‘Poppy Perfection’

In this painting the main thing I wanted to convey to the canvas was the transparency of the the petal with the sunlight shining through in the early morning. The reason I titled it ‘Poppy perfection’ was that I caught this flower on photograph at the pinnacle of its existence. It really was a good year in my garden for poppies (See also my other paintings of poppies especially Oil Painting – Still Life – ‘Poppies on Parade’ which was a collection of flowers from my garden) But I still think this was the most perfect and beautiful poppy I think I have ever see. As if to highlight that fact I painted the background quite abstractly to show the comparison. Whilst the background flowers in my opinion needed to be there for the composition of the still life I didn’t want their distraction from the main focus of the Poppy!

‘Poppies in the Wild’

This oil painting was done from a collection of photographs I had taken of poppies growing in my garden. I selected little bits from the photographs and created this picture, almost in the same way I created by oil painting of ‘Poppies on Parade” also to be found in this ‘Poppy Section’.

‘Forever Poppies’

I think I went into poppy overload in this imaginary oil painting! I wanted to create a landscape of vivid, vibrancy. With a suggestion of an eternal swathe of flowers meandering gently into the distance, whilst the foreground offers some degree of texture to the flowers and intermingling grasses.

‘Brash or Shy Poppy?’

Another of My Garden Poppy Original Oil paintings. The first impression I got of this composition, was that the Poppy Bud looks shy and awkward, as if it is hiding behind the open ‘Brash’ Poppy flower in front of it. That is the reason for this picture’s title!

‘Poppies and Pincushions’ – Oil on Board

This Oil painting of Poppies was done from photographs of flowers in my garden. I wanted to capture the light filtering through the delicate petals and show how it changes the deep red of the flowers to different orange hues

‘Poppies and Forget-me-nots’

This Watercolour picture of Poppies was done from my garden, where the Wild, Orange Poppies nestled happily within a carpet of fresh blue Forget-me-nots. The thin papery texture of the flowers allows to sunlight to almost pass through.

Poppies on Parade

This is an Oil painting I did of My Garden Poppies. It would have been so beautiful if they had really all flowered together like this. Sadly however, not so. Instead I amalgamated several weeks worth of My Garden Poppies flowering, using photographs, as they each had their ‘perfect moment’ Once I was happy I had just the images I wanted, I combined them together in a sketch. Almost like arranging soldiers for inspection. Hence I titled the finish painting “Poppies on Parade”!
