It's small, but I know every plant! I love how the colours and texturs change. <br /><br />Central London, where I travel for my Day Job. Wondeful for peopel watching, window shopping in Oxford Street, and architectural details. <br /><br />Any museum or art gallery anywhere, the quirkier the better. <br /><br />A stream. <br /><br />A field. <br /><br />The supermarket. <br /><br />Pound shops (stores where everything costs £1). <br /><br />Eavesdropping on the bus or in a cafe.<br /><br />Being back home in Australia, everything looks new and fresh after six months or a year away.Autumn Macarthurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15376992769171145754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013784558894702292.post-21112830228300557292012-03-04T23:24:25.787-08:002012-03-04T23:24:25.787-08:00Based on these examples I think I can define my so...Based on these examples I think I can define my sources as the following: I spend a lot of time at home as I live in a very isolated community which im not comfortable walking around in on my own so I look for inspiration from my window or in the home (until the weekend comes along and I can get away with my hubby). Things like the sky and macro photography are reliable sources. I wouldn't say they were my favourite but they produce ideas. Cosmetics and fabrics inspire me greatly even though I'm not really into fashion or glamour. Flowers inspire me. As do fragrances from wines, teas and perfumes. I also like visiting heritage homes and sites. I could spend all day in a social history museum. I also love antiques and skips- that's the property developer in me I think. I don't really find people interesting, I find the stuff they have around them, which they believe defines them, interesting. This is a very intriguing observation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
