Poppy 8F (45.5×37.9cm) Made by Kao Okunishi

Poppies of various colors are arranged on the screen, and their vividness is eye-catching.

The detailed patterns on the vase and the patterns on the tablecloth and mat are also meticulously drawn, creating a beautiful and rich frame.

The stripes in the background add rhythm to the work and enhance the vibrancy of the flowers.

The vivid colors of the flowers and the warm tones of the background harmonize, creating a gentle and calming atmosphere overall.
