Get unique prints directly from the artist! "P for Poppies" - beautiful vintage style art print of my original watercolor and ink painting; botanical illustration. It's part of the "Flower Alphabet" series. This piece features red poppy flowers. I used an old dictionary page as a background to create an antique and slightly bohemian feel.

I like the contrast of gentle watercolor and sharp black ink lines. It adds dynamic to the artwork. It also arouses associations with an antique botanical illustration. The vibrant red will add color to any room, while the sepia background calms it down a little bit.

The Poppy is one of the most widely used symbolic flower around the world. Ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Roman societies linked it with sleep due the sedative effect of the plant’s sap. The Victorians gave the flower a variety of meanings, including consolation for loss, deep sleep, and extravagance. Chinese and Japanese flower experts recommend the Poppy for couples because it means a deep and passionate love between two people. The red Poppy is the traditional flower of remembrance for Europe and North America.
