A "Journal of Paintings" by Jon Conkey,
Themeworks was a "one-year-long" record of my progress in the art of "oil painting", and an attempt to paint 365 paintings in one year. Changing the monthly theme allowed me to focus on subjects I may not have otherwise painted. As an artist, I was looking for discovery and breakthroughs in my works through this daily practice.

# 68 Poppies
Big orange poppies are opening from their thistle-like stocks, the color of this flower is very intense to the eye. If there are enough poppies around, the sky actually appears a deeper blue as one's eye compensates for balance. JLC
