Still Painting Cacti


We're enjoying the last few days of our time in Palm Springs, but preparing mentally for the return to our home in Vancouver.  This means lovely swims and sitting in the sunshine reading books.  We've also been looking at real estate.  Are we ready?

So, I've been doing less art, but as this grid background of watercolour was already done (in Maui last year LOL), I thought "Why not add a cactus?"  With gouache I am able to paint successfully over a background, like one would with acrylic.  I'm enjoying this new medium immensely.
