5x7 Hedge Hog Cactus oil on linen

One more still life. This was a hedgehog cactus blossom in my yard when I was living in Arizona. I loved the color and I did paint a lot of cactus florals back then. Most were larger than this, but this was meant as a present for a good friend who passed away before I could give it to him. He was the founder of the Scottsdale Artist School
