Such a cool technique with incredible results! The beautifully coloured bright poppies are standouts against it. I wonder if this technique would work with gouache paints... I only have white acrylic paint. 🤔😂

I love these Magenta poppies. I've only used them once and will have to go back to them. They look so beautiful against this stunning cut backdrop.
