| Five Poppies, original |
Looking at this painting, I realized that the bottom third of the painting was mostly stems and the painting seemed top heavy. I needed to do something to add more "weight" to the bottom.
I think the leaf forms torn from patterned paper adds the appropriate amount of interest and weight to this painting. Thanks to Jim for pointing out the excessive "steminosity" in the original version. Now the revised version is correctly "stemified."

words can't express how much I love your work. This is fabulous on every level.
Just love these poppies, and I do prefer the revised version. I think it's the increased darks that really gel the composition. I'd love to see it real life to appreciate the texture.
Love where you went with this Carol! So contemporary too.
Thanks for sharing the progression for found it interesting on your thought process + changes.
Beautiful - the textures, color and composition are wonderful.
