Sunray Saguaros

14.25x7.25 watercolor on Grumbacher 140 lb cold press paper done end of May, another imaginary contemporary desert landscape featuring tall saguaro cactus. Sunrays are exaggerated as they radiate outwards towards any living thing. I especially enjoy the pink prickly pears. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2026

Red Cactus Pears

11x15 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper done last week using one of my older cactus patch photos that was first done in a sketchbook in 2018. I've done more negative painting in the background of imaginary shapes and colors. COPYRIGHT 2025 Kay Smith
