ABOUT THIS PAINTING:
I can't seem to control myself when I paint sometimes. I just love painting these crazy poppies. They seem to take on a life of their own and sometimes I like to add some extra texture with fancy, textured bits of wonderful papers that are shredded into appropriate shapes and adhered with medium and sealed with varnish. They make the pods seem to explode! Lots of wonderful winsor newton artists oils are thickly painted onto the canvas with a palette knife and I also used a brush just a bit. Hope you enjoy!
