I did the top image first, and was not happy with it as I thought it was "FLAWED", so then proceeded to do the one below. Now I actually think the first one was best!? I did these after re potting my cactus. I bought this wee one, because it was flowering. I was going to be a little lazy this Monday, and take a photo of the blooms when fully open (which seems to be in the late afternoon). I realized that my husband took the camera with him to Kashmir. I went to go buy a new one all to myself, and ended up buying lots of toys for my baby, and deciding that I can survive without a camera for a month. (i wonder if I can or not????)

Happy Cactus Monday!

I want to call these sweet cacti, maybe they are small and snuggly. You did such a wonderful job on these.
Hope the time goes fast for your husband return.

i like the second one better because it feels more spontaneous, hence it has more energy.^_^
oh thanks for the feedback! I am glad now I put the second one up...
Oh, I love them BOTH! I like the soft colors and bright green on the first one, but the second has so much yummy contrast. Your cactus looks very happy in its new, beautiful home.
Ug -- going out for one thing and ending up buying stuff for the kids? I know that one. :)
Yeah, same here I love both of them! You cactus illustrations are very beautiful with the chosen soft colours, I love how the soft pink colours have brought cheers to the whole piece.
AND you are very considerate putting the beautiful purple shadow in.
Indeed, it's a great feeling observing your sweet, gentlr piece:)
so glad you joined cm fellow cactuteer. wonderful art.
I like them both but the top is my fave out of the two.
Great job!!
A month of snowboarding? Wow, I'll kill for 2 days off in the same month!
I think I like the second one more it seems to have more character in this perspective. What is the IF Flawed that I keep running across everywhere?
BTW - baby winning over you - nothing new, that kind of thing is a lifetime curse .. lol
Well HELLO!!! So happy to see you! Thanks for visiting my blog! I adore your pictures here! So happy to meet a fellow cactus lover! Happy late cactus monday (on late Tuesday night here in south Florida)!

Happy Cactus Monday on Animal Wednesday. I like this drawing. I am glad you didn't have a camera this is much better.
They are both lovely but I'm leaning towards the first one as my favourite. When I go out to buy clothes, I usually end up buying art suppies or books instead so I can identify with your camera vs. baby toys thing. :)
