Impasto is really neat when it's super thick. This painting of poppies was done with a few modified palette knives that weren't available in the store, so Ruth made her own to show the progression in size with flowers in the distance being smaller and bigger in the foreground. This is 3rd in a series of a field of flowers, so you have 3 chances to get in on the fun.

​

This will brighten up any room with great cheer and the 3-dimension of the paint makes the painting come to life. The flowers make their own shadows. When Ruth was trying to get in a gallery, she was told to go home and practice painting the shadows, when that's boring and the whole point is to see the paint do that. So here it is available to you. Buy now before people start showing up at this site.
