I really love the cactus in the blank background in this. I think you’re onto something.

  I know it is popular to leave a white background with watercolors. So hard for me to do. I want color, even if it is subtle.
  IT does pop though, doesn’t it Sea 🙂

The succulence is palpable, Sheila! Love the direct bold simplicity of this painting, its graphic quality, its quiet depth.
