More....Spring Blossoms




Spring is God's very own colorful masterpiece.



Nature brought my two most favorite colors together and a I had to capture them and cherish them as God intended.

The pink cherry blossoms and the blue sky!




Yes, These would probably be my favorite ever artistic photos yet. 

Bottom print is available in my etsy shop. I hope you like it too.


Enjoy the gift of Spring everyone! XO

Blossoms

I love all the beautiful colors of trees and their blossoms in the spring. So yesterday after lunch I thought to take the little ones out for a walk in the neighborhood and snap a few pictures.

New: Artistic Photography shop and a Giveaway!!

Been enjoying photography for over a year now and the collection of images keeps growing and growing. This week I decided to submit a portfolio of my work to a company that sells images to major advertising graphic designers. What I hoped most of all was to get the unbiased and professional opinion. The company reviewed my portfolio and emailed me a day later saying that they would love to work with me.

It is exciting for sure, I enjoy photography and styling and its a diversion from the rest of what I do. I may focus on it more right now since I have my art studio all packed up and the only way I can get creative right now is through photography.

I had also been pondering with the idea that I should open a store and sell some of my past shots. After a lot of thinking and hmmmm, some procrastinating perhaps, I finished setting up my new etsy shop with my photography.

So here are the prints I have currently available. I will be adding more for sure so make sure to add the shop to your faves and stay tuned.




My latest shot would be "The Writer"...

Beach houses


I know, it's not even Spring right? But look where my day dreaming is taking me already... I love Summer!

Its my favorite season for so many reasons. I love the ocean and I do not mind the heat.

Spotted these little houses last spring from my hotel room in VA Beach and while there last week I  went looking  for them to snap some fun pictures. Something I love about the beaches in US. Houses and buildings are painted in such fun pastel colors. 









Being brought up on an island, I miss the ocean so much. I am used to the raggedy and worn flip flops and worn, weathered painted fisherman boats tied at the wharf.





And walking down the boardwalks during beautiful sunsets!!



The island in the Mediterranean is different. Beautiful in different ways. I hope to be able to share that beauty with you sometime soon.
