Fun, Fun, Fun......


I love photographing my friends' accomplishments.

I get such a thrill from knowing that I am helping them to see how talented they really are...

Sometimes it takes a photo to bring it all into reality.

These are the back steps of a house that my friend Wyndy designed.

Yes, she designed the entire house.

She works for a builder, and the house is located in a beautiful new neighborhood that places preservation of the habitat as a priority. How cool is that?

She is so talented and yet, she is the last to see it.

Hopefully, these photos, and others will help her see her gift more clearly.

I LOVE THIS!!

The Flower Market.....

is simply gorgeous....
David and I went to the Farmer's market on Saturday. The flowers stalls were filled to the brim with wonderful arrangements.
It was so difficult to decide which bunch fit the bill for me.
So, this is my final decision.......
I think.
I just love the vivid reds, purples, and whites, with bursts of orange-Yellow poppies....
How absolutely luxurious to have fresh flowers on the table when you come down for morning coffee....
How could there be any question as to the existence of a intelligent force in the universe?
Who but an artist could have thought up all of these wondrous colours and designs?
Who wouldn't be inspired by these?
Love this.....

What is it about photos....

And jewelry.......
I just love them both.
The way Heather twists and curls gold to form perfect little circles of gold chain, the beauty of the natural products she uses.....
All of it is so enticing.
I love the process of finding new ways to photograph her creations.
She is so talented that I can hardly keep up with the intriguing designs.
I still love it all.

This weekend,
I planted flowers with a friend.
We had white, red, purple, yellow and pink flowers to assemble, and the whole time, I felt as though I was painting with the various flowers and greenery.

Ah...
The creative process..... it becomes easier when I get away from the projects that have deadlines,
maybe that's why they are called deadlines, they kill the creative process.....

Just a thought.
