2025
This Himalayan Blue Poppy (Maquette) is an original 8×8 inch acrylic painting on wood panel, created as an intimate study exploring color, movement, and atmosphere. Painted with expressive, gestural brushwork, the bloom emerges from a deep, verdant ground — luminous blues unfolding against saturated greens with flashes of vivid red and orange.
Rather than a botanical illustration, the poppy is treated as a living presence, oscillating between abstraction and form. Thick, confident marks and layered paint capture the plant’s fragility and intensity, evoking the rare and fleeting nature of the Himalayan blue poppy itself.
As a maquette, this work functions as a distilled moment within a larger visual language — a standalone piece that holds its own while offering insight into the artist’s process and ongoing exploration of nature, vitality, and transformation.
