This is lovely Marjorie. I love the colours and the poppy getting ready to pop! Lots of life in your painting.

Theres something epic and colossal about this as though the dimensions are over 10 feet by 4. Strangely it reminds me of those much larger than life madonnas of giotto. This really is a fine achievement.

Well I did enjoy using my pastels again! Thanks for the comment Margaret, I don't have exactly the shade I'd like but, hey, artistic licence eh? Thalia, I love that " mushy" description😊, Thankyou Stella and Michael and Rachel - these are sort of challenges from the forum.
