Hi F Webb, thank you for your post. I'm actually working on another poppy painting now for an upcoming show. Wish I could get art posted faster but as you say, life gets in the way! I encourage you to pick up your paintbrush. Turning 40 motivated me to get back to painting. I figured, what am I waiting for? Best of luck to you and thanks again for your kind comments. Shelli

Hi Shelli, I like very much 'Red Flowers' #2. Love the bold colors & simple design. It makes a strong visual statement. I'm attracted to bold bright colors. I will keep a look out for your other work. I plan to do some painting soon myself. I loved art when I was a girl in high school. I took 6 years of art & won an art contest. However, after school, life got in the way. Now, I'm at a place in life where I'm thinking about taking it up again. I've been looking at art works by other people & I'm getting inspired. Good luck to you & keep up your beautiful work.

Hi A Regan, I love poppies too but they would rather wither and die than grow in my yard so I decided to paint them instead of plant them. Thank you for your comment - I appreciate the encouragement! Shelli

Shelli, I love the red flowers No. 2. Looks like poppies, which I am a sucker for because they pop up in my garden and I have never planted them....a pleasant gift as was discovering your painting.

Thank you for the love!

Gorgeous!

Weekend forecast is for rain, snow and wind. Sounds like a great weekend to paint!

Welcome to my UGallery studio! I'm excited to be here and interact with all of you art lovers. I look forward to adding more pieces. Enjoy art! Shelli
