CACTUS FLOWER by artist Tammy Wampler
$ 240.00
$ 300.00
Acrylic on cradled wood, 8” x 8”
Via the artist: I was inspired by quite a few Native American tales on the origin of the cactus that included the flower once being a beautiful maiden. One such tale included a forbidden love between a young maiden and her lover. They ran away together and became the cactus, the young man the body of the cactus that protects the maiden while she became the flower. I loved the imagery and the beauty of that tale in particular.
