Poppies

Poppies and green and blue disks are suspended in a 7'' diameter circle of resin. The artwork is position on a wooden stand, illuminated from behind by the afternoon light.

7'' diameter, resin, alcohol ink, dried poppies.

A commission for my dear friend's brother.

The direction was "the plants he said he likes are poppies, grasses like bamboo, and acacia trees and he likes blue and green as colors" - I dyed 8 total colored disks to choose from for the piece. I used 6 of them in the final design, and submerged them in the first layer of resin. 

From there I laid out the design of the poppies, layered pours for depth, sanded the back for a frosted appearance and smooth exterior.
