What Is the Sunflower Art Competition All About
Sunflowers are known for their vibrant colour and towering presence in gardens around the world. They symbolise joy, warmth, and positivity—qualities we want to see reflected in your artwork! This competition isn’t just about gardening; it’s about celebrating the beauty of sunflowers through your unique artistic perspective. Whether you’re inspired by their bold, golden petals or their tall, sturdy stems, we want to see how sunflowers inspire you!
