Joshua Tree National Park was one of the most inspirational places I have ever visited. Its beauty is astounding. The Cactus Wren could be heard around the park, so I chose to feature it in the painting. The background was painted from a photograph I took within the park. The bird is sitting on a piece of dead Cholla Cactus.
