Desert Sentries I

Watercolor on canvas - 20” x 60”

The saguaro cactus is a rare species, occurring naturally only in the Sonoran Desert.  These giants tower over the landscape, providing shelter and a lofty perspective for native birds.  Gila Woodpeckers and Owls make their nests inside the spines and Grey Doves, Quail and Cactus wren are often seen perched on the arms.

Desert Sentries I is also available as a limited edition canvas giclee print
