Cholla Cactus
This Monday it was a bit of a disappointment. There were a few blooming cacti but for the most part less flowers than the week before. I had been anticipating a real color display, but the blooms were about done on the brittle brush and not much took its place. I ended up painting a view with lots of cholla cactus. It was a bit of a challenge to paint them. Parts of this painting were ok, but overall it seemed like I was fighting those stickery characters!I am attaching a photo that shows them as well as my painting.
