Can't Stop, Won't Stop

Looking through the camera roll on my phone, I realized that pretty much all the pictures I've taken in the past week are related to the change in seasons and its amazing colors. (And let's be honest, about 99% of the pictures are of trees, oops! These pumpkins spotted at Whole Foods being one of the few exceptions). Sorry I'm not sorry ;)

Chasing the Sun

Watching an incredible sunset is one of my favorite things to do in life. It always lifts my mood, takes my breath away, and leaves me feeling inspired. I could tell this was going to be a good one, so I ran down the hill from my house to get the best view possible. 

Autumn Colors

My favorite thing about fall is watching the leaves change colors. There's nothing quite like the bright reds, oranges, and yellows against a brilliant blue sky!

Fall Cleaning

In the process of painting, cleaning, and re-organizing my little studio space. Sometimes a little refreshing of a space is exactly what I need to get inspired and excited to work. I can't wait to get those brushes dirty and that palette covered in paint.

Looking Back

I've been sorting through all of my folders, papers, flashcards, and sketchbooks from college (and high school). Coming across portfolio reviews (like above) makes me realize how much I miss being in school and being a part of an art community. I think it's about time to put myself and my work back into the world.

Early Autumn Light

One of the most significant ways I can sense the change in seasons is the position of the sun in the sky. The light is so much lower, falling lazily across the sky instead of glaring down from above. As sad as I am that summer is officially over, the way the sunlight illuminates these leaves is absolutely breathtaking. 

Daily Inspiration

Trying to get back into posting more regularly and why not start with something that's tried and true? I'm in love with this awning and its incredible lines. I love the mirrored pattern created by the shadows. The color of this building reminds me of the Getty Center in LA (and how much I'd like to take another trip there)!
