A cactus flower represent warmth and protection and is symbolic of maternal love as well as the ability to survive and prosper in a harsh and unforgiving environment.
The hedgehog cactus is a species native to the Sonoran Desert region as well as a personal favorite. I painted my first "Hedgehog" in 2009 and have made several variations of this numbered series. "Hedgehog" is an ongoing theme that I like to occasionally revisit in my studio. Each painting in this series varies by composition, palette and size.
