This is a new platform and nobody knows exactly how it will go, but we can all agree trade and commerce is going to look very different in the future. Thanks to SteemPay I can now offer merchant services; and I will start to put a buy it now price with each painting.

Like any new idea it takes several times of exposure before it really sinks in for people, which is fine in this case because the transparent book keeping Graphene ledger allows us to do this in an additive fashion. For the time being we will subtract any SBD payout from your total purchase price; so for example you buy the painting for 2k SBD and the post brings in 1k SBD then I will return to you 1K SBD when received after the 12 hour payout.

For a short time while we test out the new “BUY IT NOW” feature we are only going to list one painting a day.

Today's Painting:

DESERT PARADE

This is a rather large painting. The vibrant cactus scene is one of many blossoming cactus variations I've been inspired to paint. The Spring cactus blossoms, throughout the high deserts, are simply stunning when set against the red rock formations.

Product Description

Dimensions: Image Size: 40″+30″

Framed: 45″+37″

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Description: Southern Utah, especially within the Zion Nat. Park area, the explosion of cactus blossoms abound in the Spring. The color parade with desert sunlight heighten the senses and warms the heart. I knew it would be impossible to exaggerate the actual vibrancy with my painting.
