My painting, Asterism's Dip© MSE. I painted this during my artist in residency at the Grand Canyon. I couldn't sleep at 2 AM. I went to the window and saw the Big Dipper low along the North Rim. #GrandCanyon #BigDipper #OilPainting #ContemporaryArt #art #Desert #ArtByAWoman #Asterism #Arizona
Good morning. I had a wild Datura suddenly grow in my yard a few years back. From that came my painting, O'Keeffe's Datura© MSE
