First red poppy

There have been a few yellow California poppies around but this is the first red poppy in my garden. Looks like it's going to be a good year for poppies. Now I think my next painting will be some red poppies in front of a white picket fence. I think this will be a better background than the weeds! I'm encouraged by the geraniums...maybe I can actually paint a poppy that looks like a poppy!
