Poppies from my garden

Deliciously striking colours Carole, and I adore that spot of blue/turquoise.....gorgeous.

Wow Carole! Just gorgeous.

Beautifully dramatic Carole.

Gorgeous colours Carole, just love it.

Wow, those reds are dynamic alongside the darks and greens. I agree with Fiona about the spots of blue. Such a strong piece

That's beautiful Carole, the vibrant colour of the poppy is spot on and I love the dark foreground 😀

Stunning in colour and composition, Carole.

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments. They are, as always very much appreciated. I have been trying to master watercolour but fancied a break and used my pastels. Must say w/c is a lot cleaner to work with. Pastel dust gets everywhere.

Beautiful, so vibrant Carole. I like the little water droplets on the petals.

Drama...just super gorgeous! My very favourite flower, African poppy. Love it, Carole

Thank you Val and Thalia for your lovely comments. Didn't know they were African poppies Thalia. They adorn my garden every year but don't know much about plants

Absolutely gorgeous

Lovely, Carole - shapes and colours.

Wow Carole that's fantastic, so good ….. I love poppies, such a graceful flower. I can't get the hang of pastels and I find them too messy so I'll stick to watercolour and pencils!

Beautiful one Carole!

Nice!
