Poppies
Artwork details
This piece was inspired by the Wizard of Oz and Remembrance Day (UK). Poppies have a long history of symbolism in art. Poppies remind us of relaxation and sleep because of their effect on people.
"All across the meadows, many poppies blossomed, and that were so hypnotic and brilliant in color they nearly dazzled Dorothy's eyes. "Aren't they beautiful?" the girl asked her companions, as she breathed in the spicy scent of the big, bright flowers."
―The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900)
