Nicely done. Not overbearing but not too weak. The poppies look very good. The foliage is put in very well also. The background is done good also. Thanks for sharing

Hey Lise!
This is a beautiful creation of these red poppies. The flowers have nice shape and color and contrast nicely with the monotone background. Thanks for the share!

Great job! The overall canvas is quite appealing. I enjoy the background with the abstract shadowing you displayed. It has an oriental style and a very nice choice of reds. Thank you so much for sharing!

I REALLY like this painting! Are you the student or the teacher? Lol. The red and the white work beautifully together. I like the balance of flowers opened versus flowers closed. Well done! Keep painting!
