Poppies #3

The weather is gloomy today so I decided to finish some poppy paintings that I started just before Christmas. I sketched them out on left over paper from the cards I made. They are approximately 4"x5". I completed two in watercolor and two using acrylics. In the acrylic studies, I used tissue paper to add texture to the flowers. 

Note: I used a nude color of paper because that was all I had. Next time I need to use white paper so the colors will be cleaner. 

The water colors are on the right, the acrylics are on the right.
