Decorative Art: Tango Valentino

I love the color combination on this one. It's a stand out. I was looking into someone's work last time and his paintings were having this kind of appeal. I was thinking, if you have a house which is having some dark elements inside like dark woods, this would be perfect.

Decorative Art: Ornamental Carp III

I like this one. Feels like you're underwater. When I dive, I like making bubbles and opening my eyes to see them. Love those moments when you don't hear the usual noise of the world but just some bubbles underneath. Precious! Wish to do that again.

Decorative Art: I Think Therefore I Am

I think therefore I am. If one's not able to think, this statement won't even exist so must have been thought by someone who does double thinking, first thought and second thought. Hm, lots of thinking here. Did I confuse you there? Anyway, I love to think. Sometimes I think too much. Could be good and also could be bad. Hard to find a balance but I'm trying.

Decorative Art: Celebratory Whim

There are lots to celebrate. First, weather looks really great (chilly but sun is shining). Second, it's not gonna be that busy week than I thought (still busy but not that bad). Lastly, things are working just fine (less stress than how I imagined it to be). Cheers to all that!

Decorative Art: Chilly Morn

Chilly but beautiful. Same with the weather here. Was outside yesterday and enjoyed it immensely though the wind was biting. I'm excited to go out again today, got some important shopping to do and the sun seems to support me with my quest. Lovely weather outside, can't wait.

Decorative Art: Bella Grande Tulips

Another Spring flower. I'll be really on guard for the first bloom. I feel lucky to be living close to the botanical garden. I get to enjoy lots of different flowers without the hassle of tending them :-). I actually like planting flowers but when one lives in the city, one gets limited space. I'll see to it that I'd be having more space in the future.

Decorative Art: Cheyenne

Had to ask hubby what Cheyenne is. He asked, "In what context"? I answered, "Not in a car context". Hehe. Yeah, so Cheyenne is a native American Indian tribe. The guy below looks like a chieftain. I remember at work before someone would always say... Lots of chieftains but no indians.

Decorative Art: South Shore

I love that yellow boat down there. It looks like it's waiting for me. So very enticing! A car person or a boat person? Question just popped up somewhere in my head :-). Hm, hard. Maybe a boat person. The thought of paddling and floating is relaxing. I like it better that feeling the ground while driving.

Decorative Art: Ecole de Cuisine

They must have lots of good food in here. I enjoy food, much more good food :-). I can't understand why I wasn't so much into it before. I might have been really lazy. Eating specially the healthy way is one thing that should be given attention. Eat healthy and everything will follow - that's so true!

Decorative Art: City 369

Hm, another feast of colors print for today. Been to the city lately but it wasn't as colorful as this. I was hoping to have some sunshine while walking through the shopping alleys but nevertheless it was fun. Rain or shine doesn't make a difference when it comes to shopping :-).

Decorative Art: Down at the Oasis II

Where there's water, there are life forms. I haven't seen an oasis but would be really fascinating to be in one. That means have to be in the desert for that and most probably middle of the desert. The only desert I've been to is Las Vegas :-). Lots of oases with big buildings called casinos and hotels :-).

Decorative Art: Spring Song

Today is a really a beautiful day. The sun is shining so brightly and the sky looks blue with some friendly clouds :-). I'm not the only one who's happy here. The birds are twitting like crazy too. They must be happy too. Not yet officially spring but but it looks like winter is gonna be over soon. It's about time.

Decorative Art: Mindless Diversion

I had lots of opportunities to enjoy red sky when I was vacationing in the tropics. I realized how I really missed it. It was beautiful and invigorating! I guess it was always like that but when you grew up with it, you don't see this things anymore. Experiencing the opposite sky color will make me value this one in the future.

Decorative Art: Seek Happiness

Last week, I was posting a similar poster. It says It'll cost nothing to dream and everything not to. Something to ponder about, don't you think. This one caught my attention today. We tend to seek happiness when happiness is actually a choice. At the back of my mind, I kind of know but I've got to be reminded a lot.

Decorative Art: Poppies

Very lovely colors! Spring? Summer? Looks definitely warm. We still don't have the signs here. Outside looks like never ending winter but bearable :-) in fact I was in the city yesterday shopping. I guess cold is bearable when you get to shop something nice :-). Got to enjoy all the lovely spring collections.

Decorative Art: Nothing to Dream

Yeah it's true, it'll cost nothing to dream. I dream a lot and one is to drink that ice-cold lemonade somewhere in the tropics or some place having similar weather, hehe. Everything I drink right now is lukewarm. I'm getting used to it somehow but of course a change is always welcome.

Decorative Art: Doris Holds Out For a Biscuit

This one's from one of my favorite artists, Sam Toft. I love her creations because they tell a story. A story that revolves around Ernest, his wife and their dog. Ernest Hemmingway Mustard lives on the Brighton/Hove border with his dear lady wife Violet and Doris, their rather grumpy, portly, Jack Russell. Read more...

Decorative Art: Neptune's Daughter

It's easy to mix up Greek and Roman mythologies. So okay, Neptune is the Roman god of the sea; he's equivalent to Poseidon for the Greeks. This Neptune guy normally carries a trident so you won't actually miss him in museums. If Zeus carries a thunderbolt, Neptune a trident. The one in the image should be one of Neptune's 4 daughters. Could be Neptunia but a cuter version.

Decorative Art: One Man and His Dog

Man doesn't look happy; maybe that's why he needs that walk with his dog. A walk can clear your head of whatever's troubling you. Hubby doesn't look happy too. He'll be up for a walk later so that'd be okay. Small things can really ruin your day. Camera body was sent to be fixed; it got returned but problem is still there. I guess a walk is really good :-).

Decorative Art: Elegance III

The female shape is beautiful! It's undeniably an art! You've got to agree with me :-). But do you know the secret to keep this shape? Ah it's actually no secret at all. Feed yourself healthy and everything will follow. Dang, I should have learned that a long time ago. It was a hard lesson but glad I have it.
