description: This painting represents the first in a series of works inspired by the Sonoran Desert upon my recent move After a lifetime spent mostly in the San Francisco Area, I was astounded to find how deeply I feel the beauty of the desert. I have always been surrounded by water and spent many years on the water, sailing with my husband -- now this new “landlubber” is finding inspiration in the majesty of the desert. This painting will be shipped unframed, wired for hanging. The painting is on stretched canvas (2 ½ inch thick stretcher bars).
