Description
This acrylic on canvas painting was a gift for a special lady in our lives. The Arizona desert scene portrays the beautiful red rocks of the region along with red sands and many desert plants and bushes. Cactus are scattered throughout this landscape, including the iconic saguaro and the prickly pear. The Mexican grey wolves in the foreground were resting on a rocky ledge, only to be disturbed by the rattle of a western diamondback rattlesnake hiding right under the ledge below them. The male wolf now has the "Surprise Encounter" as he gazes over the edge at the snake. In the background of the gorgeous sunset scene is a herd of wild horses feeding on desert plants before they bed down for the night. The sky is aglow with the peachy colors of a desert sunset with layers of purple clouds topping off the turquoise slivers of sky.
