Pompous Poppy

22x15 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper, painted wet in wet several years ago.  It is my favorite poppy painting of all the ones I've done and hope it never sells.  It won a signature point for me with the Dallas group Southwestern Watercolor Society.  With its pure whites and abstract background, it really glows in a frame on the wall.
