Thank you! The reference photo is in my gallery - I didn't make the main daisy quite bigh enough, but it was good fun. Achieving the impasto yellow centre was a challenge with student quality oil pastels, but I've purchased some better ones now.

Thank you! I only did the acrylic layer as I didn't have any dark green pastel paper, but acrylic gesso and paint have provided a good tooth and base colour for this one.

Thanks Nadia. I wanted the background really dark, but didn't want to use black, so it is crimson blended with various dark greens.
Thanks for giving me the idea to do this painting!
