What I Painted!

So a while back I wrote a post about some frames I bought at a local thrift store. I decided that I wanted to paint some poppies. I've had a little obsession with poppies for a few years now. I think that they are probably my favourite flowers. I just love the colour of them and how they seem to blow in the breeze. I didn't take and during pictures, as I tend to get into painting too much to remember to.

Before

After

I've put them up in the dining room above our 'sideboard' (an Ikea Expedit bookshelf turned on it's side)

The colours in the painting seem to pick up the colours in the vases above nicely.

I'm not the best painter in the world, but they didn't turn out too shabby if I do say so myself!
