Wednesday:  Share Random Photos

If I could have enough time to do all the editing I need to do .. that would be great.  Especially where family get togethers are concerned.  Last summer two of my sisters, my soon to be brother in law and several friends decided to do the Color Run in Milwaukee WI.  I had never heard of this event until then.  I did some research and thought it looked like a blast.  It was.

Throughout the course they have various color stations where the runners/walkers are hit with a bit of color.  We were positioned at the blue station.  At some points all you could see was blue “smoke” and then one person would burst through.  And each and every person had a smile on their face.  It was crazy.  It almost made me want to do it but that feeling passed very quickly.  Ha!

If you’re into running/walking and color – then do the next Color Run!  Here’s a link for more info.  They run all over the country so I’m sure there will be one where ever you are located.

Tuesday:  Share Art Photographs or Business Portraits

On this Tuesday I will be sharing a couple of my art pieces.  One is a few years old and one was is a newborn.  However, both started out as photographs or in the case of the Cog – three.  They were hiding but through many layers, filters, brushes and more – they surfaced.  

I have my first official art installation going up in Madison next month.  I’m kind of nervous but trying to enjoy this step in my career.  If you want to see more of my artwork please click on the tab above.

Photographer in Madison WI – Art

I have a friend who (among other many titles and designations) is a counselor in a Wellness Center at a college.  She has posted many interesting articles on the subject on various social media sites.   Often times the subject matter makes me pause and think about how well  I’m really living.  Today she shared an article on the subject of “where do you go to relax?”  Some suggestions were yoga class, a hike in the woods – a dark room to meditate.  All being great places but none that I could say I practiced.  So I’ve spent a few moments throughout the day trying to think where I go or what I do to relax.  Honestly, I was stumped.  I enjoy many activities but I couldn’t honestly say I did anything for the purpose of relaxation.

 

Tonight I decided to work a bit on what I call  my art.  I sometimes have images randomly appear in my brain that just swirl about until I’m ready to let them come out.  *Side note to self – I may need to chat with my friend about these visions ….  Anyway, as I was working I began to feel a bit calmer and somewhat detached from my surroundings.  I wasn’t thinking about work or home or the tension knot in my neck – it was just me and the art.

 

So, I guess where I go to relax is in Art.  In a about 30 minutes – I will find it in a bag of chocolate chip cookies.  😉

Wedding trends in Madison WI 2013

Posted on by

What’s trendy in 2013 for weddings?  Well to start with Pantone recently announced it’s “Color Of The Year” – Emerald Green!  We added some of this fabulous color to the site to help inspire those that visit us here.  They are already wearing the color on the Red Carpets in Hollywood and I’m thinking there will be a few bridesmaids wearing it this season as well.

Also, cupcakes are still a hot ticket for those spunky couples that just can’t do traditional wedding cake.  I think it’s a great way to add flavors that everyone will love without all the leftover cake that will dry out while you’re on your honeymoon!

And last but not least – 2013 is going glam!  Yes it’s true.  This year look for brides to be bringing back a bit of old Hollywood mixed in with today’s hot ticket designers.  Luxurious faux furs, sparkly bling in all the right places (then again, is there a wrong place for bling?) and some life changing shoes.
