I love photography! I go outside with my camera though I know there isn’t much to be found. Although, yesterday I have to say, every where I looked there was something beautiful that had to be captured. So here are some of my best photos that were taken yesterday, and some old ones too. 
I love close up photography.. : ) 
 
I know majority of people after seeing this photo are going to quiver slightly… And I did also when I saw him on the steps outside but I truly believe he would have been just as scared as I was, if not more! So I smiled, took a photo and left him alone. : ) 
This plant is absolutely beautiful! I adore the colours! The way they are positioned almost seems as if they about to start singing! Have you ever seen the sky more vibrant!? I love the afternoons when you look out the window and the sky is bursting with colour and the whole atmosphere is just… magical! 

This was taken early this year at a farm. I can’t pin point what I love about it, I just love it in general : )
The sun makes everything okay! Doesn’t it? 
This isn’t a photo of mine, however I thought it was quite appropriate : ) I hope everyone has a magical new year’s eve and that  the new year to come brings health and happiness.  See you all in 2010!! 

Stay Magical,

On christmas eve we were out of wrapping paper! Not a single sheet in sight! So I went straight to the old potato stamp! I got an A3 sheet on paper and started. I originally planned to have each start a different colour, but I soon realized putting all the colours on one paint pallet was not a good idea… So there sort of.. multicoloured stars.. : ) regardless of weather the colours mixed into rather… unusual shades, I still love it! 

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! hehe : )

Howdy all! 
So as we all know (or maybe not) Christmas is next Friday!  I only recently became aware of how close it actually was when I over heard some people talking about it. So now everyone is fretting about gifts, guests, locations and of course food! It is a hectic season for some, but not for me! I love everything about Christmas! The cheer, togetherness, the lights on houses, the christmas trees and recipes! 
Today  I found my Mum looking through a stack of recipe books and I thought that was quite the christmas spirit! So I drew her. 
And here are some Christmas food inspired things I found on Etsy! Enjoy!

I know they may seem silly, but I think christmas tree dresses are very festive and jolly! Yeah, I would wear one! why not?  If not me, then maybe my illustrations… : )

Have a merry Tuesday,

You may be surprised to know, that I have never seen snow! yes, its true. I have seen pictures of it, read about it and watched videos regarding it, but never have I actually seen it. How lovely it would be if it snowed on christmas day! I could go outside and watch the snowflakes fall magically from the sky. I could touch it with my bare hands and make snowmen! For now, here are some beautiful photos involving snow, I suppose for now they will make do.. : ) 


 

Stay Magical ( and merry!) ,
Claudia
