Getting inspired in Tokyo

We are in Tokyo! It just happened that my husband was sent to work here for a week and he took me with him. He spends his days working in the office, poor thing, and I get to roam the streets and parks of Tokyo and getting inspired. It is "work" of another kind after all, if you are an artist and maker...














I hope you enjoyed these few pictures from Japan.

  1. I love these photographs. They are decorative but also calming, which is interesting.
    Maybe it is the way you have framed the shots that makes them calming. I don't know. I am more a word person than a visual person. And it took me a while to work out what the top picture was. Was it a painting, a mural or a picture from nature - beautiful.

  2. Hi Chloe.
    The top picture is a close-up view of the lake in the park, with a tree branch hanging over the surface of the water. I was drawn to the colours there and I will probably use this colour combination for a painting.
    I guess in photography I often zoom-in and show the details. Maybe looking at the details helps me to understand the world...

    I wish I was better at using the words though.
