Cozumel Mini Flip Through
Peacocks in Cozumel
Hello Hello! I finally got my mini-album done for my Cozumel, Mexico trip! It’s been several months since the trip but I am so easily distracted in my art life….first I got a Gelli Plate, then I found some awesome heavy-weight watercolor paper at a thrift shop, then I started experimenting with video….you get the picture–easily distracted.
I am sharing the picture above of some peacocks because it is one of the pics in the finished album and because I was fascinated with them while on vacation. Once I discovered the peacocks on the grounds of the hotel I pretty much went and saw them every day. Oh yeah–mini album–right!
I did a short video flip-through on the album. Thanks for looking!

Art Definitions
Merriam-Webster.com defines art as: A visual object or experience consciously created through an expression of skill or imagination. That is a pretty all-encompassing definition that suits me perfectly. I believe Art is where YOU see it.
I see Art in scrapbooking:
Doorway in Turkey 2010
I see Art in cooking and pretty food:
A day’s harvest from my garden
A simple lunch at the office
I see Art in architecture:
Messina, Sicily 2010
I see Art in sculpture
Athens, Greece 2010
I especially see Art in nature and I am inspired by it every day.
Birds of Paradise, Naples, Italy
A bitty bloom
A profusion of pretty
No matter where you are there is beauty to be found all around us. I wish you a beautiful day.

Somerset Place Entry
Photo by Andrea C. Jenkins featured in Life Images 2008
This morning I saw this contest on the Somerset blog (http://stampington.com/blog/index.php/2013/06/06/short-story-challenge-try-your-hand-to-win/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Stampington+%28Stampington+%26+Company+Blog%29). I wrote this short poem a few months ago and ran across it two nights ago. When I saw the photo above I thought my words seemed appropriate.
Fear not to Fly,
Make the Journey,
Be Spectacular,
In Your Courage.
