Butterflies

For this piece I start out doing a photoshop tutorial for fun. I thought it turned out well, so I wanted to add to it. With the butterflies on the top layer added a nice pop of color. 

Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park & Aquarium Photography

Last month I went on vacation to Florida. One of the places I went to was Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park. The spring water is warm so the manatees come in from the ocean to warm up during the winter. I was lucky to see two manatees. One was an adult and the other was a baby. The other side of the park was a wildlife walk with native animals, but there was a one hippopotamus.

This manatee was one of the many that was in the hot tub. These manatees were rescued from the wild and are being let back in the wild after they get better.

 

This calf was in shallow water. I believe it's mother was the other manatee that I saw. 

On the wildlife walk there was a reptile house with alligator, snakes, spiders and ect. In the reptile house there was one albino turtle.

The Hippopotamus. There is a story behind the hippopotamus. Around the hot spring there used to be a zoo and when the zoo went out of business the animals were sent to other zoos. But Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park decided to keep the hippo. 

I also went to an aquarium in florida, inside they had a bird room with all kinds of different species of birds.

Friedensreich Hundertwasser Inspired Painting

Before:

About a year ago I started this painting. I was inspired by Friedensreich Hundertwasser. What I like about his work is how everything looks like a collage, but you can see the elements come together. 

After:

To finish this piece I added a few more elements to my design and alternated from warm to cold colors.

"Significance" Hand Photography

Significance By Helen Doogan

Laugh like there is no tomorrow

Forget a world full of sorrow

Embrace a life you have today

Or forever be trapped by yesterday
