Description
This watercolor is a close-up of a blooming Prickly Pear paddle, showing the purple hues found on the paddles. While driving along the roads in Arizona, it is not uncommon to see large sections of Prickly Pears. . . . . . When the artist moved from her home state of Oregon in 2008, she expected to miss the wonderful colors found in the vegetation, mountains, hills, and the floors of the Willamette valley that were her stomping grounds for many years. She was pleasantly surprised to fall in love with the colors found in the Sonoran Desert. Right in her own backyard and neighborhood, everywhere she visits throughout the day, she is greeted with the colors found in her new desert world. . . . . The prickly pear cactus comes in many varieties, each of them interesting to view and study. The shapes and colors vary so. The blooms and fruit are beautiful to watch as they pass through their phases. Gorgeous plants even if they do have some prickly spines that you do not want to touch.
