Accordion pink


Between painting, new illustrations, the staggering excitement of my art on display in New York City, and searching for Renaissance nightgowns and vintage dresses, I've also been heavily focusing my attention on photography. It's always been a playful hobby, but I've decided to take it more seriously these days... so here's a little behind-the-scenes peek at a shoot I did yesterday.

As for the vintage dress I'm wearing, the beautiful combination of romanticism and petal pink gives new meaning to unexpected antique store discoveries.

Found some great alternative styles here, here, and here.

Face Time with Red Wine

Through the looking glass of a little green Beetle... Unaffected, I paid little attention to the insufferable ambiance that lent a mere 22 degrees or to an audience of six casual observers who felt it mandatory to applaud the larking about of my camera love child. So we clambered into the cold steel of one such orphaned shopping cart and went on our happy way. Special thanks to the lovely Vicen for featuring me in LOOK 10 ... thanks a million sweetie!

Raindrops on roses

No doubt, the unpredictable weather could easily be diagnosed with some clinical personality confusion… because apparently, these days, Mother Nature is watching a lot of Girl Interrupted. So amidst the come and go as you please thunderstorms as well enduring television alerts for all of suburbia, we came to a mutual agreement that playing around in the backyard was all the further we needed to travel.

The Carousel Ride

A little storytelling... A modicum of silence swallowed the room as dusty shards of sunlight patterned the multicolored carpet. Decorated with an army of garish jewelry, everything jingles, almost intentionally, as the woman perched behind the large candy counter brushes invisible lint from her blouse. Her silvery hair is the color of cotton candy. She offers a genuine smile before shifting her gaze downcast towards her slender hands. Briefly, she examines their delicate surface that is creviced by time and wiser than yesterday. At four quarters per ride, it was a small price for six minutes of uncontaminated childhood reminiscence to sweep the memory warehouse. And while we kept the company of an epoch 1920’s carousel, 60 handcrafted horses, and funky reindeer, we went round and round, faster and faster… letting it take us to those secret places we almost forgot existed. --Bella H. p.s.
