Original Description
"Happy As A Big Sunflower" by contemporary British artist Matthew Hastings is an exuberant celebration of nature’s vibrancy and emotional resonance. Created during Hastings’ prolific botanical period in the early 2010s, this oil painting showcases his distinctive post-impressionist style blended with modern expressionism. The artwork features a towering sunflower bursting with golden yellows and ochres against a dynamic brushstroke background, conveying both joyful energy and contemplative depth. Measuring approximately 90x120cm, its considerable scale allows for immersive viewing. Hastings gained recognition alongside contemporaries like David Hockney for reinvigorating floral subject matter with contemporary sensibilities, though his works maintain accessible emotional appeal compared to conceptual contemporaries like Marc Quinn. Art historians note how this particular piece exemplifies Hastings’ mastery of translating Van Gogh’s chromatic intensity through contemporary compositional techniques.
For interior applications, this masterpiece harmonizes exceptionally with transitional or modern farmhouse decors. Position it as a focal point above a console table in an entryway or as uplifting office decor behind a minimalist desk - ideally placed where natural light can animate its golden tones. The warm palette complements gray or navy feature walls beautifully, while its substantial dimensions demand at least 3-4 feet of clear wall space for proper visual balance. Pair with matte black frames for contemporary settings or distressed gold frames in traditional interiors. In corporate environments, it injects vitality into creative workspaces or reception areas when displayed alongside sleek furniture and botanical accent pieces. For residential spaces, consider echoing its sunflower yellows through throw pillows or ceramic accessories while maintaining neutral larger furnishings to prevent visual competition.
