Paint Party Friday - Poppies in Sunshine

Welcome to Kristin and Eva's Paint Party Friday. This piece is called 'Poppies in Sunshine'. I wanted to do some flowers in sunshine and I chose poppies because I liked the way I have seen them reflected through light.

Off to see everyone else's work this week!
