Joshua Tree

My rendition of a Joshua Tree, acrylic & pastel on canvas

My husband and I just returned from a short vacation in Joshua Tree CA.

If you are not familiar, Joshua Tree National Park is located in Southern California. It is a desert, dry and hot, usually. The weekend we were there it was actually rather cool and very windy.

An actual Joshua Tree, much larger than it appears!
There are lots of art galleries and installations all around
World famous Crochet Museum
Amazing sunrise and sunsets!
So many beautiful desert flowers!
The rocks are actually really easy to climb

    I don’t know how easy those rocks would be for me, Tiffany, lol, but your pastel/acrylic and yellow desert flower images are gorgeous! 🙂

      Thank you Felipe! It’s really easy to climb up, but admittedly, coming down is a little trickier!

        Ahhhahaha, I bet! Only challenging hike I’ve done last few years was in Costa Rica — more soil and roots than rocks 🙂 — and coming down was the biggy! I ended up using a stick from the side of the path to keep from literally sliding all the way down, lol!

    Your painting is so alive. It’s a beautiful piece. I know you usually make musical references and your Joshua Tree has me humming U2 songs.

    Oh yes! We of course listened to the entire album on the way there, AND on the way back! Thank you so much, the desert is very inspiring!
