Poppies at night

“That scary night, she closed her eyes and ran towards the poppy field.
There wasn’t anywhere else she knew to seek shelter.
She felt safe amongst that scarlet bed, as thousands of poppies stood tall like brave soldiers to let her sleep peacefully.”
- Maria Mappilassery
My imagination and thoughts behind every scene make me tell a story about it.
Have you been to a poppy field at night? I haven’t, but I can imagine what these pretty flowers may be doing at night.
Hope this painting could take you too to an imaginary world where you may find solace amongst this scarlet hues.
I have used premium quality acrylic paints on 220 gsm A3 sized paper (29.7cms x 42 cms).
I would like to suggest a white wide border and a black wooden frame for this piece.

Hello! Welcome to my profile, thank you for stopping by.

I am Maria George, a self taught artist from Adelaide, South Australia. My pseudonym is Maria Mappilassery.

I am an aesthetic and emotive person who expresses thoughts and emotions through painting and poetry. You may notice that most of my creations are based on nature because of my admiration for its pure beauty.
I have understood that no matter where we go, nature is abundant and a great teacher if we learn to observe.

I have always admired oil paints for their long life and special charm but I am currently working with an acrylic medium and want to eventually experiment with different styles. I believe each medium has its own specialty that helps the artist produce unique results.
