2011-08-14T07:24:00.000-07:00

I moved back to Florida recently and love living so close to the beach again....
but I am really excited about all the artists in the area. There is always an art show or festival going on some where close to home. Here are some helpful websites
I came across while searching for information :

Very Cool 3D Sidewalk Artist

2011-05-17T13:14:00.000-07:00

When I logged into my yahoo mail account today I saw some vey cool 3D sidewalk art created by German artist, Edgar Muller. I have heard of him before but never really took the time to learn about him. I had some extra time this morning and decided to read up on him at his website. I find his work beautiful and wanted to share what I found on YouTube. This video shows how he created one of his most recent street designs, it really is amazing.

Hope you find his work as interesting as I did!

Molly Muses Fine Art Photography on Etsy

2011-01-29T11:38:00.000-08:00

I have always enjoyed other artists creations, not only does it inspire me to try new things but seeing how other people express themselves through art and music makes me smile. A friend of mine from years ago and I have come back into contact recently and I thought I would share her fine art photography Etsy shop.

Molly and I met in elementary school, grew up in the same florida neighborhood, got our first job at together, graduated from high school together and later met up at the Southeast Center for Photog/Graphic Studies where we each graduated with a degree. It's sad how life takes over, people get married, start families, move out of state and loose contact but I am happy that Facebook brought us back together recenlty and we can pick up where we left off.

Here is what Molly says about her Etsy shop: "My shop is full with photography collections of vintage style prints with old trucks and cars, Americana, bold-color-abstract prints and sepia toned images for an antique mood. I always enjoy nature photography and floral images with a twist".

One of my favorites is this spider web, the color is so brightly detailed and interesting... I just love it.

You can visit her shop and save 10% when using code LOVEANDRIA at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/MollysMuses?page=2#

I hope you enjoy looking at Molly's photography and her cool vintige shop she has put together, I know I have.

It's a new year....and my first post is late.

Okay so yeah, it's a new year, I have had a busy year and alot has changed but I am happy 2010 is coming to an end...time for new beginnings, new hope and new life.

During my search for comfort and inspiration I came across this beautiful writing by Author
Ron Cooper and it's about a butterfly so of course I fell in love:

Dear Butterfly, I dream of becoming you. Flying happily in the sunshine. Skipping from flower to flower. Spreading joy on gentle wings. I hope to emulate you. Restoring spirits. Soothing frayed nerves. Bringing delight to many admirers. Please stop for a brief visit to caress my hand with a fluttering kiss. Then you’re... off on a magical adventure. And I will follow.

Dear Butterfly, I adore you!

If you are not familar with his writing I suggest you check out his blog at http://inspiredbyron.blogspot.com/, his original poems, quotes, stories & essays will lighten your burdens and brighten your day!
