Description
The poppy flowers, with their shiny, satin petals, are one of my favorites to paint and to view. I painted the flowers in a realistic style to make them bold and the focus of the painting. I placed them on an expressionistic, soft, muted background. The flowing, yellows patches, represent sunshine and the blues express floating waters. This is a happy, colorful, and decorative composition.
I hope it brings you pleasure! Jan
