Interestingly, the most popular of all my designs was a piece of cactus art I made in 2025 as a way to stave off depression after inauguration day. I had deemed it a 'sort-of-okay' piece of art; not one I thought would be popular, at all. In fact, I almost gave the original painting away for free, but I decided to try selling it. Someone bought it! WOO! Cacti speak to me sometimes, mostly in the dead of Wisconsin winter, but other things speak to me more. Things like cats, flowers, & coffee pots. So, I decided to try a piece using some cafe ware & some cacti. I think it turnt out ight. What do you think? The pink & purple background was looking really chaotic & disjointed at first, but I am pleased with how the piece turnt out. We all have that friend whose morning ritual is sipping coffee & admiring their succulent garden. Oh-- you don't have a friend like that? Dang, you're missing out!
