A Splash of Colour to Welcome Spring

Hello colourful world.

Dress up

Sometimes I just like to play....

Okay, so maybe a lot.

All in one evening :)

I'm not sure I will ever grow-up.

Paying it Forward College Style

I went to another local college in search of News the other day. I heard they were hosting a Pay it Forward day. It was actually "a day" but it was still very interesting. The Graphic Design department offered a piece of Art via a postcard in exchange for a Random Act of Kindness. You would write your kindness down and stick it in the clothes pin and then take the Art you were replacing.

Pretty cool, eh?

I also saw this interesting wool sign downtown Hamilton.

It's a cafe I think.

Butterflies and Marmosets re-visited with a real camera

Okay this is a horrible photo. It was taken through the glass BUT look how cute the baby marmosets are..... You can see the one's little face right by the dad's head.

Butterflies and Marmosets! <3 Sigh... God knew what He was doing!

A pretty busy week

Last weekend my friends and I went to the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls. Both Candra and I need photos of butterflies for an approaching Photoshop project. I had been when I was a kid a few times, but it was sooooo much better than I remembered. There were butterflies EVERYWHERE. At the risk of sounding cheesy, it was pretty magical.

I look pregnant here, I'm so not. I just have terrible posture haha.

It was hilarious though, because this ten year old boy was sobbing. I mean, he had tears streaming down his face and he ducked away from any approaching butterflies (which was a lot so it was nearly impossible). I shouldn't laugh at this fear... but in all honesty, it's a haha, that's cute laugh, not a "wow stupid kid" laugh.

I think Mila needs some butterfly wings. Although I will never be able to catch her then!

Shooting pop cans in studio. This isn't my set. I can't wait to show you my set!

We went thrifting. I didn't buy anything, but this dress called to me.

And pretty bulk sprinkles!

Today is St. Patrick's Day! I love a day when you get to celebrating your Irish roots and dress all in green!

Any plans anyone?

Happy weekend!

(Oh, and you know what makes me happy today? I'm getting caught up on life! Hoozah!)

I once had an Art journal

My Art journal has been sadly neglected and I miss it. I also find I'm more agitated when I don't give myself time to do some little doodles or some crafting. So here's the catch-up!

 

 

And that's it for now. I suppose I should have posted what the prompts were... haha... oh well.

Flower hat

The other night I had studio time booked, and didn't line up a model and didn't feel like shooting still life... so I made a hat and photographed myself.

I'm eventually going to re-shoot the look with a model, but for now, here is my hat.
