With this painting, I challenged myself to use a limited palette using only colors that I love. I wanted to paint the poppies I saw on the property of The Silverado Resort in Napa, CA. During my visit there, the weather was overcast but the poppies were so bright it felt like they were vibrating. I knew I could really have some fun artistically.
And boy did it pay off! This piece won BEST IN SHOW in “Art Blooms,” an exhibit sponsored by TESA: The Exhibiting Society of Artists in Tampa Bay, Florida. It was commended for mastery of technique, compositional excellence and vibrant use of a limited palette. It’s a small piece that makes a big impact.
Signed Original Watercolor, Sealed and Mounted on a Cradled Wood Panel within a Black Floating Frame
Overall Dimension: 13x13”
