The Sicilian garden
This is a magic place for me, raised in Sicily since I was two years old. A place I come back to every year to bask in the sun and enjoy the rugged beauty of this wonderful island. This small garden orchard belongs to my sister in law, Adelaide. Calla Lilies are my favorite flower. Here they thrive majestically raising their white cups among the luscious almost leathery leaves.
This painting is a 16x20" oil on canvas.

Oh Rita!! This one is gorgeous!!!
Thanks Manuela! I know you appreciate Sicily.It must remind you a lot about Spain.
Wow Rita, these are really beautiful! Love the colors and energy!
Thanks Sarah! I love this little garden especially the Calla Lilies. I am so jealous if my sister in law...Those Lilies grow wild in her garden..I tried without success to grow them in Vancouver.
