Wow, Linda -- congratulations! This is an absolutely gorgeous painting. Makes me wish I'd remembered to start some poppies this year, and makes me think of my own mother and how much she enjoyed her flowers. Fantastic job.
Congratulations, Linda! Great news for you!I love this painting, but seriously, how can anybody not to like poppies when those are painted well?!.. And yours are beautiful!
So nice, Linda. The composition and the poses of the poppies, some facing us, some not, bent over and srtaight, all contribute to the livliness of this painting.
Amy, I planted some poppies but they are really struggling to survive in this heat; the poppies I painted here have been weed-whacked down. My brother didn't know the green plant was a flower. No flower appeared this year.
Tatiana,thank you for your kind words about these poppies.
Cecelia, I like the way you described the poppies in your comments. Thank you so much.
Congratulations, Linda! Your work is beautiful, and it's great that it is receiving high recognition!!!
Congratulations Linda. The Keystone National is the best of the best!
Thank you so much Claire and Mary Beth.
