Dine drawing stills, especially on the larger poppy near the center. The folds for the petals are nice too, as in the side poppy. The background you added makes it pop more.

This minimalist approach to flower painting is interesting. Ithas a good range of tones.The composition is good with attention paid to contrast, lighting and texture.. It draws the viewer's eyes. Good luck!.

The colors of this painting just brightened my day from the core of my being. I love these poppies. You have captured them beautifully. The closed pod just adds to the dimension of this picture.

Cool,Steph! Poppies ( particularly 'Opium Poppies' ) are one type of flower that really interests me and I'm enjoying your presentation of these orange specimens a lot!
'Good Show',my friend!

The orange petaled poppies are gorgeous! Very well created with accurate shape, structure and size, I like also the bud and the way you have arranged the two blooms , bud, leave and stem.
Nice warm gold background works well to emphasize the poppies.
beautiful entry for this contest! Best wishes to you!
