Wild poppies growing near  the Brittany coast, France, by Cornish artist Michael Sanders

"This is a very popular image with art societies as a demonstration. Apart from the colours, there are some interesting techniques used in this painting. It isn't often that people get to see an oil painting done from start to finish in a two hour demo, and this sort of scene always gets a round of applause (for which I'm always grateful)".
