Apologies for the photo but it was proving difficult to get the right exposure. In a bid to get the poppies on paper before they faded, I had to forego a shopping excursion with my 2 shopping buddies. Well it was probably worth it as this painting is really vibrant with those shades of yellow and orange against pthalo blue. Over the years I have finally made a friend of pthalo blue which used to take over all my paintings with the least encouragement.
Paul has unleashed something creative in me as I've completed 4 paintings in 2 weeks!
