cactus set in dramatic light with cast shadow. I was inspired by adapting the shadows and highlight areas that were prominent on an otherwise normal looking cactus. This gave me the vision to see the cactus in a more geometric cubist view which I then painted. The painting harmony is further exemplified in the light and shadow cast upon the backdrop. This leads you through the painting to find exciting details and twists of color that make the piece interesting as well as calming overall. Thank you.
This original oil painting is 22"x30" unframed.
