Hi Shane
Happy to see you.

Hi Christal good to see you again.
Thank you for your kind words on mine.

I have searched and they are the same origin from South Africa.
Your calla is beautifully done with beautiful pink.

Dewi lovely work on your Lily

Christel one of my favorite colors of this Lily.

1. Dewi, thanks for hosting and for the beautiful photos. I love your graceful calla just opening. It reminds me of Georgia O’Keeffe’s style.

So nice to see your work again Christel, you never disappoint. Beautiful painting of this pink calla.

I couldn’t resist this reference with all those beautiful shapes and shadows. Gouache on Stonehenge black paper 9×12”.

Sanlynn that a very beautiful piece and the dark Paper gives a very impresive image

I used my own photo ref of a white calla.  It is 6×6 watercolor on Masters Touch 80 lb. sketchbook. BBL to comment on others

Dewi, love your yellow calla. Beautiful, soft colors and shading.

Christel, good work on the pink calla. I like what you did with the background that really makes the flower pop.

Sanlynn, love your callas on the black background. I also like how the back leaf just fades into the background.

Imelda, nice work. I like your interesting background and the interesting leaves.

Kay, very nice. I love your background. They are always interesting without being distracting.

I managed to get two done. I love the graceful shapes of calla lilies and I couldn’t resist. Each is about 5″x7″ ink and watercolor in an XL Mix Media sketchbook.

Anne
C & C always welcome.

Imelda, love your calla bud just ready to open.

Kay, great contrast in your lovely painting.

Anne, these are both gorgeous!! Love how you’ve blended the soft colours in the pedals and leaves, perfect with the white background.

Thank you for your kind comment on my Calla; Imelda, Sanlynn, Anne, Shane and Joy.

Lovely work you on your calla Imelda.

Love your beautiful background too Kay.

Oh I love your bunch of beautiful calla and colours too Sanlynn.

Anne, so delicate and beautiful callas you have made especially the lilac so fragile looking.

Shane, what a lovely and interesting work on your calla and I like the left bg too.

Hope I didn’t missed commenting on your work.

Late commenting, sorry

Dewi, love your white call with white bg   very good!

Sanlynn, using gouache on black paper turned out so well

Imelda, your tall white calla is so graceful

Christel, such pretty pinks

Anne, elegant light lavender shades in both of these and I admire your line work in the second

Shane, your looks more purplish on my monitor and it is great   All the greens support the callas and yellow accent flowers are a nice touch!
