I'd stack your poppies against Monet or van Gogh any day. You know how to star them but add drama. Most poppy pictures lure you only to find nothing but the poppies. This picture adds drama in the darkness beyond. Another true winner.
Inspirational! I love the way you've captured the quality of light – even though much of the image is in shadow. And suggested the poppies without too much detail …
Just started to receive the daily postcards as, apart from being in awe of Julie's talent, I wanted something to inspire me to start painting again. Now I understand that I'll never be able to paint this well so I think I'll give up, save myself the anguish and just enjoy the "view" every day instead!
I’m so sorry I missed this auction because I would’ve liked to at least bid on this painting. Unfortunately I am in the back country of Idaho and Wi-Fi is almost nonexistent. I was hoping it hadn’t sold by the time I got to it but ,alas. Hopefully you’ll be inclined to do more landscapes.
Love your paintings, thanks for sending.
To paint a complex beautiful work so small, each area is exquisite in color & tone. A fine fishing excursion. Do you do larger work from your daily paintings?
Amazing light always, no hesitation, love your work.
