June: Art to Inspiration

It has taken me a while to get around to doing this month's Art to Inspiration, even though when I first saw this image, I was excited about it because right away an image clicked in my mind of what I wanted to pair it with. I saw the turquoise blue, the hanging objects and immediately knew.

So here it is, folks!

Jill Ricci's Float took me back to the streets of Bombay, India (y'all know how much I love a clothes line!)

May: Art to Inspiration

YES! It's time for another installment of Art to Inpsiration, folks!

This month, we're looking at Echoes of Fragrant Voice by Jo Howe

What an interesting piece of work! Abstract and minimalist, with just two shades, light and dark. Which is very much what I look for in subject matter, as a photographer. Lightness and darkness together creating shape, and you need one shape to highlight the other.

In breaking this beautiful work into basic shapes of light and dark, I was then inspired by my own minimalist photograph taken in Santorini. Light and dark working in harmony.

March: Art to Inspiration

This month's Art to Inspiration comes from an artist named HENSE. This particular work is entitled Moonlight.

When I first laid eyes on the image and having just spent a couple of weekends in NYC, it immediately brought to mind the hustle and bustle of NYC reminding me also of the blue sky reflected in the windows of the buildings and of course, the iconic yellow cabs. 

"HENSE" (a little play on words), here is my inspiration.
