Desert Cactus and Country Scene.

Desert Cactus are the large ones. the cactus with the yellow flower is called Opuntia - Anne is the expert not me.

I have done these on 8 inch square canvas, so little chance forshade, so small the picture could have looked dirty. The cactus picture was different with the darker colours.

Thank you Snowdrops_17 - Painting helps - I like painting sheep and in particular lambs - I think I need larger canvas, I seemed to have got used to the 8" one. Cactus I should know lol, our houshold has hundreds, in greenhouse that is 😀🐑

What a sweet lamb. i always wanted an opuntia, but never got round to acquiring one. I have half a dozen cacti on the landing windowsill + 2 refugees from bring and buys which have to make do with my bedroom windowsill. (Better than the rubbish bin.) My oldest cactus is 70 years old, considerably older than my daughter. xxxx

That's smaller than my children's book covers.

Love the hues you've used on the desert cactus painting.

Hi Ern🙋‍♀️, thank you for sharing these lovely paintings. I love the sheep 😊. Sharing these when you're feeling so poorly just shows your inner strength. Hope someone can help you with your oxygen question. 😊❤️❤️xxx

Thank you Nula 2 -I am at doctors tomorrow, with my current medication I would not be allowed oxygen, I am hoping for some other treatment, rather than changing meds.xx
