Fantasy Poppies

I've been doing my take on poppies from my studio since I can't paint outdoors because it is so HOT here.  This is when I wish I were up north to enjoy the cooler temperatures of the summer.  I think my puppy, Lucy, would love it too.  She is so hot.

Also, I hurt my knee and that has put a huge hold on my treks to the woods, etc. for painting.  But I am optimistic that my doctors recommendation of physical therapy 3x a week will strengthen my knee.  He is taking a very conservative approach and that is fine with me.
