Artist of the House A LITTLE MORE ON OUR FAVORITE HOROLOGICAL ILLUSTRATOR, SUNFLOWERMAN
An eye for style and culture, Sunflowerman is a self-described ‘fashion artist born with a pencil in his hand.’ Across the WatchBox ecosystem, he is regarded as our favorite horological illustrator. Currently grounded in Texas, Sunflowerman has traversed the world with a suitcase full of art supplies, capturing both detailed form, and the intangible qualities of the timepieces we adore. Sunflowerman on painting watches I love the beauty and emotion of watch culture. We have these objects of engineering and obsession and desire that are able to carry generations of history and design. Like watches, my paintings are an homage to the human experience. Sunflowerman on wish lists Building igloos and snowmen and snowball fights while my toes have turned blue and my fingers are biting with the cold are all warm memories for me. In my mid-20’s, a Seiko 7009 A1 and I began an on again off again affair. With a softly textured eggshell dial and years of micro scratches on the crystal casting a thousand miniature shadows it seems, at a glance you’d almost swear it had a snowflake dial. Fate has been preparing me to fall in love with the Grand Seiko SBGA211.
Sunflowerman’s preferred mediums: watercolor, ink and gouache on watercolor paper.
