Hope you had a nice weekend and Happy Cactus Monday.
I fell in love with this plant since I saw the flowers up close (see my recent blog on ice plants seen along the coast). So, here is my little ice plant (Pig face to Australians; yes, I know that it’s a weird name) – my most recent succulent addition to the garden.
My gold mound inspired piece
And here is my doodle based on my sedum gold mound completed in Sharpie and acrylics paint.
Have a fantastic week.

I am a huge fan of ice plant... I saw some along the California coast thiry some years ago...and they have been a fave ever since! Great photos of yours! I also enjoyed your succulent painting very much...great color and flow...cool composition! HCM across the seas! :)
I don't have an ice plant...but maybe you've inspired a new houseplant addition for me!
Gorgeous colors on that plant.
Love your painting also, the colors and form are wonderful. I like how you always give us two for the price of one; photos and sketch!
HCM!

Thanks for your comment on the River Blog! I have not worked on that one in a while, I need to get back to it. Judy
Like some of the other people commenting, I also remember ice plants from California. The color of your ice plant is wonderful! On your painting, I love the dark sharpie details.
Thank you for your comment on my Watery Wednesday post.
I am happy to have found your blog. I love succulents and we grow so many of them here in Arizona. I remember growing up in California, where Ice Plant covers much of the landscape areas along the freeways of Los Angeles.
