Flanders Poppies on my mind

After last week's encounter with a field of Flanders Poppies, my mind was quite occupied with the ideas about depicting the folds and wrinkles, capturing light and transparency of the petals without losing either color or texture and at the end, I not only experimented with some cardboard cutouts, string, and paint printing options but also did some ink sketches of one flower that was drying on my table and then ended up back at the field for one more quick sketch at the location.
