Can't believe this was painted under such trying conditions, it's beautiful. Glad to hear your arm is on the mend.

Poppies are done beautifully...can not wait to see your products, when you recover..

These are beautiful, painting the centres of the poppies must have taken you ages, and the leaves. Well done.

Just beautiful,Im glad you are getting better such talent!!!

My favourite flowers, wonderfully, vibrantly painted: glad to hear your fractured arm and shoulder are mending; I had a break a year ago or more, and know how long it can take to get back to normal. Good luck with it.

I love this would have this on my wall!!! Beautiful Gina, really gorgeous!!!

Well done and I'm glad you are on the mend, fantastic colour in this lovely painting.

Beautiful, very well done. Glad your on the mend now.

If you can paint like this with a fractured arm, I may as well pack it in now! This just beautiful, and as mentioned before, i would gladly have this on my wall.

Lovely postings. This is gorgeous - I like the composition very much. It's very dramatic. I hope you recover fully soon.

Thank you fellow artists for your very kind comments, I didn't expect to get so many, or any at all. I haven't put any work on this site for quite awhile so it's lovely to hear from like minded people, and so many for both paintings. Thank you. Tony please don't ever give up on art, just keep painting, and looking, listening and reading everything about it.

This painting is special to me, for it was the only painting I managed to paint while nursing a fracture of my dominant right arm and shoulder. I needed to prove to myself I could still paint something with my right arm so had a go with the poppies. Not my usual subject but thought it was simple enough until I found I couldn't paint for too long or paint the top of the canvas, so turned it upside down, like you do to get an objective view of your subject. It worked well with my left arm supporting my right, a very uncomfortable and slow process. I did at least finish it. That was four months ago and the arm is doing well now after physiotherapy I'm glad to say.
