Arizona III

Arizona III

Another cactus.  I love the desert.
Watercolor and Gouache.
You can see the first two cacti here.

Have a sunny weekend!

I am sharing this with Paint Party Friday.

What a wonderful cactus. I supposed you used some sort of masking for the spines. Whatever you did worked great. Love the color combo.
