Poppies Please

5x12 watercolor on gessoed matboard done last week using no references.  I wanted to paint a floral that was brightly colored and would look great in a horizontal format.  The background was left white.  Splatters were added when dry with a loaded brush.

This is gorgeous. You are a prolific painter. Don't know how I missed your blog before. Cool stuff. The inks look fun. You do amazing watercolors.
