Peach Poppies in a Warm Breeze — Original Acrylic Painting
Couldn't load pickup availability
"Peach Poppies in a Warm Breeze" fills the canvas with a generous cluster of peach and cream poppies, their surfaces sanded back in places to reveal the warm pinks and reds buried beneath, rising from deep sage-green stems built up in thick impasto strokes that catch light across the surface. Iridescent gold paint threads through the blooms, giving the flowers a luminous quality that shifts as the light in the room moves through the day — the painting behaves differently depending on where you stand, and changes with the hours. The sky behind them — a layered sage and soft aqua — has the hazy warmth of early morning, that particular hour when low light grazes across a garden in full bloom. This is a painting about that specific, fleeting quality of light.
At 12x12 inches, this piece works beautifully in smaller spaces that need warmth and life — a bedside wall, a kitchen, a reading nook, an entryway — anywhere a single painting can quietly change the feel of a room. The warm peach, cream, and gold palette is unusually versatile, moving easily between contemporary and traditional interiors. For collectors who love the poppy series, this one sits apart: softer in mood, more intimate in scale, and lit from within by that iridescent gold.

About Original Artwork
Paint Media
Denise paints with archival quality acrylic paints including Golden Acrylic Paints and mediums as well as Nova Paints. There can be mixed media here and there such as charcoal, colored pencil and waxed crayon.
Substrate
Denise paints on cradled hardboard and gessoed canvas. Pieces that are 24x36 inches or smaller, are painted on cradled hardboard 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches deep with paint finished edges matching the overall color scheme of the painting.
Larger pieces on canvas are painted while tacked to a large hardboard frame. This way I can still sand away as much as I want with a hard surface backing the painting.
The painting is then removed and reframed on stretcher bars for a more lightweight finished artwork which is easier to ship and easier to hang.
Finish
All artwork have been finished with a clear gloss or semi gloss water-based acrylic polymer varnish with Ultra Violet Light Stabilizers [UVLS] that protects interior acrylic paintings from dust and ultraviolet light.
In the event that you hang your painting in the dining room and it get splattered with spaghetti sauce (believe me this can happen), the painting can be wiped clean to bring it back to it's intended design.
