The matilija poppies are big wonderful wildflowers growing
everywhere in early summer. They are known as the Queen of California
Wildflowers. (Some people think they look like fried eggs.) They are
large, maybe 6" or more across. They are pretty fabulous to see growing
in huge clusters as you drive along. Painting them is a good discipline
in painting white.
