Desert Glamour - 22x22" - is an ORIGINAL, Signed Floral Watercolor Painting featuring various flowers, painted in an abstract style. Paintings are not framed and are shipped in a very sturdy cardboard sleeve so they will not be damaged in any way. I am happy to accept custom orders if you have a city scene, floral, landscape, or ocean scene you want to have painted. High-quality Giclee Reproductions are available in several different sizes upon request.
I was inspired to paint this following a photo shoot of my neighbors cactus garden. Desert Glamour is part of the Desert Life series of paintings.
Prickly Pear Cactus have been a staple food of Native Americans for many centuries. Their large blossoms grow from the tip of cactus nodules, which later ripen into delicious red fruit. Prickly pear juice can be used to make jams, jellies, desserts, or poured on salads. Studies have shown that the pectin contained in the Prickly Pear pulp lowers levels of cholesterol. And the fibrous pectin in the fruit may lowers diabetics' need for insulin.
