‘Geraniums and Poppies' was a lot of fun to paint! I always like a challenge, and the glass vase was just that, to capture the immersion of the stems in the water. Geraniums, on th e other hand, are like happy faces all clustered together like a crowd of people being totally contrasted by the architectural spherical structure of the poppy heads. The cool, dark background helps the composition to come forward while its delicate fading edges creates an ethereal image. The mount and frame together create an ethereal feeling to this delicate watercolour. Show more
