Paintings of Desert Super Bloom

A super bloom is a rare botanical phenomenon occurring when an unusually large number of dormant seeds all bloom in the desert at once. This only occurs about once every ten years or so. The Anza-Borrego Park in California had magnificent blooms in 2017 and 2019 of brittlebush (yellow flowers), desert lily (white), popcorn flowers (white and yellow), lupine (purple), bluebells (deep purple), California poppies (bright orange), and others, resulting in an explosion of color and making history. Hanson is always seeking unusual or powerful color combinations in nature, so of course, she was drawn to paint the super bloom in person.
