"Summer Poppies" By Tatiana Myers

"Summer Poppies"
14 x 11", Aqua DUO Oil  and Oil Pastel
on Ampersand  board.

I finally finished my oil painting, waited till it dried and re-finished in with Oil pastels.

Now I'll let it sit around for few days and varnish it... what I normally don't do with my Oil Pastels, but this is a different case. I'm going to spray it with Caran D'Ache "Protector" fixatif. If it will not be enough, perhaps I'll go over it with Golden varnish. I expect the end result to be somewhat glossy, therefore had to take a picture of this painting before varnishing.
