Bouquet – yellow poppies in silver light
Painting on canvas lifts yellow poppies across two upright canvases that together make a single bunch. The heads are open and turned in different directions, their centres moss green and serrated. The ground is silver-grey, sown thickly with fine bright droplets. Everything lives off the contrast between the warm yellow and the cold grey.
Technique & Texture
The petals are laid with a palette knife in thick slices that remain visible from the side. Between the yellow and the flower centre the paint is scraped back to the pale base, so each head gains its own bright rim. The stems are pulled downward in long, dark, partly ragged strokes.
The Motif
The left canvas holds four open heads and two buds, the right six flowers in a wider fan. At the foot of both panels the stems gather into a dense, dark sheaf, as though the bunch had been tied. The green buds on thin twigs reach highest and close the silhouette.
Styling & Placement
Yellow in grey reads fresh without pushing. As an abstract painting built from only two notes, it picks no argument with any scheme: a kitchen, a dining room, a working corner or a hallway, beside white walls, grey textiles and pale oak.

The diptych wants to be seen close up: fix the hanging height before the size.
