Three matilija poppies bloom like the sun in miniature against an open, bright blue sky. Delicate crinkled white petals and bright yellow centers with curling sage green leaves. Native to Ventura county, these striking flowers capture the palette of the coastline. These poppies flourish in unexpected places and are able to thrive after wildfires because of their extensive roots. They represent perseverance and renewal.
Paired with delicate bumblebees, the flowers in this painting are an ode to the resilient beauty of the wild Southern California landscape, and a celebration of the simplicity of a perfect sunny day.
Painted with Winsor & Newton and Gamblin oils on stretched canvas, finished with a satin varnish for richness and long-term protection. Framed in a solid maple wood floater frame, wired and ready to hang.
