If you like the luxe look, these poppies on a rich green and gold leaf background, fit the bill!

The thick impasto application of paint makes the semi-abstract poppies stand proud of the deep green background and the gold table top gives the composition a warm glow.

The textured paint and gold leaf mean this painting changes in different lighting conditions which are shown in the photographs.

Smooth brushwork for the background and impasto application for the flowers, stems and vase ensures the viewer sees contrasts in textures as well as in colours.
