I have been learning unique ways to find self portraits in reflective places. This photo was taken in P. Allen Smith's art studio in his Garden Home near Little Rock, Arkansas. The leaves are dried and real - very beautiful wall hangings in a small, personal space for Allen. I love the dried leaves that are already art and how they seem to contrast with my blue eyes in the reflection.

And yes - I'm addicted - this is fun! Art is great fun. Photography is tremendous fun. I love creating things and inspiring others to create.

When we create art it is an extension of that passion we all feel inside our hearts. Like sunshine and joy embodied.
