I am so grateful to call this studio mine. For years I worked out of a home office in all the places I’ve lived and once we had a child I felt it was time to have a space of my own. Now I am able to grow my business in more ways than I ever could and I can work in peace. It truly is my escape. It took a long time for me to get here but I did it. Never give up on your goals and dreams. NEVER. When you are passionate about something, as I am about art and design, put all of yourself into it and work hard at achieving the success you hope for. Design has and always will be the one thing that keeps me moving. The one thing that makes me feel alive. I am wholeheartedly thankful I found a home through creative expression. It’s an amazing feeling to know you are doing what you were born to do.

Inception is one of those films you will remember forever. Not only do you feel you need to watch it a few times, you actually want to. A genius script, written and directed by Christopher Nolan, tells the in depth story of how the mind can do amazing things. The act of inception, in this case, is to implant an idea in someone’s mind but to do it in such a way that they will never know how it got there and actually feel like they thought of it themselves. A brilliant idea for a film I must say.

The cast was amazing and the effects the film explored were truly mesmerizing. The color palette was somewhat somber and city like. Dark earthy hues such as brown and gray teamed up with a scale of blues, beige, and whites for an all around smart and sharp color scheme. Anything but would not have worked. Bright and saturated choices just wouldn’t have made the proper contribution.

This film had me thrilled and entertained all the way through. Not to mention, giving my brain a workout. Superb production in my eyes. Definitely, one of the best films I had seen in a long time.
