March 15th, I Cast a Lonely Shadow

We have to look at the world around us more.  It seems that the more busy and hectic our lives become, we no longer take the time to see simple things, and the beauty in that simplicity.  Take this twig for example, how many of them have you passed by today without taking a second glance?  Yet if you just slow down a bit, you can see all sorts of incredible things.  I know I have.

March 12th, Packing Peanuts

Is beauty truly in the eye of the beholder?  We all have varied tastes and different points of view.  Some of us prefer certain foods, colors, smells, people.  I find it amazing that we have been able to continue the species at all with just how different we really are.

To some people staring into a box of packing peanuts is probably not the most interesting thing, however to me I saw a very simple beauty, what do you think?

March 5th, A Stuffed Ferret

Ok now this one is a bit different I know.  This is a photograph that was taken of a Beanie Baby ferret, however once it got into the computer and into Photoshop things went a bit different. 🙂   What I did was convert a photograph into what appears to be an oil painting, its actually quite a simple technique but it can  make your work go POP.
