Recently my art class and I drew cactus together. We were learning about layering color to create a glow and make it more 3D. At the bottom I put the instructions, so you can make your own. Here are the results.

I hope you have fun drawing it. It isn’t to hard. Let me know in the comments below if you enjoyed it, and are interested in more art tutorials.
I am an art enthusiast who loves many forms of art such as watercolor, drawing, writing, and much more. Here on my blog, I try to show a snippet of my hobbies and artistic endeavors. My life vision is to turn everything into an artistic version of itself, living a life that allows me to be the person God made me to be, and do my best work.
