Accept work is my Fabulous Yellow Gerbera Daisy

There is a distinction between being pretty and being beautiful. While someone who is pretty has an attractive appearance, someone who is truly beautiful radiates from within. – Rishikajain 

Spiritually, the color yellow represents joy, illumination, and wisdom. It is often associated with divine presence and enlightenment. Additionally, yellow is considered an energizing color that can inspire creativity and new ideas. This is exemplified by the vibrant yellow Gerbera daisy depicted in the photo—truly a striking work of art.

Accepted Work- Front Row Seat

The time is closing quickly at my time here on Duck Lake.  I enjoy every precious moment that I’ve been gifted with this beautiful view that offers peace and quiet bringing inner calm to anyone who needs it.  Life perspectives are ever changing, and I now notice more of the little pleasures’ life has to offer and give thanks.  The next chapter of life will be even more beautiful, filled with love and light as I’ve been given a sneak preview of what is to come.  My wish is for the next family to appreciate what they have here and have just as many happy memories as my family and I did.

Accepted works: Forest of Birch and Wolf n Bear

Forest of Birch

“In Celtic Mythology the silver birch tree is sacred and symbolizes new beginnings and protection.”  This quote speaks to me and helping me understand why I love Birch trees and my Irish Heritage.  This image was taken at Jay Cooke State Park in February 2012 just a few months before this region received an unprecedented amount of rain in a 24-hour period; forever changing the landscape of this park.

Wolf n Bear

Some people come into our lives and quickly go, some stay for a while, leaving footprints on our hearts and we are never the same- by Flavia Weedn.  This image reminds me of the ones that left their footprints on my soul.

I am introducing my dragonfly ornaments made from wire and various stones that help with, negative energy, prosperity, grounding, and protection!

Evolution of Fallen Birch

Published

I’m sharing two works of the same photograph; one completed earlier in my art career and the other is my latest creation.  I love to look back and see how I’ve grown as an artist.  Here you see Fallen Birch in formal (matted and glassed) and commando (metal print matless) photozaics. 

This is one of my last images I was able to photograph with my dad and it holds a special place in my heart I think of him and the day we spent on their lake taking in nature’s beauty.

CheeBah is admiring and finds Fallen Birch Tasty!!

Pine Edged road matte less

Sometimes the path in life is not clearly defined.  The only thing you can do is breathe deeply, put your faith in the universe, and take the first step.  Life’s road will have curves, enjoy them as they will bring you to wonderful places if you surrender.  Road trips allow my mind to wander and absorb what Mother Nature shows me.  I especially love watching the landscape change from mountains to desert; from city to Rolling country farms; brightly colored flowers to drab gray foggy scenes.  All of these are gifts from her, so give thanks.  Get out in nature and recharge your soul!

SMALL FORMAL PHOTOZAIC AND COMMANDO SOLD OVER THE WEEKEND. But don’t worry I reordered the commando print and will be making another one and holding off on the formal photoziacs until I receive a direct request.  Over the weekend it was unanimous, the crowd loved the commando line, and I can’t get these done quickly enough. Love problems like this one… stay tuned for new works.

Eruption er16x14x12022-1

My image: Eruption

Photozaic 16x14x1

Let the Fire in the skylight the fire in your soul, let the beauty all around you inspire you! by Danett Britt- This image has been mistaken, by locals, for a Wildfire that took place in Forest Lake, MN.  But instead, is a simple storm cloud developing overhead giving the impression of a Volcanic Eruption.
