Artist/Andres Amador

I came across this article and had to share

During low tide on the beaches of Northern California, you’ll find artist Andres Amador in the midst of creating his very own natural masterpiece.

Using only a rake, this San Francisco-based artist creates a mixture of intricate and simple shapes and patterns in the sand. Reminiscent of crop circles, simple lines are transformed into colossal artworks, some of which can span over 100 000 feet in length, truly an amazing talent, enjoy.

My quote for the day

Ibiza style house

This incredible home overlooking the Mediterranean Sea was designed by Malales Martínez Canut of Malmaca Studio.

The interior is an eclectic mix of modern, retro and Ibiza style.  I like the simplicity of the overall design and the use textures in the furniture, using leather, wood and metal, with some baskets, wooden artefacts, fabrics and rugs thrown in and a dash of colour here and there and the linking from exterior to interior by using colour this house has an overall feeling of being sophisticated, chilled and functional, love.

My quote for the day

Blue Décor

Blue Décor

Various shades of blue used in interiors.

Blue lifts the spirits is calming and practically good for bedrooms as it is restful using blue for a bathroom represents the sea and is refreshing.  Blue is from the cool side of the spectrum yet it is not cold, however using the wrong shade of blue in the wrong conditions of light can be out of balance, always with any colour light must be considered. Blues vary from almost a violet to powder blue. 

These images show a range of styles which work with this gorgeous colour, from bright blues, blue greys, purple blues, blue greens, navy blues, muted blues.

Next time we will take a look at the classic blue & white combos.

Lazy days

Lazy days, don't you just love those days when you can stay in bed till noon, have brunch out, or in bed, catch up on some reading, the weeks TV, take ‘Wendy’ walks, catch up with friends for lunch, make those long telephone calls to friends and family, pick up a paint brush and be creative, bake something naughty,whatever you are doing, hope it is a good day.
