This lovely painting of flag and flower is a present reminder of the beauty of the country and resilience of its people. The artist is Mona Schafer Edwards, visit her work at http://www.monaedwards.com/. She wrote and kindly allows the Sunflower Ukraine to be shared.

I would very much like to buy this painting or a print if it becomes available as I am hosting a family – or two – soon to arrive with us here in England.
Thank you for your talent.
