Happy Cactus Monday. I hope you enjoy my RED photos today.
My kalanchoe blossfeldiana bloom
I am guessing that this is ice plant. It forms a gorgeous red groundcover along the beach
Cotyledon orbiculata red blooms from the neighbourhood. I love them – fantastic blooms and grey leaves.
… and red art pieces
A couple of pieces completed at the end of last year…
Have a great week.

I just love this shade of red kalanchoe flowers. Mine are dark red. The flowers are very so tiny and they are very difficult to get a clear picture using my point and shoot camera. Even using super macro, I still can't get a clear picture. What camera are you using?
By the way, I love all the sketches here. They are great!
Autumn Belle: Thanks :). Mine is Nikon Coolpix P90. It's got 24x zoom which really helps.
hey Ev, great to be bac...misd u too...lots of hugs to make it up:)
These are really gorgeous red flowers...sorry, I can't help u ther with the name:(
Your sketches are superb! The texture looks really great. What do you use?
Happy Week to you too:)
Deepa:
Thanks. Watercolour and pen - the texture is mainly from the paper, I think. Top one is acrylics paper and bottom one watercolour paper.
See you around!
what beauties, i am moaning cos 'senta' does nothing, just stands and look at me, tall and proud,guess she misses the hot desert sun. sigh....hcm fellow cactuteer.
Lovely succulents-red flowers are my favorite.
Nice papers for texture...
I just love the girl meditating:)
Your bloom looks like an echeveria bloom (without actually seeing the plant). They are so sweet!
Love that red ice plant...amazing they grow at the beach!!! I had never seen one till visiting California...they are everywhere there...just lovely!
Your paintings are so modern and fresh! I also love how you do them with the lines and color!
You go girl!!!!!

Oh my, these are so beautiful! Red is such a great color to play with.
Love your ladies also. The top one must be in Hawai'i with her hair flower.
HCM!!
We have the same camera ;)
That's definately ice plant. I lived in Monterey for 16 years and it's everywhere. Sadly, the town sprays it to kill it because it's not a native plant. The deer depend on it as a water source but despite our protests they spray away:(
The funny thing is all the nurserys sell it and residents plant their own...so it spreads anyway!! ha ha!
Nice sketches too :)
I love the way you combine photos and artwork in your poast...A beautiful theme...love those flowers! :) HCM! :)
Really pretty succulents and I like the hair dos in the art pieces.
Wonderful pictures! and fun art!
HCM!
