Saguaro Cactus
April 24, 2024
Saguaro Cactus and surrounding scrub – January in the Sonoran Desert south of Phoenix AZ – 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper. This and the surrounding Saguaros all had either burn damage from forest fires or bacterial necrosis, a disease rotting them from the ground up. Local groups are rescuing Saguaros by cutting off an arm or the top and replanting them, helping to restore the fragile Sonoran Desert ecosystem.
