Description
My childhood home was simple, but Mom decorated it with her many touches, love. Outside the front door amidst the cracks in the old sidewalk grew giant red poppies.
I ask her how she was able to get them to grow, and she would say, “Simple. Just toss the seeds and walk on by.”
I tried that, and it did not work for me. I dug some of Mom’s plants and took them home to transplant in my yard. They did not grow. I bought plants at the garden center. After Twenty-eight years, I was able to have one successful plant. Two years later, before it bloomed, we moved away.
Mom passed away in 2013. I miss both Mom and her poppies.
The painting is watercolor on Arches 140 pound Cold-Pressed paper.

Brilliant reds and oranges much like the poppies here. I'm not sure why, but my poppies pop each year. If you lived close I'd give you some.
