Saguaro Against a Purple Sky My Largest Canvas to Date

“Saguaro Against a Purple Sky” is the largest canvas I’ve painted to date! I admit that the size intimidated me at first, but after a little while, things flowed.

The painting is inspired by a beautiful photo taken by David Dubé of Surprise, Arizona. Check out his Instagram @soapboxinthesky.

Although I took a realistic approach, I experimented with a stylized version. For example, I painted the cactus teal rather than the dark green of the original photo. I also made the mountain range less detailed. 

I feel gratified with the result and hope you like it, too!
