She truly believed in painting the flower close up to show the full detail, instead of painting a flower to the true scale whereas you would only see a tiny flower. The overall feeling this painting presents to the eyes is radiance. With its bright reds & oranges it brings a sense of warmth. The painting pulls in the viewer with its abstract light. Because of the scale of this painting it shows the beauty of flowers and gives it more of a intensity.
I think the original of this piece is supposed to be smaller, but the viewer still sees the flower in a huge perspective because the angle and position from which the painting was created makes the viewer feel like they are very close to the painting anyway. The entire composition is consumed by the poppy and the edges of some petals are actually cut off because the close up is so great. The intimacy almost forces the viewer to stop just to take in every detail.

The background also has a fuzzy grey which occupies the edges of the focus on the flower.
The daughter is just the same, but her big, bluish eyes really accentuate her youthfulness. The colors all work together to unify the painting. The artist creates a background of earth-tones to highlight the golden-red of the woman’s dress and the white of the daughter’s dress pops against the red drawing focus to the young subject.

Fear and frustration are the first feelings that pop in my heart when I have to write a paper. From dawn to dusk, I feel overwhelmed, inadequate and apprehensive when I have to write. For my agony writing an essay has become my nightmare. I abominate the feeling of staring at a blank piece of paper with the knowledge that I am expected to fill it with creative ideas and appropriable writing techniques. In fact, every time I just hope that my brain will come with something creative that I could start with.
I like to think of it as the " oh what the _ _ _ _!" factor (all those reading, theres more than one word to put into those blanks! =P) Its something you don't expect to happen, and it makes you want to keep reading, because now everything has just changed.
