Encouraging everyone to create more art, in my favorite colors!
Crow, by www.spagaten.com - beautiful!Posted by Kira on April 27, 2009
ok, so maybe not weekly…but I still love the challenge!

Hidden wondersPosted by Kira on February 23, 2009
I visited our flickr group today and found this beauty. The vase itself is stunning to me- but I noticed something else in the photo. This is not a problem, to me, rather it is intriguing. Photography “purists” might comment on this in a negative way, but I’ll put my spin on it. I can [...]
Just got back from a week in Vegas!Posted by Kira on February 3, 2009
I’m looking forward to next week’s entries. I just went to the ASTD Techknowlege conference, which is all about the industry of my “Day job”, which is ELearning. I am an instructional designer, apparently. That means I create content to be used in online courses. It also, alas, meant that last week I didn’t do [...]

Butterflies and flowers- nature’s perfect orange and pink!Posted by Kira on
Check out this photo from a friend’s husband- he captured a monarch on a hydrangea. I can’t think of a better way to showcase this color combination in nature, can you? Click it to see more of Ken’s photos.
My first Orange and Pink Art Challenge! an art journal, for me.Posted by Kira on December 27, 2008
I finally, after years of wistfully reading Somerset Studio, before “altered art” was a 10 cent term, I have begun my art journal. The front and back covers are delightful glittered paper, in orange and pink of course! I uploaded a photo of the covers of the journal to the flickr group.
I have started a [...]
