Red Poppy
My love of flowers continues...
The poppy flower is a common symbol that has been used to represent everything from peace to death and even simply sleep. When used on tombstones, poppies represent eternal sleep since ancient times. This symbolism was referenced in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, in which a mystical poppy flower field could make the characters sleep forever.
Poppies became associated with peace and sacrifice for the greater good after world war 1 broke out in northern France. Shortly after the battle, poppies grew around the bodies of fallen soldiers. They were one of only a few plants that regrew after the war ended.
Each painting in the “Color Pop” Series is a different flower surrounded by a different color. These paintings can be hung individually or all together on one wall to complete a rainbow of colors and flowers.
