Default Help looking for a painting?

Hi there,

I'm looking for the artist and title of a painting for a gift (and I only have a description of the painting); I'm hoping someone can help!

The painting is of a woman laying down and being strangled/choked by red poppies?

Thanks,
Jaimie

Reminds me of Ophelia. Poppies symbolize endless sleep.

Ashes of laughter
The ghost is clear
Why do the best things always disappear?
Like Ophelia.......

I'm still waitin' for
the second coming
of Ophelia
come back home

Thanks for your thougths Eirene and although I looked up some paintings that featured Ophelia, I couldn't find the right one (the painting I'm looking for is quite modern).

Anyone else have any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Jaimie
