Desert Cotton Tail

This desert cottontail hand painted cover continues my Sonoran Desert Series. The watercolor scheme is particularly pleasing to the eye, and I'm very excited about this set as it progresses. In addition to the desert bunny, a Harris Hawk is also shown prominently in the cachet scene as it perches nearby. I am anxious for you to see this one. The Sonoran Desert Cottontail.

Set Introduction

Sonoran Desert Wildlife

Set of 10 - Available at one per month

To achieve a realistic sense of the desert habitat of these animals, I've illustrated several varieties of cactus and other desert plants. In addition to Sonoran vistas I also captured in the hand painted cachets a dazzling sunset (owl), a breaking dawn (mule deer), and a picturesque western sky pastels (tortoise). The stamps in this habitat set of ten are all attractive, and each of the wildlife cachets is very realistic as a result of the hand painting on each and every one of them.

Although the enclosed photos will give you a good idea as to the quality of these cachets, the actual colors are more vivid and lifelike. The copies cannot capture the intricate details and artistic craftmanship of the covers. I'm very anxious for you to see them for youself.
