Orange Cactus Pod Bloom

8x8 watercolor using White Nights paints on Lanaquarelle hot press 140 lb done last weekend from some of my cactus ref photos. I enjoyed painting the vivid orange bloom on this set of desert succulent cactus or cacti. In May these will be blooming in west Texas. COPYRIGHT 2022 Kay Smith

Orchid Cactus epiphyllum

12x9 watercolor on Canson 138 lb paper finished yesterday of an orchid cactus bloom with a desert sky background in this imaginary succulent scene.  I am trying out the new Canson for mixed media paper but this work is not mixed with any other media.
