Nice portfolio. While everything in her portfolio is pretty noteworthy, I smiled at these pieces below, photographed for Neon Magazine… looks like they were fun to make! Very much a throwback to Jan Svankmajer’s Dimensions of Dialogue.
So this year we decided to make Christmas presents for our families. My husband and I hand-carved stamps and then decided on three colours to use for our layers, and came up with layouts for each of them. It was a really fun process… we were clearly feeling inspired by Native-American patterns. This is the design we ended up with:
And here’s a glimpse of our process…
Here are a couple of photos from our trip so far more to come.
1. Me decorating some gingerbread cookies 2. Llamas at a farm where we went sledding 3. Vintage pipe and humidor set found at an antique store by my husband $20 for the whole thing! 4. Aero, my in-laws 12 year old dog, after eating some snow (a favourite pastime).
I love this Flickr pool. Just photos of people’s collections- organized and photographed. Some are rather insane, but some are very sweet and serene like these.
These are tiny compared to what the photos look like here. I have been enjoying the photos posted by the Big Picture (one of my favourite journalistic photo blogs) of images taken by the Hubble Telescope. They really are breathtaking, and you should definitely check it out if you haven’t already. There’s one every day until Christmas.
Here are a few photos I’ve managed to take recently…
1. This is a peek of how my garden is looking this month… covered in leaves, but still happy. 2. From a recent trip to the Huntington Gardens 3. A vintage topper for our Christmas tree found at the Goodwill yesterday 4. My cat Milo rolling around on the warm sidewalk
To move or not to move…?
