Colourful Poppies on the Table

Poppies may be my favourite flower. Each bloom seems to carry its own distinct personality. This painting captures the quiet beauty of watching their delicate petals unfold in the daylight. Though perhaps not quite so slowly, as they seem to shift and move constantly throughout the painting process.
The warm tones throughout the piece are intended to bring a sense of lightness and gently uplift the mood of a space.
