A bright oil painting of Matilija poppies with expressive greens and white brushstrokes all the way to the edge of the board. It gives one the feeling of being immersed amongst the grove and captures the lightness and air that makes these native California flowers magically float . These giant "fried egg" flowers suddenly bloom in the Santa Monica Mountains every May. Painted plein air.
