White Poppy Frills

11x15 watercolor using White Nights paints on Strathmore 140 lb cold press block done today after a quick pencil sketch on the main outlines of the frilly poppy. Torn tissue paper was collaged/adhered to various areas using matte medium and let dry overnight; this provides texture and unusual color formations. COPYRIGHT 2022 Kay Smith
