tell you this—I’m always delighted when the sky decides to put on a show like this.

This was one of those evenings where everything aligned. The sun dipped low, the sky erupted in fiery reds, and the sunflowers below seemed to bask in the glow. The contrast between the bold red sky and the golden blooms created a scene that felt alive—full of warmth, energy, and summer spirit.

Sunflowers Under Red Skies celebrates the fleeting magic of summer sunsets. It’s a reminder to pause, look up, and really take in the color and light around us before it fades. These moments don’t last long, but they stay with you.

 

Limited Edition Information

An edition of 25, and then it’s closed.

You get a 12×18 inch image printed on 13×19 inch archival paper. I print it myself. Each print is signed, titled and numbered.

The story behind the photograph comes with it, printed on 9×11 fine art paper, along with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Artist’s proofs (AP) are also made. They are numbered and marked AP, and I use them at my discretion.

Open Edition Information

Open Edition prints are made by Blazing Editions, a fine art print studio I’ve worked with for over a decade. I’ve been through their shop and watched how they work. They print to order with archival pigment inks, on paper or metal, and I trust them with my images.

Paper or Metal?

Paper gives you the most detail and the traditional look. Metal is glossy, vivid and tough, and it hangs without a frame.

Both use archival materials and archival pigment inks.

These are fine art prints. Frames are not included.

Which Size?

When in doubt, I’d go a size up.

The Print Size Guide shows how each size looks in a room.
