Handcarved and printed "Bonsai" linocut print - First edition I have always found bonsai trees to hold a sense of whimsical beauty to them. Ever since I was little we always had one in our house, and I use to imagine little people living inside them (I had a wild imagination). This print comes in 2 forms; One printed with black ink on white Japanese rice paper (13x25cm) and a 2 tone print with brown and black ink on white printing paper (13.5x19.5). Each print is numbered and signed by me and comes with a certificate of authentification. Please note prints are sold unframed
A bookstore gift card from my dear friend Sharon recently led me to purchasing a beautiful new book, Romantic Style by Selina Lake and Sara Norrman. A longtime fan of the Shabby Chic prescription for home decor, I found this book to be a slightly fresh spin on the faded pastels I'm usually drawn to. Selina and Sara infuse punches of cheery colour into their rooms, in the way of a hot pink dining room wall, lime green throw pillow, or bouquets of bright flowers, yet manage to keep the look soft and vintage. Here's a peek at just some of the delicious pages: In response to the inspiration from this lovely book, I've recently added a bit more colour to my own (normally white and neutral) home and wanted to share some photos with you. I refer to this sofa as my 'man repellant', because I'm pretty sure no guy in his right mind would want to watch football on this. No home would be complete without its very own Marie et Louis! Bon soir! :)

Getting a tattoo that's inspired by nature is a beautiful way to show off your love of the outdoors and adventure. Nature tattoos invoke feelings of peace and tranquility, and there are many variations on them. Animal tattoos, realistic flower tattoos, trees and minimalist landscape tattoos are just some of the ideas you can use for your next ink.
There is a way that you can even direct people who are going through troubled times to use art to make a living. They could always try super smart DIY
No other tattoo designs convey a message as clear as word tattoos. Yeah, you’re right; it’s because the message is literally written on your skin! No cryptic symbols or surreal images for people (and most importantly, yourself) to wonder what your ink means. And although you might think that these are very simple tattoos, just wait until you see the examples we’ve rounded up in our list. They’re often very far from simple and definitely inspiring!

Ohhhhhhh my goodness! This might be my favorite new project! You've probably seen this or a similar Banyan Tree project in Dynamic Art Projects for Children, or maybe another blog. But I'm going to post it anyway because it is just that fabulous! Banyan trees grow primarily in India, though you can find some in Florida as well. From its branches grow aerial roots, which stretch downward and plant themselves back into the ground. They're amazing to look at! source source My fifth graders worked with oil pastels on their Wayne Thiebaud-inspired cakes project and really loved them. I think I significantly facilitated the sale of oil pastels at the local arts and crafts stores with that project. This project upped the oil pastel ante, as kiddos had to use their previous experience with the medium and further their technique in the form of blending colors. To begin, I walked the students through the tree-drawing process. Despite giving each class essentially the same spiel, every tree was very different. I love that about art, don't you? After drawing, kiddos painted their tree trunks and branches with black tempera paint. All that jazz took at least one full 45-minute class; some kiddos had to finish painting at the start of the next class. As far as coloring goes, most of my fifth graders used up two classes' worth of time (90 minutes total) to color. Every section had to include two analogous or like colors blended together. Some students went the random route, while others chose a specific color scheme or order. For the bottoms of the artwork, more colors could be used. Some students 'planted' their tree in water, which allowed for a reflection. I highly recommend using the reflective format, as the results are totally stunning! (The photos do NOT do these projects any justice. The vibrancy of the colors will knock your socks off in person!) This sweet kiddo lacks a lot of fine motor skills... yet this project was her JAM! This one is nicer than my example... it's humbling to be outdone by an 11-year-old! I'll do this project again and again--the kids loved it, they learned a lot, and WOW, are these babies gorgeous! Also, two nights ago I watched "Life of Pi," and there's a Banyan tree in one scene! I'm 28 years old and that alone made me so excited that I accidentally woke up the dog... and my husband. Whoops.

Natura è tutto ciò che noi vediamo: il colle, il pomeriggio, lo scoiattolo, l’eclissi, il calabrone. O meglio, la natura è il paradiso. Natura è tutto ciò che noi udiamo: il passero bobolink, il mare, il tuono, il grillo. O meglio, la natura è armonia. Natura è tutto quello che sappiamo senza avere la capacità …
