Desert Garden Home



18 x 24 inches Oil on canvas



Today at the Desert Botanical Garden plein air event. Started at 9am with the lovely morning shadows and light coming over the building hitting the bushes. The Cardon Cacti on left were planted in 1940, and I'll post final version tomorrow. That's a Boojum tree straight ahead, an elephant tree on right and the bush on right is a... oops drawing a blank. Butterflies and hummingbirds love the red blossoms. It's nearly gone by.
