Boquillas Yucca

Boquillas Yucca, Established Pastel Artist
Boquillas Yucca
Boquillas Yucca is painted on white Gatorboard pumiced with untinted Golden Fine Pumice Gel. The board was lightly toned with sepia liquid acrylic. The painting is of a yucca in bloom in Boquillas Canyon at Big Bend National Park. I find the yucca flower with its delicate maroon and pink apex and creamy white to yellowish flowers at the base to be a beautiful juxtaposition with the green pointed leaves. I added the turquoise leaves for "pop".
