POPPY FIELD, 8X10, OIL SOLD
I stumbled across this field of poppies in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Nice composition that draws one's eye to the center of the pictorial plane. And such vibrant colors! Pops especially from your red poppies and green fields. Lovely...
Whenever I want a fix of bold color and fearless application of paint, I know I can count on you! This is lovely. I especially like the use of the palette knife on the poppies and the little violet flowers in the foreground.
So nice! I like the way you indicated distance here too!
ReplyDeleteI really like your use of a pallette knife to give depth and definition to the painting and the colors are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful texture! I love the gradual cooling of tones, heading back to those cool blue mountains in the distance. I wish I was there!
ReplyDeleteYes, I too like the way you have created distance in this painting, and of course I am drawn to your lovely oranges and reds.

Always nice to stumble upon those bright red heads of poppies. They hardly ever grow wild in our country!
