A large, floral-looking abstract, "Open to the Sun" takes its title from the first verse of the hymn,"Joyful, Joyful, We Adore thee." The specific line in that verse is "Hearts unfold like flow'rs before Thee, op'ning to the sun above." The brilliant colors in this painting and the yellow background give it an overall sunny, cheerful feeling, lifting the spirit.
