Thrive celebrates resilience and contrast — desert cactus meeting the soft California coast in a fresh and unexpected pairing. From Drica Lobo’s Painting Challenge 2025.
 
 
STUDIO NOTES: Today I decided to paint a cactus, because it was definitely missing from this collection. I kept scrolling through my camera roll for inspiration and found this beauty from a few years back… and instantly knew it needed to become a mini.
 
There’s something so unexpected and fun about bringing desert energy into my coastal world. Cactus and beach… are we agreeing they’re secretly made for each other? Because I’m starting to think so. Let me know if you feel this match too, I’m obsessed with how it turned out.
