"Poppy Elegance" by Carol Peterson ( carolmpeterson1@gmail.com ) 15" x 11" watercolor $100 The poppies were absolutely beautiful this year in our Art Center's garden. They have a redish-orange color and take on many shapes. This painting was done with transparent watercolor and then the background was put in with black gouache mixed with winsor green. The addition of the gouache allows me to lift the color a bit as I did in the bottom right-hand corner.
