Poppies and Forget-Me-Nots
From a photograph taken in Norway last year.
Now. ...What to do Next?
( I said in my last blog that these poppies were to be found in Goathland, North Yorkshire. It's true there were some beautiful poppies there, but later I remembered these with the Forget-Me-Nots were taken in Norway.)

Goathland - Norway.... well they both had Vikings at some point in their history! ;)
The poppies are lovely. I almost never do flowers and I'm always impressed by people who can make them look good. I especially like the one bottom left that's obviousl not been out of the bud very long.
They are exquisite, Chris!
Gorgeous picture, Chris; you've captured the delicacy of the petals just right. They might be from Norway, but they are just as beautiful as the North Yorkshire variety! x
beautiful-thank you
So these won't have a Yorkshire accent? They're still pretty!
I love the crinkly, silky petals of poppies. The ones you've painted have some movement as though the breeze is softly blowing.
Years ago when I took lessons in tole painting, I did some poppies using oils. They were one of my favorite flowers to paint.
Nice job Chris, ....and i loved learning about the channel islands...here I have lived in so cal almost my whole life and didn't know any names of them.
