I have no idea what it is about them, but shots of alleys, paths, roads and anything else with a similar orientation just rock my world..I'm an odd bird, I realize this...so here is my favorite image today that captures this element...

I bought this photo from on Etsy a few weeks ago and am so smitten that I have kept it in my studio so I can gaze at it when I work...
I adore where I live and would never move to France, but if I did, I would want to live on a street with pink lanterns.

I have become a huge fan of the photography by and have been looking for the perfect excuse to use this photo in a post and what better day then Valentines Day? I already have two of her photos on my new wall and know that I will collect more, as each time I see her stuff I want, NEED her work in my home, wonderfully inspiring to me! Enjoy the Love!

When I brought Faye out this morning I was greeted by warmer weather then we've had and snow melting all around me...I know its still early, but when I stumbled upon the Spring Colors photo on Etsy I started to get that itch...the "I am so sick of ice and snow, bring me blossoming trees now!" feeling. If it stays warm out, Shanley and I are taking Faye for a walk this afternoon, yay!
(which I am ordering in notecards, and so excited about...as I LOVE notecards!)
I have a thing for photography...which if you are a regular reader here, you a well aware of this thing, which kind of borders on an obsession, but whatever...anyway...I have been accumulating prints again and hung up a bunch of them last night, yay! I am also pleased to say that I eyeballed the hanging of all of these prints...and I really like how close they are together, so I am going to rearrange the wall at the end of the bed too...I'll show you when its done...the frames are back ordered.
I am also noticing that my bed has become a bit pillow crazed...oh my...new pillows this year mean more fluff and my bed is starting to look out of a Victorian novel...how did that happen????
There is no better feeling then a snow day...you are giving the gift of time essentially and tonight the restaurant has closed due to the snow so I have a Snow Night! The most logical solution as anyone who works in a restaurant knows, would be to gather a group of friends later on tonight and trek around to all of the bars in the village...one of the very best perks of living in a village is that you are not kept inside in bad weather...so hopefully this plan works! Before all of the merriment however I am going to sit down at my jewelry desk and put some serious work into the new line...yay for snow!

I know, I know I have been a naughty absent blogger, but I have never worked as hard in my life as I did in the past 5 weeks and being a major workaholic...that's a lot of working. I am really glad the holidays are over or I would have had a mental breakdown...seriously. Everything is pretty much getting back to normal as of today...although I still have to finish cleaning my studio...and I was in desperate need of some errand running, which I finally got to today...like grocery shopping and dropping off the dry cleaning.
I also have had a chance to do some image browsing online and tonight I may actually get to blog jump, which I have not been able to do for weeks! I just bought some prints from Etsy too, as I have such a weakness for photographs and as I have sold a few paintings on manictrout.com (gasp, I know!!!) I have some wall space open. Thought I would share one of them with you, as its just too pretty to keep all to myself.
I have also been finally able to set up the new computer...a 17" Mac Book Pro which I adore and got all the software on both machines upgraded and everything networked, which has been so much fun to do...so many new possibilities!
I also have new jewelry up my sleeve, and it will be up soon as Valentines Day is right around the corner and there has been oodles of new press, but I have yet to update the press page, so you'll have to wait for that!
OK, now back to work for me, as it never really does end, does it?

Its really dreary outside today...and cold...and the sky keeps spitting out snow/hail/rain type weather...icky. I thought it was the perfect time to share one of my new favorite photogs and give you a dose of brilliant color...meet Mrs. French, the talented lady behind Bliss and the taker of some fantastic photographs!
