I worked on it for a long time trying to get the colors right

Poppies are my favorite flower

and all the other trees were green and lush

Wild Flowers 20x30 inches michigandunes I worked on it forHiking through the mountains in Portugal with my sister was very special. We had a chance to create some new memories together. I took a lot of photographs, especially of all the flowers. This painting was made from one of my favorite wild flower fields. I thought the shape of the flowers was so unusual. I had never seen anything like it in America. Is there a uniquely shaped flower that youve seen in another country? What do you remember about it
