Colourful, vibrant poppies are set against the mid, denim blue background to give striking visual contrast. My multi-tonal poppies have been proving popular and they fill me with joy to paint. The thick layers of textured paint are applied in ‘impasto’ style using handmade tools so they stand proud of the background.

This has a sister painting called 'Garden Jewels' with a green background shown alongside in the in situ images.
