Desert Landscapes in All Media

Alphabetical list of all desert landscapes by name:

Desert landscapes are my favorite genre!  The original paintings for these scenes are in watercolor, acrylic and oil.  There are several open editions and limited editions shown here, as well as several original paintings.  I have several pages link to this page that are devoted to desert scenery. If you are only interested in seeing certain types of prints, i.e., open editions or limited editions, or want to see only original watercolors or acrylic paintings, you may use these links to follow that path, or use the links on the bars above.

I like to be in the desert at sunrise and sometimes sunset, watching the skies and just feeling the joyful play of the wind and the aura of the desert.  I won't tell you that I'll never tire of painting it, but I will tell you that I've been doing it for many years and haven't done so yet!  Desert landscapes offer an opportunity to paint a couple of different seasons.  We have the winter when little, if anything, is in bloom and the spring, when almost everything is in bloom.  The summers are usually too harsh for much in the way of vegetation to shine, but we often get spectacular sunrises and sunsets.  Usually, the plants, like us, are just trying to survive the heat and stay alive.

I have seen a few summers when we had a lot of rain and most of the plants stayed green and lush. That's always a great time because the painting season is extended.
