<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello,</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am very sorry for I have not posted anything for such a long time. There are so many stories I would like to share with you. But I am going to fast forward before I talk about other stories.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have been wanting to conduct a watercolor workshop - and I dreamt about being a teacher for a long time. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Although this is the second time I had a workshop, I pretty much know what to do and prepared for the materials I wanted to teach my students.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Since I love vintage china and high tea for as long as I can remember - I thought it would be a good idea to combine them together. I like the idea for a small intimate lovely and friendly water color class where my students and I can be girly girl friendly among each other. I deliberately give a long hours for the class so that people can enjoy painting and eating the food during class. Having a break and drinking tea and eating quiche and sand whiches seems to be a great idea. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I also prepared a booklet for my students. This booklet contained a basic technique on how to paint flower watercolor also some important material like sources where they can get materials, and where they can learn basic flower on their own.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I was very happy because just before the class started someone from Japan contacted me if I am going to have another workshop which was requested by my friends in New York as well. We just have to set up the date. So it was a perfect timing for her and it happened that she was going to travel to New York. So I was very happy to have her in my class.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am hoping to conduct more watercolor workshops in the future. This is something I really like doing. Teaching others about basic flower watercolor is my passion. I would love to teach all what I know about flower watercolor to my students.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">So if you are interested or have a group of friends wanted to learn basic flower watercolor while having some good food out of vintage china I would like to teach you and your friends or your family.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Just contact me through email at Elmelati@gmail.com. Thank you.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">We were waiting for this trip for over a year. And finally it happened.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">It was all started almost 2 years a go when my best friend in school "Dina Yassin" whom is now living in Dubai texted me that she was going to get married and the reception will be in Italy - near Milan. I was shocked because I have not heard from her prior to that texted I received from her. Right away a happy tears started to form in my eyes because one I am very happy to hear the great news and second she still wanted to invite me to her wedding day after all of those years without any contact. Immediately I said "yes" that Steven and I will be there.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">The wedding was postponed as she initially planned. But a month a go was the big day and Steven and I were very excited to go and be there for her big day in Lake Maggiore, Italy. We also planned that after the wedding reception, we were going to visit Venice. None of us had visited Venice before although I visited Italy several times before.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Lake Maggiore was beautiful beyond words. Just like I imagined it would be. Beautiful villas and hotels on the side of the lake a long the narrow winding road that goes on to the mountain top. In the middle of the lake are several small islands with red terracota stone building seen from a far. It was so enchanting and poetic to have witnessed such beauty. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Upon arrival in the hotel room I immediately took out my water color and painted the lake seen from our hotel window. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We spent the first two days by ourselves but it was raining almost everyday so we were taking it easy and enjoy the small town surrounding the hotel eating pasta, pizza and ice cream.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Long before the wedding day - Dina told me that I could take pictures of her during the reception. And I was very excited about this. This is a golden opportunity for a photographer.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And when I walked in the room where Dina was waiting to come out from the room for the reception - I could not believe how beautiful and elegant she looks. I wish I had more time to take pictures of her. But I did not want to overwhelm Dina with poses I wanted her to do. Because I knew she had so many things in her mind already. So I left and took pictures of the dining room and table setting.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">We really enjoyed Dina and Silvano's wedding reception. The location could had not been perfect - the setting by the lake Maggiore was just lovely. Everything was really beautiful. It was a night to remember and definitely a beautiful wedding of east meets west.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A day after the wedding reception we left for Venice. We drove to Malpensa airport - dropped the car there - took a bus to Milan's train station and went to Venice. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And oh my - Venice was like a dream. This was the first time for Steven and I in Venice. We could not believe what we saw. Steven kept on saying "I can't believe the whole city is on top of the water!" I was so very happy that I was in Venice, finally. This city is magical. I could not even begin to describe the feel of the city; the canal, the narrow street with beautiful ancient stone buildings one after another on each side of the street - the bell rang and heard from a far. It was like going back in time where before I could only see in a movie. I think I am in love with Venice.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The highlight of Venice trip for me was to paint at least two sites - which I did. One is a random building and the other one is our hotel. I had been wanting to do it before we departed. I was very happy that I got to do it. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The gondola ride was so much fun although we thought it was over priced - 85 Euros for half an hour! At least we tried it out for once.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Lake Maggiore <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">a<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">nd </span></span>Venice, Italy trip <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">is</span> always in our heart. We definitely will come back.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I think I mentioned before that I love photograph children.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Dawn, Thomas and Matthew's mom asked me, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">"isn't it better to photograph a wedding than children?"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> I said, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">"no! photograph a wedding is an all day event. Plus you have to carry heavy equipment. Unlike photograph children - the photographer just have to follow them around and just keep taking picture if they do not want to pose." </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">You can not go wrong try to capture the moment of young kids. They are the most adorable subject to capture with your camera. Perhaps because children does not try hard to pose - they do not care for being photographed. All they want is to play, making silly face, and having a good time. And that is what I tried to capture 'two brothers playing and having fun' hoping one day when they grow older that they can look at these pictures of moments that bond two brothers.</span></div>

I had only been in LA twice for a short period of time. The last time I was there before this trip, spent only a couple of days. So when my husband Steven asked to me join him a trip to California for business and a tennis tournament for a week - I said yes!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We stayed in Beverly Hills LA. It is an undeniable beautiful place. I love the Spanish style homes and what I love most is that each homes has beautiful landscape with mostly roses grown on the front garden. Not only in front of private homes - you can find roses growing on the side of a street where hundred people walk by. What I do not like about LA is the traffic. It seems to be a problem here because during rush hours traffic is really bad.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also took the opportunity to see a good friend of mine who lives and works in Beverly Hills. She took a day off and took me lunch in Malibu Beach and went to Huntington Beach after. It was so much fun to see her because we have so many friends that are now living in the US and Australia. So our conversation always about these people, how they are doing, and good old memories when we used to live in our country, Indonesia, etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From LA, we drove to Palm Springs. Our hotel was in the middle of a desert. I was immediately disappointed because it was ugly with grey and dry desert of sands as far as eyes could see. The hotel itself "The Agua Caliente Spa and Casino Resort" was nice. It is a resort with a spa and a casino. I wanted to see the pretty homes, town and landscape just like people told me, but where is it? One day, Steven and I drove around Palm Springs and found the strip where stores and restaurants are located in one boulevard. It was fun. Then we found an area called Las Palmas where the stars used to live back in 1970s I think. They are, Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, Liberace, Ronald Reagan, Dinah Shore, and many more. All of the stars that used to live here are deceased now even their children has grown old like Michael Douglas. This area is very pretty although the homes are small with a very low roof. I guess that is the style at the time. It is so different than a star's home these days. But it was very interesting to see. You can not see the house but only the gate because the plants grows very tall and the high wall between the beautiful entrance door. With the mountain in the background, no wonder that this area was popular back in the days. And I am sure still is.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unlike Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage is a new town. And the homes located surround the little town are beautiful, big, gated and new. You can see that this town built exclusively for rich people. Because all building looks new and some constructions are still going on. There are a lot of high end restaurants, shops, high end car dealers and hospitals. A sign that this town would be a popular destination in the future. We drove up in the mountain and saw some beautiful homes overlooking the sprawling hills of desert mountain. I can only imagined how it is being in the inside with swimming pool over looking the hills. But most of the homes are gated community which we can not go and see the inside.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The climate was very hot the three days when we were there. It was 96 deg and someone told us the climate could reach up to 120 deg. I must be honest that I am not fond about a desert. May be because I am used to a dry land with a hot climate for being born and raised in a tropical country. All and all it was a fun and interesting trip.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>The Ocean.</b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is Malibu Beach. My friend Tineke took me here to have lunch. You probably know already that there are many restaurants along this beach situated overlooking this beautiful beach/ocean. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you happened to be in LA, please do stop by at the Farmers Market. It is so much fun. This place is a traditional market with food, fruit and many other vendors inside and under one roof top. There is a Singaporean and Indonesian food vendor which a must for me to stop by as I was craving for Indonesian food. There are stores specifically sells tea, hot sauce, candy, chocolates, etc. What a fun market this is.</div>

Adjacent to this is market you can walk through a promenade into a row of modern fashion stores like Banana Republic, Top Shop, Zara, etc. And there is a beautiful fountain in the middle. It was a beautiful day that day since it has been a cold day when we arrived. So while my husband Steven went check out the stores I saw a small grass field right in the center where people were laying down. There is a booth where you could get a free blanket to lay on. So I helped myself and laying down for a while. It was nice. I then stole some portrait of the people sitting around me.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So if you are an artist, like me - you are likely have ton of brushes, colored pencils, markers, rulers, etc. The question is where are all of those stationery or art supplies being put in? I like them being put in an interesting, unique container I could find. Not only they are functional but also pretty as a decoration on your working table.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I found mine all over - it could be in a cheapest thrift stores like Goodwill, Habitat Humanity TJ Maxx and Home Goods. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I like browsing around thrift stores looking for a small interesting knick knack like a small ceramic vase, a pretty glass or a cup, even a silver ware. Anything that have the right size, color, material to hold paint brushes. And they cost cheaply that I wont spend more than USD 4.00 per container. Over time and since I have a lot of colored pencils, brushes from school days; I collected many of these little jars to hold them all. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">When they are not in use - they look pretty group them together somewhere in your studio.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">---o0o---</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">These are ceramic vases I got from Goodwill. They only cost about USD 1.50 or USD 2.00 each.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I always been fascinating with arts and paintings. To me, a room is not a room without any art on it's wall.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Since I myself is "an artist", it's obvious that I like to decorate rooms in my house with arts - "my arts" exactly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I started out by learning how to paint using oil. Then for a short period of time I used gouache when I worked at textile company as textile artist.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Later on I explored with acrylic and I fell in love with acrylic. It is a water base medium and very easy to use and to manipulate to create texture. For a long time I painted only with acrylic as a hobby. My subject was an abstract. To me, painting abstract is a way of an expression. What I feel can be felt through the brush strokes and shape within the art itself.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Recently I explored painting with water color. And painting a bottle of perfume with water color came suddenly in me about almost 2 years a go. Since then I never stop painting bottle of perfumes. More on my online Etsy store, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/EllyaArte?ref=hdr_shop_menu">here</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">In my opinion and after studying how the experts decorate arts in modern day's homes - I came up with other arts to display together with the water color perfume arts. These bold geometric abstract monochromatic arts is pretty to hang side by side with the perfume drawing arts. Again if you interested to see, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/EllyaArte?ref=hdr_shop_menu">here</a>. In this post, I displayed and took picture just how I did it and to show you how.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">This post is part one. Next time in part two, I will be talking about how to choose "frames" for the arts. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">~~~oo00oo~~~ </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> Mixing bold art with the perfume arts is a successful way to create a beautiful wall art display. Not only the monochromatic grays are neutral that goes with any color but it is bold enough and yet texturized to compliment the perfume arts. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Displaying vignettes under the hanging arts is another way to decorate a room. Here, the sculptured horse is an object and accentuate by a small bouquet of pink roses. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIWAfqwUIAa0iPZIsFNGYekGtJhPdcDEDvKpbfc6Qb6WsYjAxcZNMECvhjybAYthO_TiHIpGrCwFBbeMtES2aUAO-ZP5HDu7268z9oFo5VecgmWQGYfNMU-ffzCUM3T8Mt0299g-dUwa7i/s1600/1341.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIWAfqwUIAa0iPZIsFNGYekGtJhPdcDEDvKpbfc6Qb6WsYjAxcZNMECvhjybAYthO_TiHIpGrCwFBbeMtES2aUAO-ZP5HDu7268z9oFo5VecgmWQGYfNMU-ffzCUM3T8Mt0299g-dUwa7i/s640/1341.jpg" width="456" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> Here the perfume arts displayed with two monochromatic geometric abstract arts. And the arts decorated with fresh roses arrangements underneath. Adding a small sculptured decorative arts is another way to create a beautiful group of arts in a small corner of a room.</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For a small table - a single is pretty to display with other vignettes. Try to create vignettes with different shapes like skinny and large, short and tall to add interest and balance. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcQibYHpwkE7eKQo-dDcbJuuEE6S6BFBOaPCOujQJQAaOD4gSkXE796rfEFHxr0u1vg18J0l9AZ5dc7-DPlimXkgZekXDQey_qWe-3bFEpxsImHrSA2y_FPS_tKRdcTZo-Xtt7Mx5S62Y9/s1600/1329.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcQibYHpwkE7eKQo-dDcbJuuEE6S6BFBOaPCOujQJQAaOD4gSkXE796rfEFHxr0u1vg18J0l9AZ5dc7-DPlimXkgZekXDQey_qWe-3bFEpxsImHrSA2y_FPS_tKRdcTZo-Xtt7Mx5S62Y9/s640/1329.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Again, a small perfume art is another pretty way to create beautiful corner console table. I always love roses, so adding bouquet of roses always create an instant pretty to the whole setting. Layering ar<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">ts is another <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">beautiful <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">way to tell story about a group of vignettes that <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">being displayed. Choose contrast <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">bold <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">arts together. What I mean by bold is that a busy pattern sometimes is hard to decorate<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">, it need another s<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">kill on itself<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> to pull it off. Choose opp<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">osite frames, thin and thick but not too busy<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> - and <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">very s<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">mall frame against big one.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Actually there is no rules in painting flowers in water color but "practice."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">If I have to be honest and come up with one rule is that try to copy the shape and color of the flowers as close as possible. It is actually does not matter if it is not exactly like the real flowers. I love it very much when it is a little off but still showing a suggestion that it is a "rose", "hibiscus" or "sun flower". Most of the time I never copy it exactly the same. And after so many practices - you will ended up with your own style.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When walking around places find and pick a small brunch of leaves with flowers. Since most places is not allow to pick flowers - you have to extra careful when going around and try to pick flowers from public areas. It is okay to ask people if you can pick one little brunch of leaves with it's flowers. Mostly people do not mind as it is just wild flowers and will not show the difference to the whole plants if you pick one stem.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Or you can also pick a stem of leaves and practice with leaves first. And just having fun.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You start to paint any where in the paper. At this point it does not matter because you are practicing. Whenever there are more space left - you can use that space to paint other leaves or flower.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I could not be more excited when a beautiful young lady called me about receiving a gift card from a friend of mine for a maternity photo sessio<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">n (<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">last posted<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><a href="http://www.curiositaellya.blogspot.com/2015/11/photography-gift-card-diy.html"> here</a>).</span></span></span> She is the teacher of my girl friend's daughter. Astrid's daughter is very fond of her teacher and she is about to give birth to their first baby boy. So Astrid my girl friend bought a maternity photo session for her little girl's teacher "Victoria" from me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I remember our conversation was so smoothly. At first she wanted to be photographed out door but she truly realized by the time the baby bump is showing it will be in the middle of winter where we live in New York. So she settled to be photographed in my studio in my home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">She also wanted to be photographed wearing a see through maternity gown. Luckily I bought few materials from my trip to Jakarta Indonesia. I knew material are very cheap in Indonesia. So I bought several colors like pink, green, purple and white. I also wanted to sew these gowns myself. Although I never sewn a maternity gown - thought it could not be that difficult to do.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">By the time Victoria came to my house to see the studio, I showed her the materials and the gown sketch on a piece of paper. She was thrilled. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I was a little nervous about the gown because this was my first time creating a maternity gown. As you can see on below pictures it was beautiful on Victoria. I am <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">also proud to admit that I created the backdrop my<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">self. I always wanted an artis<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">tic backdrop<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> that gives a beautiful dark and light shadow playing around on the background that compliment and in contra<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">st with the people <span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">position</span> in front of it. Although it is hard to achieve it - I am keep on tweaking the paint but m<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">ore less I am happy about it. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> </span></span></span></span>And t</span></span>he session went smoothly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">A week a go I received an email from Victoria thanking me on how hard I worked for her and how fun the session was for them. And of course I am very happy for them too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Note: If you want a maternity session with me - I can make the gown for you. Ready made maternity gown can be very expensive. Just let me know and work with me in advance.</span></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Thank you so much! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Please forgive<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> me fo<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">r </span></span>I have not posted anything for almost a month now.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I have been having a severe cough that does not seem to go a way that cause a severe pain on my lower rib cage. I went to a Dr. and "thank God" I do not break any bone in the rib cage but the pain also seem to never go a way. Well, it goes with the cough. The cough caused a sore to the group muscle on lower rib cage around the back since the cough does not go a way the sore will never heal.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Right now I still cough a little and not as severe as a few weeks a go but the lower rib cage still in pain when I position myself a certain way. Anyway, this cough caused aching in chest and back to shoulder muscles and although I do not have fever it is very uncomfortable. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Right now we are in our home in Florida - with the sun shining I am hopeful it will dry and heal very soon.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Anyways, I wanted to talk about "how to photograph an art work for your blog".</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I love painting using water color here in our Florida home. I found it very soothing and peaceful. And I love photograph them as well. Thought I could share a few small tips on how to photograph them here on my blog.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">1. <i>Include "the object" of your art in the photo (in a vase).</i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Including an object of your art when photograph the art work itself is the best way to show case your art work in the blog. Here the Lisianthus flower in a vase. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">It can be on the side or right corner, left corner or from above. Scatter the flower petals around the art also a pretty way to show your art work on the blog.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I can't believe that it has been almost 2 years we have been living in this house.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">There is not much change in the decoration in hour home. But I did add a small decorative items here and there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I did not wish to have a Christmas tree in the house for Christmas this year. Our family is not a devoted Christian. Having a half Italian and half Jewish husband - and myself as a Moslim we celebrate Christmas just to follow Steven's mother side of tradition. We do celebrate Passover as Steven's father is Jewish himself. And me as a Moslim, we get to celebrate Ied as well. So we get to taste a little of everything in our house hold.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">To have a Christmas feel in the house I only put a Christmas wreath placed on top of the mantel. And on the mantel I put the small decorative Christmas trees I created last year. That is the only Christmas decoration in the entire home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The plan was to have Steven's mother come over for Christmas eve dinner. And it is Steven's mother side of the family whom are "Italian" that sea food is ideal to serve during Christmas eve.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Steven told me that I should not put too much of small decorative items as the room will look overly crowded. And I totally agreed with him about this.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I bought the two tole brass sconces on each side of the mirror from Ebay. And I love them very much. Ebay has so many beautiful stuff similar to these that I can get carried a way buying for the home. I think a good decorator is to know when to stop decorate. And I think I better stop now.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I adore the Eiffel Tower decorative sculpture on the coffee table. We bought it the last time we visited Paris. If you ever came to Paris you will not miss seeing vendors selling this cute mini Eiffel Tower at most famous landmark in Paris. And you must get one or two for yourself or as gifts to friends and families.</span></div>

Playing with gift wrap, ribbon and winter plants gives a pretty hand made one of kind wrap as a gift to your love one. Do not afraid about the color, the more contrast they are in color - the prettier it became. I also like to create my own gift tag. I usually painted a leaves cut out using water color. It surely create a special feel to the person you are giving the gift to.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> This floral decor does not have much of Christmas feel to it. But it is pretty to decor your home during winter time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I love Christmas decor very much but since I am not Christian and my husband Steven is half Jewish and half Italian - there is not much Christmas celebration going on around our home. Still I enjoy to decor my home with a Christmas spirit a little.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Since fresh flower can be costly - I bought a few of silk fake flower at Michaels. Still is costly but I can decor them forever any time I want.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I decorated the silk white peonies with winter greens grows outside my door step. And I think I love it very much.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Here are the plants I found outside my home except for the white flowers. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I had a client that asked me if I sell gift card for photography session. I immediately like the idea that my client wanted me to sell her a gift card from my own photography session.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I love creating graphic images using Photoshop software in the computer. Then I searched through google if there are templates for gift cards. To my surprise there are a lot of various gift cards templates from google searched. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">From the original template I picked, usually I changed it a little. It can be the color or the font.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The small card with my photography business information on it attached to a larger card and says, "thank you for being an amazing teacher." The small card can be taken out and perfectly fit in a wallet to keep.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The envelope decorated with a small cord and embellished with a small decorative flower. A small tag is attached where the student's name can be written whom the card is from. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I created all of these pieces my own including the envelope. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Here, my client wanted to give a gift card for a maternity or newborn session to her little girl's teacher. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So here is the gift card I created for her.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">As I mentioned a few times before - I love taking picture of children. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">There are something about children when they are expressing their innocent faces - just adorable! I can take their pictures forever with hundreds pictures of them.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When the Moms brought them over to my house and into my studio - I got very excited. What I love most about taking picture of these kids is the interaction with them. I love directing them, telling them how to pose, to smile, etc. It is the most exciting part when being with them and watching them following your instructions. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">We were in Orlando last week end attending a friend's son 3 days wedding venue. And just days before departed for the trip I had a maternity session - since she is a repeat client, I told her that I could send the edited images before I left for Florida. Little that I know I was under a panic attack because I had too many things to do and couldn't post the edited images to her on time. So thought that I could post it from Orlando the next day I arrived. And it was Friday.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So that Friday morning the hotel shuttle bus dropped me to the nearest post office. And I was relieved that the package was on it's way to her in New Jersey.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I was not bother to call the hotel shuttle bus to pick me up, instead I decided to walk back to the hotel. To be honest - it is not a pleasant area to be walking around since there are not much to see in that small town called College Park but I decided to walk back anyway.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">And that is when I saw the small restaurant called Infusion Tea. I was not that hungry but I walked in to check around thinking that I might want to come back the next day with my husband Steven. The waitress was very friendly to let me walked around the store and read the menu. I love what I was seeing; rows and rows of jars of loose tea placed against the wall. And many small jars filled with loose tea sitting on the counter that each labelled with it's tea name. To me, the whole scene is the prettiest. I can't wait to try some of the tea but said to my self,</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> "not today - but will definitely come back tomorrow."</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">That night was the beginning of the wedding venue; the rehearsal dinner! During dinner I can't wait for morning to come so that I could come back to Infusion Tea restaurant.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The next day I dragged my husband to the restaurant for lunch. I knew he does not drink tea let a lone an organic vegetarian food. But he was kind enough to come with me.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">With great excitement we ordered the combo - quiche with tea cucumber sand whiches for me and quiche with capresse sand which for Steven and both of us ordered Moroccan Mint ice tea.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I asked the head of the waitress if I could take a few pictures and she said yes. So while waiting for our lunch I took some pictures of the interior of the restaurant. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The Moroccan Mint ice tea was light, fresh, soothing and delicious. The food that we ordered was incredibly tasty. Even Steven said it was good considered he usually do not like vegetarian food.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">When we left the restaurant I kept on thinking that I wanted to come back the next morning to try other food and tea on the menu. But we did not have time left.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I was very tired from the 3 days wedding venue and lack of sleep. That's why I slept on the car on our way to our home in Delray Beach. I think I dreamt of entering a restaurant with rows of glass jars filled with loose tea sitting on a shelf against the wall.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">If you happened to be in Orlando, Florida please check out this place. And if you like me who love 'tea' - I guarantee you will like this place (Infusion Tea), <a href="http://www.infusionorlando.com/">here</a>.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I was very excited when these two little boys finally at my door step. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Holding their mother's arm slowly they walked down to my studio in the basement. It was not long to take them to feel comfortable. They were running around - looking around curiously as boys supposed to be in a new environment. And it was not long for them to sit on the bench where I had covered with the fury rug for them to sit on.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The older boy was very easy to photograph. He obediently followed his mother's instructions. Unlike the brother, the younger brother were not cooperated very well. They came a long with the mother's sister. Kelli the mother's name told me that they listens well to her sister.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Each time the aunt try to make the younger brother to sit still, she would pull out a few M&M candy near the bench so that he would sit there next to the brother. To my surprise it works very well.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">But there is a down side to the M&M candy because he had chocolate saliva around his mouth on some of the images which took me a long time to edit.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Over all the shoot was very easy and fun for me at the same time. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I love taking picture of children for their innocent expression - even whey they made a funny face. I must say children is one of my favorite subject to photograph.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">And I could not be happier with my DIY back drop (<a href="http://www.curiositaellya.blogspot.com/2015/09/diy-photography-back-drop.html">here</a>). I am looking forward to many photo shoots in front of this back drop. And I am thinking to create another one especially for maternity photography. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I think I found my true passion; photography.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Although I love very much the peacefulness of art and painting activity, what I love about photography is the interaction with people. To direct and give suggestion so that they will look natural and pretty on the picture. And above all to finally see the beautiful transformation of their pictures from my camera. To me, it is a another way of art and painting. My understanding of light has improved in photography and now with a camera in my hand I can paint beautiful picture with light; it can be a natural light or artificial light. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">It takes a lot of practice to be able to see these lights through the camera lens and it takes years to master them. One must take so many and if not thousands or ten thousands of pictures under different light conditions to be able to finally capture it's beauty. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Once you are able to see and understand the light the sky is the limit, and you will enjoy photography even more. But there is another element you need to master as well - photo editing soft ware like Photoshop Lightroom or Photoshop CS. Beside mastering on how to use the application of these soft wares on to your pictures, you must understand the relationship of your raw picture to the warm and cool tone color in these soft wares. Again, this skill takes a lot of practice. I still have not mastered the use of Photoshop Lightroom but know enough to use the tools to edit all of my images.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The other part that I love about photography is styling. I seem to enjoy styling a person for a photo session. It can be a senior photo session or it can be a newborn session. Ideally I wanted to shoot a maternity and style the happy mom to be so she will look beautiful and radiant in front of the back drop I made. I love the process of choosing the right outfit and props that goes with it. Not only that, to get the right color of the outfit and it's props are equally important. I think I have a good eye to able to see the overall look first hand before it turned into pictures. The skin tone of a person also play an important role on how the over all look of the picture itself. So even though I am 'the photographer' I always involve and must give a suggestion to my client to choose the right outfit and props. The other thing that come in handy in my photography venture is that I love doing a "DIY". I can sew - so I created or I will create more outfit like maternity sheer skirt as a prop along with other prop that she can wear a well. Although this is a craft I created or I will create - I do not want it to look 'crafty' on the final picture. My goal is that I wanted my client and their pictures to look like a fine art photography.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">On below pictures, I found the dress through an internet search <a href="http://www.sammydress.com/product1722787.html">(here</a>) and I created the flower crown for Nicole to wear.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I am not going to talk about that into detail but this is my first in door studio portrait photo shoot with my painted back drop. Although the back drop is not perfect, I know it will be better for the next shoot. Because I already know how to improve and what to fix. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Thank you so much for stopping by!curiositaellyahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06199593174093802071noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147744329273070774.post-34068566560719071132015-09-07T20:01:00.002-04:002015-09-07T20:02:21.840-04:00//Pink Tea Tin Box as a Vase//<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I love browsing a department store like T J Max, Home Goods or Marshall even when I do not need any particular item to buy. You will never know what you can find. These stores are great places to find something unusual and pretty. And the price are good that you can go there almost everyday to find something small for home decoration. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I found this Tea Tin Box in T J Max. For USD 3.99 I do not mind spending even even if I do not like the coconut tea flavor inside which when opened and tried the tea; I did not like the taste at all. But I could use the tin box as a vase.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Styling, decorating and taking picture of it was as much fun.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So next time you go to any of these stores, open your eyes wide open and enjoy all the little things in the store. And if there is nothing there that does not grab you; just walk out the door and come back some other time.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This is a way long over due project. But finally, this morning I laid the last brush strokes on the canvas back drop. And took some pictures.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfxrPFSIXJV_WKNOXO_02diYmZER0h33SIIJ9DI78JjdO_cAm-nMyHVMKzdcmgPZphvh77A5ekrd_otxtVG3F-mr918Wz7T4P9QfcyzhQST6lHRW5OFXTZo-HJsmQnwsZdC0_DbdFjjb_-/s1600/Header.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfxrPFSIXJV_WKNOXO_02diYmZER0h33SIIJ9DI78JjdO_cAm-nMyHVMKzdcmgPZphvh77A5ekrd_otxtVG3F-mr918Wz7T4P9QfcyzhQST6lHRW5OFXTZo-HJsmQnwsZdC0_DbdFjjb_-/s640/Header.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Before I go on and explaining the materials and how about I am doing it - I will divide this project in 4 stages. Since this is my first DIY photography back drop, everything I did here was based on my painting skill. I searched on the internet prior to do this - but I found none of them explaining it in detail. So since I am an artist - I thought to myself that this could not be that difficult. But wanted to start the project was a dragging for me. You know, in your head you wanted just to start and do the project but your physical being just won't move toward that direction. It kept telling me, do it tomorrow. Then the next day came - it kept on telling me the same thing again until months later. I knew I wanted to do this before summer ends. And it was already August. Because when the cold weather start to come my basement will be very cold and there is no way I could spend a long time working in the basement. So just to get me going, I hired a friend of mine to start it off and to do the ironing off of the creases and priming. Sure enough, after that I did not stop until this morning - it was 2 weeks a go.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Now that it is finished, I could not be happier with the result. I can't believe it is so beautiful. I tested it out to photograph still life of roses - it is gorgeous. I can't wait in a few days I will have a beautiful model "Nicole" to be photographed in front of my DIY back drop.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So let's start with the material I used. It is very important to have all materials ready with in reach. Another equally important is a large space. But it all depends on the size of the back drop it self.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So now let's first talk about the material.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Get these materials from a Dollar store.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">1. A mop with a rag attached to it USD 1.99. This is to drip the paint.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">2. 3 large bowls USD 1.00 ea = USD 3.00</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">3. 2 Paint pails USD 1.50 = USD 3.00</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Get these at Home Depot.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">1. I used drop cloth bought size 9 feet by 12 feet at Home Depot through internet. Cost about USD 32.00 </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">2. A roll of plastic wide enough to lay under the drop cloth so the paint won't seep through to the floor. Approx. USD 2.00</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">3. 2 cans of primer USD 9.00 each = USD 18.00</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">4. 2 cans of base or mid tone color from Behr brand USD 9.00 each = USD 18.00</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">5. A wide cheap paint brush USD 2.50</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">6. A medium size paint roller USD 5.00</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">7. 4 sample cans of paint, the darkest and the lightest USd 3.50 each = USD 14.00 (Mine is about 9 different sample paints but you do not have to)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Total = USD 99.50</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">First get the crease off of the folded drop cloth. I used steam iron. Then on an open space out door or in door like in a basement lay the plastic sheet and put the drop cloth on top of it. Using a roller, paint the primer on the entire drop cloth. You can dilute the primer with a little bit of water. Let it dry for 24 hours as per instruction. Then using the same roller, paint the base coat (this is your mid tone color). And let it dry for 24 hours. When it dries - put a generous amount of the lightest colors in paint bowl and put some water in it. Using the mob pick up some paint and drip it all over the cloth. Concentrating in the middle outward but do not let it covers the entire to side of the cloth. Then do the same with the darkest paint. Splatter it on top the brightest color. Let it dry. When it dries. Take the wide brush pick up the darkest paint on the tip of the brush and start dry brush the edge of the cloth.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Your back drop will look a little like this.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I photographed an object in front of it. I used my son's teddy bear. But the texture of paint looks boring and too even out. I need to work more on this. At this point, taking picture is important because then you know what color need to put on and what area need more work. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">STAGE 2</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">At this point the back drop looks too blueish in color. It needs dark green. So using a dry brush I dry brushed dark green here and there concentrate only on the outer part of the cloth toward the middle just a little. As you can see I added the darkest green but it shows a green spots, the ones I circled. </span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Now I need to see the contrast between the back drop and the object - since the teddy bear is in blue and brown in color, I bought some pink roses to see the contrast. And before I photographed the roses I dry brushed some of the dark green off with dark brown color - called "Potting Soil".</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">STAGE 2</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Now I just have to see the brightest and the darkest and where all of these two colors being placed in relation to the model when standing up in front of it. I just have to use my judgement since I do not have anyone at home but me. Again, I used the roses as the model. I wanted the the darkest dark on my lower hand side and the bright in the middle toward upward on my right hand side. So I enhanced it a little more, using the color palette I had chosen earlier. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I also dry brushed the lightest color of grey aqua color just to make it pretty. And painted it lightly on the lightest part of the canvas.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Just to let you know that the location of this setting was in the basement of my house. So it was very dark. And my light source is coming from my right side. You can see it on the last picture. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Sands Point Preserve is a preserve surrounding the Guggenheim Estate located on the Long Island Sound(<a href="http://thesandspointpreserve.com/">here</a>). The mansion was once belongs to the Guggenheim family and it is now belongs to the city of of Port Washington where people can visit the house that is now a museum. The estate surrounds by ponds, woodland, walking trail, meadows, and a beach.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> The beach is not like a real beach by the ocean. It is an estuary a place where the salt water mixes with fresh water. This sound is between Eastern shore of New York City and Westchester County, Southern part of Connecticut. So the water is much more calm, not blue in color and shallow. Still it is nice to walk a long the small beach or playing and swimming in the water. The good thing about it is that not too many people know about this preserve. So on Sunday during summer not to many people are there. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So since we did not have anywhere or plan to go to this Sunday - Steven and I decided to visit the Sands Point Preserve that we heard from a friend. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">We just sat by the beach and enjoyed the sun. Each time I go to the beach, I always like looking at the stones, shells that the waves washes to the shore. This time I was thrilled to have found a few sea glasses. And of course took a few pictures.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Here are 6 water color flowers and 8 water color perfume arts especially made for a client. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I always enjoy working for a job commission. I always extra careful in painting them because I wanted my passion shows on the art it self. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">These arts are very easy and casual for a bedroom, home office or even powder room.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">When my client does not know where to frame them - I always try to help them to find a reasonable art frames on line. Or since they already spent a good amount on the arts itself - I try to help them to do a DIY (Do It Yourself) solution. This is a cheaper way to create a beautiful frame without breaking the bank as you know, framing can be costly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I thought I am sharing these arts with you.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I have been doing art since I was living in Jakarta, Indonesia almost 25 years a go.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">At first I was using oil only.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Then after graduating from Fashion Institute of Technology New York in 2001 I started to explore with eacrylic and other mediums.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Right after graduation I worked for a textile company as a Print Artist and Design mainly using gouache. I enjoyed it very much but life took a different turn as I suddenly got ill and hospitalized for 2 months.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">After recovery I continued working as Assistant Stylist for Victoria Secret Design although I enjoyed it a lot my husband told me that I do not have to work if I wanted to. So I stopped into thinking that I can work from home. It was 2006.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I was not serious about working out of home although I started selling my diy vintage cake stand on Etsy. It was just fun for me. I love choosing, and searching for the right plate to create a cake stand set. But drilling a hole on a plate so the metal rod could go through was not easy at all. Other reason was that it was getting harder and harder to get a pretty vintage plate as well. I sold quite a few then I stopped all together.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Painting a perfume came to me by accident. I remember I was in our home Florida and the thought of painting my bottle of perfume just came into mind. And that was how it all begins. It was a year a go.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Today I enjoy painting using water color a lot. There is something about water color that soothe me. Seeing the water color mixing in together and run to each other is the most enjoyable feeling like none other art medium could do. Although I enjoyed painting with acrylic a lot.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Each day is a new challenge to create one of a kind art. Although many people paint perfume, each of us are different with our own style.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So let's take a look of these arts that I have done so far. Let me warn you that this post is a little lengthy with a lot of images. But I think it worth checking out. And some of these images you might have seen on my last posts before.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I had so much fun sketching and painting during our last trip to Paris that now I am sharing my tools and how to pack the water color materials to carry a long on a trip.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">First you want the materials as small as possible. So let's take a look at below image of water color materials the last time I took on my trip to Paris.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">1. A small paint palette. This is important as this one material you need to mix in the paint.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">2. A flat water color pan. I love using water color pan rather the one in a tube. I found that a tube will dry faster and no longer can be used.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">3. Mechanical pencil and it's refill</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">4. Various sizes of water color brushes</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">4. Good eraser. Choose good eraser because some of them leaves smudges on the paper after being used.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">5. Small sketch pad - mine is 6 in by 9 in.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">6. Brushes and pencil case</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">7. Last a fairly large bag to put them all. Mine is a shoes bag given free from the airline.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">8. Ideally you will need to bring 2 empty containers for the water but I did not bother to carry these with me as I figured I can use a cup of glasses from the hotel. Which was what I did.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">These water color materials will stay flat in the suit case and place them in the bottom of the suitcase underneath clothes so the paper will not get damaged.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcXme9b2LaYSu6EH6eDh9zxPaoYlvYA1TZWlv7ApFE6y_fC6j83-mirNA0axHTsIN8HFG2gfb9ktbUJyYgWG-jk618k22bdQUM_SXrWJRFUr0jA5iM2Y0_xEF4mTW_sZDMq8UT0YUJoua3/s1600/Untitled-3+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcXme9b2LaYSu6EH6eDh9zxPaoYlvYA1TZWlv7ApFE6y_fC6j83-mirNA0axHTsIN8HFG2gfb9ktbUJyYgWG-jk618k22bdQUM_SXrWJRFUr0jA5iM2Y0_xEF4mTW_sZDMq8UT0YUJoua3/s640/Untitled-3+copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Upon arrival unpack and place your water color bag within reach and where you can see it all the time. Otherwise with all the excitements coming you will forget all about it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">During the first day upon arrival, explore the hotel and the surrounding area. This is the time when you will see a quiet place where you can sketch. It can be in a quiet lobby hotel, in the garden, in a quiet brasserie near by or a garden nearby outside the hotel.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Do not shy to paint with people around you. Usually they won't bother you and won't even come to you to ask what you are doing. And do not hesitate to ask a cup of water from the hotel staff. Or you can use an empty bottle water and cut the neck and fill it with water.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Use your imagination to paint as a subject. It can be a flower in the hotel garden or public garden. Or buy yourself a bouquet of flower from the nearest flower shop like I did. It always makes your hotel room pretty anyways! And do not hesitate to carry the flowers a long with you to the spot where you are going to paint. I brought my flowers around the hotel area to create a photo shoot and a video (here). No one care about it - they looked but usually they just kept on walking a way.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Find the time to do this is the hardest part - because you are on a trip. And you are in your destination to explore the city for sight seeings. So it is up to you how you squeeze your time to do it. For me, I usually get up early morning before we started to go out exploring. And when we came back in the afternoon since the day is longer during summer I still have time to paint and to photograph during late afternoon. And the light during that afternoon is the best light to paint and to do a photography because the sun light is soft.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">You can use anything for your subject. And you can also paint in the hotel room. "A window hotel room' is always pretty to paint. "The flower you bought in a cup sitting on the table', "your cosmetics', "your pretty high heel shoes". If outside, you can paint "fruits", "a window", "your pocket book sitting on the chair", "the street", "the building" or "part of the building like door", etc. Do not try to analyze the subject too much. You do not have a lot of time to do this perfectly anyway. So just do a sketching. It is okay if it is not perfect.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Last do not forget to sign, put the date and place where you painted it. Later on it will be nice to see it back with the date and place where you painted the arts.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Keep your book especially to do this so next time when you go on a trip to other places, bring a long this book and paint again.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I painted these peonies in our hotel room sitting by the window. I love painting flowers but what I really like about this is the window wrought iron railing. This painting was a quick sketch and it has not finished but I like it when it is spontaneous like that. The art "love" I painted at home a long time a go. One thing is that I forget to put the date which is not too late to do so since I still remember when I painted this.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The next day I painted the apricot and strawberry breakfast fruits from the breakfast buffet. I was going to do the bananas but I have not gotten the time anymore.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This sketch painted in the garden while looking straight at the door and and the window above it. It is the hotel door that leads to the garden where I was sitting and painted this.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The two roses sketches below I did it just yesterday at home. This was a quick sketch. The one on the left was the first and the one on the right I painted it after. I like to repeat the same object to loosen my hand and to see how to manipulate the water. It is a practice. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This is the final roses painting. Although it is far from perfect I started to find the right technique to do it. From there I can add other technique to it. Well, this has nothing to do with the traveling water color subject but I thought I add them on here for you as well.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">So I do hope you will bring your sketch pad water color materials and paint during your trip. It is a fun and beautiful way to practice but it is also wonderful to look back when your traveling sketch pad filled with beautiful of your sketches from the trips you went.</span></div>
