Poppies Stand Tall on Etsy

Newly Listed Original Watercolor Painting

Poppies Stand Tall

A more traditional composition of bright red poppies, orange and yellow where the sunlight touches the petals. It was just before dusk on a late summer day when I took the reference photos in a neighbor's garden. The poppy's vivid yet soft, tissue paper petals always capture my attention.

Looking for the lovely...

I'm Christy. I'm inspired by nature to create watercolor artwork of Montana landscapes. It's an adventure that will never end.

I'm finding so many inspirations for new artwork with the changing seasons. My eye is attentive to what might be happening outside my window. I think about what color combinations and mixes would be gorgeous in a painting. I am intrigued with exploring all the options in tools and art mediums. Many of these posts come from the ideas I love to share with other creatives.

With a full life of other responsibilities, I still make time to be an artist. Everyday, there's a sunrise or a sunset, a beautiful sweeping of clouds across the sky, a frost on the trees or birds perched at the feeders. I find beauty in it all. I take that inspiration and move to my art table so I can find a way to translate it onto paper.

Enjoy exploring these tidbits of watercolor and art related adventures. Be sure to comment and ask questions! I am so happy you're here.
