Foam

Here is another cute video that makes me happy.

Yes, it is a commercial, & it is for a camera, but since I'm a photography advocate & the advertisement part isn't until the very end, I think I'll let it slide. I hope you enjoy this.

She Likes Colours Too

I am slowly gathering together a nice group of links to artist's websites/blogs, which is pretty fun. I enjoy seeing the work of people who are not involved with large museums (think LACMA), hardcore auctions (think Christie's), or super intense galleries (no example comes to mind for this one). I really like viewing the art made by people who are starting out, or have settled into a nice comfortable career, or are working on getting where they want to be, or are just having fun being artists in addition to whatever they're doing for actual moneys. So, with that introduction, let's look at the blog & website of a photographer that I stumbled across in the course of the past week.

Colormekatie is the website of freelance photographer Katie, which showcases her very colourful, upbeat artistic work, guaranteed to make you smile at least a wee bit (of course, it makes me smile enormously). Her blog, by the same name, reflects her photographs in being just as perky, happy, & colourful. I think what I found most charming, however, was how sweet & genuine she is.
