I really love the use of wet in wet in this one. I find the technique useful for some things but I have serious doubts I'd be able to control it well enough to create something this beautiful.

(Well, I kinda suck at landscapes anyway.)

Seriously beautiful painting.

I agree...poppy fields are very beautiful. It reminds me of a monet I just did as a study of The masters. I did it in acrylic I haven't posted it yet but I will in the future. We are moving and I packed it up. Lovely gallery..once again.

I love the way the poppies 'blend into' the rest of the field. Lovely colours and technique!

They might be cliched but it doesn't mean they are easy to pull off, you did a great job!
