I’m working behind the scenes on several pieces for upcoming shows, including a watercolor collage of spurge blossoms which I find fascinating. They bloom in January and February, a yellow green cluster of tiny blossoms and I’ve run across them intermingled with prickly pear pads and I love the feel of English gardens with blossoms all intertwined but here in a desert setting. so here’s one of the clusters from the collage and more photos will appear in coming days… I’ve painted the scene before and my collage comes from several less than succcesful attempts to paint it differently. I’ve blogged about this earlier.
“Spurge Among the Prickly Pear” is on display at the Cottonwood Gallery of the Southwest Environmental Center’s Nature show which runs through the end of August. The gallery is at 275 W Main Street, Las Cruces, and is open M-F 9 am – 6 pm.
“Spurge Among the Prickly Pear” on display at SWEC until August 31.
