Red Poppies


My latest watercolor of Red Poppies.
Arches 9 x 12 cold press watercolor block
Daniel Smith watercolors
With this painting I did something different with the background. Usually I'd mix on my palette sap green and FUB to get a dark value of green. This time I applied the sap green first and then over that added my FUB. This was so much easier and I liked the way it looks once it dried.

This is beautiful! I really like the strong lines and vibrants colors.
