Description

I couldn’t wait to paint some cacti after seeing them in Arizona. But again, painting cactus in desert sounds routine. So here I use conceptual contrast as I did before. Snow mountain would be a good contrast to desert dune. The plant has to change too if I want to put them on snowy landscape. Desert is hot, the opposite side is cold. Then how about frozen one? The cacti are still alive. They grow in the ice age climate. Their spikes are white icicles.

For this piece I didn’t put any animal in there as size reference. If this was the ice age situation, there might not be that many animals running around. I would like to keep the image cool and quiet.

By the way, I have to Google the correct plural form of cactus which is “cacti” to be safe.

This piece was painted on Fredrix Blue label ultra smooth stretch canvas in traditional profile 3/4”. It has been varnished and carefully packaged with two same size cardboards, buffering paper, bubble wrapping paper and 4 corner protectors.

Although I have tried my best to match the color of digital profile and the actual product, the color might still vary depending on different monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact.

Note, the painting ships unframed.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
