Item Details

A large original, signed acrylic on canvas by artist Downe Burns (20th/21st century). The image depicts a large turquoise Saguaro cactus to the foreground with adobe homes to the background. The painting is signed to the lower right-hand corner. Mounted in a white frame with attached hooks to the top for hanging. Burns is largely a self-taught artist, briefly studying Art History at Texas Tech University before leaving to paint on a regular basis. In 1987, he moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico were he was inspired by his surroundings of saguaro cacti, portraying them with his own composition and use of brilliant color. By the age of twenty-four, his paintings were chosen for numerous private and museum collections. He has created images for numerous companies and events including Kahlua, Wines of America, Fox Television Network, Kodak International Balloon Fiesta and more. In 1995, he returned home to Lubbock, Texas and continues to paint to this day.
