Opuntia, watercolor, 8×6″, 2018, copyrighted with all rights reserved by Jean Krueger
Dozens of varieties of Opuntia are in bloom in these early May days in Arizona. I found this blossom at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix. I’m inspired in this painting by the semi-transparent petals and the contrast of vermilion against aquas, greens and purples.
