I always enjoy when artists paint reflective metals.  It has a life-like quality to me.  This is my first attempt at painting silver in a Kenn Backhaus workshop.  It definitely makes you really look at your subject matter for all of the subtleties in the reflections.  Hope you enjoy!

Poppies are one of my favorite flowers.  Their petals are so delicate and translucent as the light shines through them.  I painted this picture for Leslie Saeta's 30 Paintings in 30 Days for September.  This was supposed to be yesterday's painting, but hey, better late than never!
