The Day the Desert Sang

24 x 24 $1,000 2026

A surge of life transforms the desert in this painting of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, where recent abundant rains awaken a fleeting spectacle. Bands of vivid wildflowers climb the mountainside in luminous layers, resembling woven carpets of color draped across the land. Each hue pulses with intensity against the arid terrain, capturing the rare moment when the desert reveals its hidden abundance. The scene speaks to cycles of patience and renewal—an ephemeral bloom that returns only when conditions align, then vanishes as quickly as it appeared.
