Ballerina This photograph reminds me of a ballet slipper. A magical ballet slipper sparkling with fairy dust. Surrounded by beautiful color and magical tones of sound and light. Dancing for the spirit of creativity in all of us. Simplicity and beauty are things that we love. It is nice when all that we want can be captured in a photograph. Red is a very powerful color. It could be war, love, fear, evil, peace, sensuality, whatever we interpret it to […]

Gratitude is the sign of noble souls. ~Aesop

Noble Colors I am not sure exactly why this image seems so noble to me. Maybe it is the sense of infinity in the center? Maybe because the colors are so bold and yet understated at the same time. Bright, vivid and alive. I see dimensions of color and light. I see the universe and all of the stars contained therein. As you can see, I have quite the imagination 🙂 This is a photograph of a piece of glass […]

Penguins This photograph reminds me of a penguin. Sitting quietly in the Arctic and wondering what all of the color is about. Black and White is one thing but a bright blue penguin is a new idea. In these bold colors I can almost taste a story waiting to be told. I see a wheat colored yellow and a calming blue, a royal purple, a nectarine orange, a limey green kiss, a sensual red and spiritual purple/pink haze. This picture […]

Peace On Earth Peace in the shape of a gently curving bunch of flowers. Strong and tall in the purest of intentions. White and brilliant as it stands for what it believes in. On the way to the sky and into the heavens. All around us is the scent of the most beautiful day. Wafting its way into our hearts and bringing joy to anyone who inhales. Earth is a level of what we experience and on its way to […]

Beckoning Blue Iris Georgia O’keefe is one of my favorite artists and I really enjoyed this quote of hers. Flowers are so very beautiful to look at and to photograph and to paint. I hope you enjoy the colorful mix of blue and green in this image. I always look forward to Spring when this flower shows up in my garden bringing color and joy to my day. Namaste .

White Beauty I believe that this particular flower is a type of daisy but I am not sure if it really is or now? I do know that I love white flowers with a touch of color to them. They stand out from their surroundings and provide a bright accent to my garden. This photograph was taken in Winthrop Wa, in Washington State. This town is located in the Pacific Northwest near the Okanogan National Forest. I enjoy a variety […]
