Tall Mini Cactus

5x3 watercolor over pencil sketch done yesterday on 140 lb Grumbacher cold press paper using Daniel Smith paints. In this miniature cactus or succulent still life in a clay pot I have added white gel pen for its tiny prickly thorns. The paper had paint marks on it from other projects. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith

These last three, shells, jade plant and cactus are fun. I like that you use so many different media and techniques. Amazing.
