Big Half of a Poppy Chair was first
pillows done
working on adding color and
water to the flowers
they wanted their portrait taken together
big poppy is thinking about having a lighter background
...then
she changed her mind
see final image here
and, she is so excited to announce that
she is on the way to her new home!
next
Half of a Purple Poppy started as a graphite sketch
just like all of my paintings
then came reds, pinks and oranges
multiple colors start to appear
it's getting exciting!!!
there was no question, this one wanted to be purple
see final image here
wonder where will purple poppy end up

These paintings are fabulous!!! Love seeing the same image in different compositions and sizes, and of course it's always exciting seeing your process!! Too beautiful!!
These remind me of my childhood growing up in Southern Calif. Bright yellow poppies grew along the mountainsides and made them look like they were on fire. Lovely paintings!
