Beneath them, printed umbels fan out in crisp black and white, a single daisy turns its sunny face to the light, and slender mint green stems wander down into washes of lime, ochre and soft sky blue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal botanical forms are printed into the underlying layers, then worked over with acrylic, pencil and charcoal. The printed marks keep the fine detail of the real plants, while loose, confident brushwork gives the poppies their warmth and movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting has a joyful, energetic feel, like the moment a summer garden catches the sun and decides to show off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunning up one of the stems, written in a small hand, is the line of prose:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e“Just popping by for a splash of excitement.”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTucked in among the leaves, the phrase is there to be found rather than announced.
