Moonflower Painting

I originally wanted to paint something for the retirement home I was working at at the time. My co-workers suggested I paint flowers and I chose poppy flowers because they are known for their calming effect. They also reminded me of the wizard of oz, which fits well with the somewhat surreal style I was going for. In the end the painting turned out way too good so I wanted to keep it, therefore I gave a replacement to the nursing home and kept the original. This work brings a calming, dream-like energy to any space it is placed in and even smells slightly of lavender. I am a bit sad to part with this piece, so I hope it will be well taken care of.
