Silhouette portraits are symbolic of family, celebration and an era of elegance, and simpler times

At first you may find this not much different than most blogs. But if you read on, you will join me on my journey which includes my family, places I visit, and people I meet. I am very grateful to share my art and consider it an honor to give something to people who have never seen how a silhouette is created or even had their silhouette done before. I love hearing the stories of those who may have posed for a silhouette years ago, at their elementary school, fair, or an amusement park. Some have shared, they still have their silhouette framed and hanging on their wall at home or their mom's wall. Others say it's in a scrapbook or put away in a box. What amazes me, is these stories always come from a good place and people cherish them and hold on to them for many years.
Silhouette art is unique and fun.

Skies in Yosemite Valley Fires nearby have the skies dark, gray, smokey and filled with fallen ash. #yosemite #valley #nationalparkservice #nps #redsun #smokey #fires #ash

Several fires burning outside of the valley brought smoke and ash filled the skies. The dark dramatic gray skies and red sun filtered by the smoke made my visit even better. Witnessing nature endure and thrive from the fires made me realize how important it is for our planet to renew itself.

I look forward to my next visit. As much as I enjoyed this smokey trip to the valley, I hope I can see the blue sky and vast clear views that I have  come to appreciate and love.
