Poppy Daydream is a beautifully evocative limited edition artwork by Sherree Valentine-Daines, one of Britain's most celebrated contemporary impressionist painters. Known for her ability to capture fleeting moments of light, innocence, and emotion, Valentine-Daines combines technical mastery with heartfelt storytelling, creating works that are both timeless and full of life.
In this exquisite piece, a young girl sits dreamily in a lush green meadow scattered with vibrant red poppies. Dressed in a simple white dress, she appears lost in thought, absorbed in the peaceful rhythm of her surroundings. The composition radiates tranquillity and nostalgia - a vision of childhood untouched by time. Valentine-Daines' brushwork, both expressive and delicate, conveys the shimmer of sunlight across the field and the gentle movement of summer air, bringing the entire scene to life.
Painted in the artist's distinctive impressionist style, Poppy Daydream reflects her gift for capturing the beauty of ordinary moments with grace and sensitivity. Each brushstroke feels instinctive yet refined, layering texture and tone to create a soft, almost dreamlike atmosphere. The palette - a harmony of warm greens, soft whites, and the vivid scarlet of the poppies - enhances the artwork's emotional warmth, inviting viewers to pause and reflect on the simple joys of nature and memory.
Presented as an embellished canvas on board, Poppy Daydream has been hand-finished to enhance the depth and luminosity of the original oil painting. The result is a piece that feels tactile and personal, as though the artist's hand is still present in every detail.
Measuring 10 x 12 inches (artwork size) and 19 x 21 inches when framed, this charming edition is presented in a classic white frame with gold detailing, chosen to complement the soft tones of the artwork while adding a touch of elegance. Produced as a limited edition of 195, each print is individually hand-signed and numbered by Sherree Valentine-Daines, and comes complete with a certificate of authenticity.
