Cactus Confetti

8.25x5.25 mixed media in junk journal, a book published in 1950. I first put on collaged elements of tissue paper and a ticket stub, stenciled acrylic colors, added ink marks with technical pen nib, wrote words, then added a saguaro cactus shape. Assorted colors for stripes and dots and flowers on top. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith

Blooming Saguaro

6x4 watercolor over an ink line sketch on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper done in the past few days, another cactus painting but without a bird this time. Just showing the pretty white blooms the saguaros have in this desert landscape. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith
