Here are a couple of photographs I've done recently.  I'm becoming fond of half images, taken on the first or last exposures on a roll of film like in the cup of tea.  It's esthetically pleasing to me and both a bit iconic and humorous. 

   

Road Trip

I love riding in cars and adore road trips ...up until about the fifth straight hour in the car.  Then I get a bit restless and sore.  My husband and I recently drove 5 1/2 hrs to visit his parents.  I had some expired film that I'd been waiting to experiment with.  Here are some of the results! 

'A Look Through The Forest' has been featured in Surreal Arts Weekly!

Isn't this cool?!  I'm so excited!!!  It will be up on the website for a week.  I'm not sure if there is a print version.  Here's a link to their site.  

Here's the image and a link to it in my etsy shop: 

A Look Through The Forest

My most beloved art form is experimental video.  Currently unable to edit due to a lack of a working camcorder, I wanted to bring that talent into my photography.  Here's a print called 'A Look Through The Forest.'  It's surreal, sort of creepy, dreamy and implies that there's more going on than the viewer is knowledgeable of.  I like that.  Let's create together, write your own story!   Let me know what you think! 

Snuggle Bunny

I'm doing a series entitled 'Silly Wabbit,' the first of which is 'Snuggle Bunny.'  It's up on my etsy site.  

I'm hoping that my allergies calm down enough for me to go out and take some new photos of flowers!  The past few days have seen an abundance of new blooms....and that means an abundance of pollen.  Argh.  Got some new bits for my dremel tool, and so I am planning on playing with that.  I have a box of bass wood that I want to play with - I'm thinking dolls, but who knows exactly what will be created!  During my time indoors, I might also try and finish up some of the other projects previously featured on this blog.  Oddly, my photographs get a lot more hits on Etsy than anything else, which is why I've been focusing on them.  That, and photography doesn't make a mess of our one bedroom apartment.  Sometimes it's just nice to have a clean place, you know? 

The Winter Berry Lanterns 8x10 Photograph

Here's another photograph that I took of the Winter Berry/Chinese Lantern plant.  I can't get over how gorgeous this plant is!!  The colors of the husk are amazing.  I really like how saturated everything is in this photo. 

New Photograph is in the store!!!

I just added an 8x10 matte print of my photograph 'Curling Thoughts' to my etsy store.  CLICK HERE for a direct link! 

I used a Pentax K10D for this shot and printed it on Fujicolor Crystal Archive paper that will last forever.
