End of Summer Art Reflection

Pin It

Summer is almost over and I'm very happy that it was a busy time and exciting as well.   Lots of traveling, new artworks, nice relaxing weekend trips, and great community support from my fellow teammates. 
Thank you for the following bloggers, google+ friends, and especially Jessica from Creative Index for featuring me and publishing my interview in your blog! Your blog is amazing!

"In the right hands, a flower will always feel fresh. With my art I see inspiration in the flower, especially the elegant peonies. I strive to interpret nature and make it my own. Best of all, these will keep their bloom all year round."





"I don't sketch what I'm going to do when I begin an abstract piece. My art just flows from me, to my brush, and then to my painting.  What I leave out is just as important as what I put in."


More about my creative process, vision and plans read in my recent interview with Jessica from Creative Index  here

LOOKING FORWARD TO A BRILLIANT FALL AND THE LAUNCH OF MY NEW WEBSITE IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.

Discover Your London Style

I think London has so many eclectic trends...so it is hard to really pick the most recognizable. I know it sounds weird to name a few like red phone booths, best taxi cabs (seriously London's cab drivers are the best), or Big Ben. But it took me awhile to really fill the spirit and sense of the very touristy bustling city. I had some memorable inspirations I would like to share with you here.

You can buy anything at London's famous department store, from a teddy bear to a pair of diamond-encrusted high heels. Which I'm  prefer :) I love mixture and eclectic fashion style of London.





I had the pleasure of walked many of the London bridges this summer. From the moment I stepped on Tower bridge,  I knew I would capture it in a painting.

Enjoy the London inspired collection at my shop: LanasArt on Etsy posted this week!
