An ode to the intoxicating opium poppy, Papaver somniferum. A plant that beguiles and bewitches, a heady mixture of light and dark, wiry, and delicate. Tissue paper flowers dance in the evening breeze, and fat seed pods rattle when they are disturbed. A plant - and painting- that is hard to forget.
