Sabino Canyon, Tucson, AZ

This is a painting I did from a photograph of Sabino Canyon, Tucson, AZ vacation. Birding and hiking. Did you know a Saguaro cactus grows one inch in 10 years, three feet in 50 years, and its first arm in 85-100 years. So, the cactus in this painting is very old. Oil on canvas, 8X10.

Harris's Hawk

Harris's Hawk, Zeus is another raptor with Nature's Educators. He used to be a falconer's bird, but now is an education raptor. Oil on 8X10 canvas.

Athena the Great Horned Owl

This is a painting I did this afternoon. Oil on canvas, 8X10, painted from Bill Pelzmann's photo, Rocky Mountain Nature Photographers. Nature's Educators did a photo shoot with the club in January. Athena is Nature's Educators Great Horned Owl. I volunteer with Nature's Educators and was Athena's handler during the photo shoot.
