  Thank you so much! I’m happy to know you like it. I had no idea they signify this. Thank you for telling me!
  I drove recently through a few fields with wild flowers and the poppies got stuck on my mind, so I had to paint them. I love the way they look, especially between wheat. A bit of unexpected color 🙂
  Have a lovely day!

    One of my friends in Brighton had given me a card with poppy and told me it signifies remembrances. Your painting reminded me of her. Thank you Lucy. You too have a lovely day. 🙂

That red is at the same time delicate and intense… Thanks Lucy for share it 🙂

  My pleasure! I’m very happy to hear this, as that was exactly my intention! Poppies are very delicate, so that makes them hard to paint 🙂 Thank you for your kind words!

  Thank you dear Johanna! Always love to hear a positive feedback from a talented artist as you! Actually this painting is made a few weeks ago, but I didn’t had the chance to post it. We’re in process of moving, so it’s impossible to paint right now 🙂 Looking forward to my next one though. I really miss it. Many hugs! xo

You have the canvas in your control, there is a beautiful convergence of imagination, colour and perspective that you craft on your canvas…this is indeed lovely.
Always love the way you create and compose the idea onto the canvas.
Lucy, this is another beautiful creation.
Have lovely weekend.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the time lapse video, Lucy. For those of us who do not have the skill or training, it is a fascinating process; and a humbling one, too. So much goes into it. Your painting is really lovely! 😀
