Description

Saguaro cacti are magnificent in full profile and beautiful in detail. This saguaro cactus resides inside Saguaro National Park (Tucson, Arizona). I love the distinctive details present in each cactus. The unique lines of defense and cluster of limbs on this saguaro caught my eye.

Vincent Van Gogh is one my favorite artists. The swirls of the wispy clouds in the azure blue Arizona sky and the distinct shadows and lines of the saguaro brought to mind Van Gogh's work. Inspired to create something a bit beyond my regular photography I used a digital paint process to recreate Van Gogh's artistic style. This image looks phenomenal printed as a large, framed canvas print. I'm partial to the VN4 Copper-Bronze frame. For matted and framed prints I recommend Somerset velvet paper or textured watercolor paper, with mat and frame choice to fit your decor. Picture this print over your fireplace or in your den, daydreaming about time spent hiking among these magnificent cacti.

PRINT RECOMMENDATIONS:
Framed Print: I highly recommend the Somerset Velvet paper option. Colors are vibrant--blues, greens, and light purple highlights come alive. Somerset velvet's subtle texture enhances the digital paint look. Choose mat and frame options to fit your decor. A crisp white mat helps accentuate the cool blue & green hues.
Canvas: Glossy canvas option, 5/8" wrap, with the VN4 Frame (Copper-Bronze)
