No, I didn’t go to Iceland. My sister and brother-in-law did a few years ago, and I have been hanging on to these photos they took for quite a while. It’s about time I share them.

Every time I look at travel photos, I get the urge to start planning my next vacation. This month I’ve been to Halifax and North Carolina (photos will come soon, I promise), but I’m already eager to get away again!
I currently have two large canvases leaning against my office wall waiting for me to paint. My parents commissioned me. (Can I pretend it’s a real art gig?). While I’m not quite ready to paint them (lack of free time as of late), I am ready to share some of the interesting pieces art I’ve been eyeing lately.

There’s more black than white in most of these pieces, and I love how different they are from one another. The “top secret” piece is so amusing (to me, anyway).
No, I’m not getting a dog. But I do think dalmatians are beautiful, and I love how dalmatian dots inspire art and interior design.

I’m certainly looking forwad to my upcoming beach vacation. Books, sand, beach, ocean, and ice cream…it’s all in my near future! Hoo.Ray.

I spotted a version of the photograph below on One King’s Lane a while back. Although I was too late for the sale, I keep coming back to stare at the image. It’s thrilling, calm, fun, and scary all at the same time. What do you think?
I hope everyone is having a great week. I’ll be sharing photos from NYC as soon as I finish uploading them! I did post a few on Instagram, if you’d like to have a look. I hadn’t been to Grand Central Station in a few years, so I went a little photo crazy in there. Such a gorgeous (and very busy) place!
