Getting Ready For Easter
Luckily not as much as for Christmas....
But Easter has it's own beauty and charm.

Art at the Shore
As Spring is finally returning...
So is the lure of the beach.
Took a power beach walk the other morning with a good friend.
She came across this little lovely.....
Isn't it sweet?

Formal Gardens
Simple and Elegant.
May not work in my own garden...
But so lovely to look at and enjoy.... and to dream of...

Spring is Finally Here!
The Vernal Equinox!
It is here....finally...YIPEE!!
At 7:02 AM Spring will FINALLY be here.
I could not be happier.
It has taken it's sweet time in coming.
But I won't complain.
And yes, Winter still has it's grip.
But there are hopeful signs everywhere.
Spring break arrives next week and we will be celebrating Easter.
And the crocus blooms are peaking out through the snow and the remaining dried up leaves.
Tulips and Daffodils are breaking through the ground.
Yes, Spring is making it's way back....and with that...
The warmer weather will too.
Ah, Happy Vernal Equinox Everybody!
Happy Spring!

Rainy Days and Tuesdays......
They don't always get me down.....
Instead...it might just be time for a nice cup of tea and good magazine.
What are you doing?

Amazing Photos
On a day trip last summer I came across the most beautiful coffee table book
which featured photos from the amazing photographer Nick Brandt.
I so wanted to buy the book, but it quite pricey and couldn't justify the expense.
But I did google his work.
Here are some photos from that book.
Here are some photos from that book.
I did absolutely nothing to his photographs.
They are too perfect just the way they are.
I just wanted to share his work with you.
Enjoy.

When asked what our favorite animals are....
our family's top three would be ....
1) Sea Turtles 2) Sharks and 3) Alligators
Surprised? I do have 3 boys after all!

A favorite from a local aquarium
OK, I know, but real sharks are hard to photograph!
South Carolina has alligators too, didn't you know...
A rare albino alligator

Lavender Fields
I love lavender.
And this photo of lavender fields in the South of France is so pretty.
Just love it.
(Again, I did not take it, but tweaked it, as I say.)
You can almost smell the lavender, can't you?

Snowy Day Inspiration
A good day to catch up on reading some of my favorite blogs.
I usually save some of the snapshots posted for my own inspiration.
Below are some of my favorite relating to art.
I did not take any of the photos, but I did tweak them,
And I find them even more inspiring.
Enjoy.
