Description
This painting of a blooming prickly pear cactus, with a desert coral orange background which resembles the colors found in the Arizona sunset skies, was inspired by the Sonoran Deserts of Arizona; in specific, Mesa Arizona. . . . .When the artist moved from her home state of Oregon in 2008, she expected to miss the wonderful colors found in the flowers, shrubbery, and trees that are in abundance with the many nurseries in the area. 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 so 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 plant even if they do have some prickly spines that you don�t want to touch.
