The poppy is a vulnerable flower. I like it's delicate petals and striking colour! Painting it so big gives this beautiful flower instant power and energy.

But also: No symbol so strongly recalls the Great War as the poppy.

Original acrylic and oil painting on stretched canvas, ready to hang.

Poem: In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

♻Artist - Graphic designer - Collector ♻My art is as simple and complicated as life itself. Black, white & all colors in between. Tidy, messy, dull, exciting. Not choosing the easiest route but the most interesting one, every day again. I stand before my canvas without a plan. It just happens. Me & my work has changed over the years. But at it’s core much remained the same: inside there's still this 17year old girl, wondering what all this fuss is about. Thankful for the viewers and collectors that love and support my work! ♻Born and raised in Belgium by my Polish babcia (grandmother) and from Polish-Russian descent. Growing up in a colorful international environment which lead to thrive in all kind of conditions and speaking 5 languages. I now finally have a studio of my own based in a disused school in the city of Beringen in Belgium, an area surrounded by existing industrial heritage buildings of a large former mining site. ♻Keywords: family - light - nature - people - chocolate - books - babcia - optimism - ABBA - coalmine - music - kisses - touches ♻ The joy of painting – you’re the creator and guardian for a while until you let the painting go for someone else to love.
