Love the colours and textures, and the cropped composition.

That's very nicely done Fiona, quite a change from your last two where you filled the whole page with the things...<br />I am genuinely impressed, damn, it's got more going for it than my effort. Keep this standard up.

Love this poppy Fiona, a definite sense of depth to the many petals and it shows a relaxed approach.

Bursting with energy Fiona and I especially love the centre of the poppy!

Brilliant and striking, Fiona. What a versatile artist you are now - bold and in your face work which I love. (I remember some tentative watercolours a few years ago - just look at your work & fantastic progress since then). Superb

At last a red poppy flowering, it's a fringed opium poppy, gorgeous colours which I can't replicate with paint, but it finishes off the set! I have dedicated it to Alan B. because I know how much he admires my Poppy paintings.....lol.
