Texas artist Robert Harrison (b. 1949) is considered by many to be the best living landscape painter in Texas. This painting makes a perfect example of him at his best - a landscape that stretches for miles into the horizon, cactus, wildflowers, bluebonnets and trees under a cloud streaked sky, a riot of spring colors.
This painting is currently hanging in our gallery and available for purchase. Contact us with any inquiries.
Robert Harrison - Untitled Texas Landscape with Wildflowers and Cactus
20" x 16", oil on canvas.

Cacti are some of our most beloved plants. They grow as small little buttons, like those of the Junior Tom Thumb Cactus, up to massive sizes like the 12 - 15 foot tall Texas Plains Prickly Pear. They're food for people, for wildlife, and add so much beauty to our spaces.
Learn more about cacti in the RGV with Ken King, co-author of the fantastic field guide "Plants of Deep South Texas", as our guest presenter this Thursday at 6 PM. If you're interested in cacti, this is not one to miss!
Drumroll, please… Meet our 2025 South Texas Book Festival featured authors!
Presented by heb, STBF takes place at Main Library on Saturday, October 25, from 11AM–5PM. This free, all-ages celebration will feature authors, book signings, hands-on activities, food vendors, community partners, and even a kiddie train.
Books will be available for purchase through our exclusive bookseller, The Storybook Garden.

Cacti are some of our most beloved plants. They grow as small little buttons, like those of the Junior Tom Thumb Cactus, up to massive sizes like the 12 - 15 foot tall Texas Plains Prickly Pear. They're food for people, for wildlife, and add so much beauty to our spaces. Learn more about cacti in the RGV with Ken King, co-author of the fantastic field guide "Plants of Deep South Texas", as our guest presenter this Thursday at 6 PM.
