Description
28 years ago I did and sold a lot of night scenes of the Arizona Sonoran Desert. This recent painting features Picacho Peak, a full moon, and Arizona's State Flower, the Saguaro Cactus Blooms. Since boyhood I have loved full moons, especially in the quiet solitude of the desert and mountains. Picacho Peak State Park draws folks from all over the planet to photograph its spring wildflowers and poppies.

You are a master, Jerry. I like how you have "lit up" just the flowers on the cactus with the moonlight. It works beautifully. like/f
Jerry Bokowski replied:
Simple little scenes like this are a nice break from large complex Grand Canyon works. Thank you very much, Anne, for taking time to find this and then sharing your impressions of it with me!

The solitude of the mountains comes through beautifully in this painting. And though the full moon is radiant in itself the light it spreads is soft and muted. Like the speck-like stars in the sky and their earthly counterparts in the cactus blooms. A meditative work that calls for quiet reflection. Beautiful!
Jerry Bokowski replied:
I love full moons, Renu. You saw that by writing your words to me. Thank you so much. I am glad it made you feel that way!

What a gorgeous and unique piece Jerry. A rarity to see over MARVELoUs Sonoran Desert, during a full moon no less. It's perfect with the blooming saguaro cactus, as that is when they blossom. Picacho Peak looking so dramatic and beautiful. It is hard to believe this is one of your small works. Great for showing your walls some love in those small spaces. Promoting you in Beauty Of Arizona, "Famous Rock Formations and Mountains of Arizona!" Fantastic art! LF FB

There's something magical about a night desert sky. This makes me feel like I'm there in person! L/F

The beautiful blossoms on the saguaro look like stars in their own right. This is a lovely work of art! Featured in American Desert Southwest.
