Cactus with Blossoms, Hope Ellen 2017 Oil Painting
Original oil on canvas painting by Hope Ellen, dated 2017. The work portrays a stand of prickly pear cactus (nopal) with bright red fruit set beneath a dramatic desert sky. Executed with expressive brushwork and layered tones of green, red, and blue, the composition captures both the rugged vitality and vibrant color of the Mexican landscape. Signed lower left, “Hope Ellen ’17.”
Presented in a white wood shadowbox frame by Lavinia’s Framing of San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico. While the artist Hope Ellen is verifiably identified by her signature, no wider exhibition or auction records have surfaced, suggesting this piece should be appreciated as a unique decorative artwork in the tradition of San Miguel artists and the Southwestern aesthetic.
Condition
Good overall condition. Canvas and paint surface are stable with strong color. The wood frame shows chips, scuffs, and wear at the top right corner, along the bottom edge, and on the rear, as shown in photos. Hanging wire intact and ready for display.
