Poppy Presentation

11x15 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper finished today; this poppy field is similar to one called Pops in the Park.  I'll be doing a demo on a scene similar in August for Painting Friends at Indian Rocks Beach, FL.  It was painted wet in wet but as it is still so dry here I kept rewetting the paper then gave up and worked wet on dry using Daniel Smith, American Journey, DaVinci pigments. Some negative painting of shapes can be seen here and there.
