Satoshi KAMIYA's origami

No stranger to paper crafts and all its incredible forms, tinkalicious brings another outstanding show of workmanship just with paper! These amazing Origami crafts were created by Satoshi KAMIYA, and if the art itself were not enough, they were made of just one piece of paper!!!

He draws the design diagram first, and folds accordingly. Even each scale of the dragon was folded one by one.

Pretty remarkable and extremely delicate workmanship!

Happy Thanksgiving!

While it really isn't a typical holiday celebration for Brits to indulge in, the whole essence of a celebration to really consider what we are thankful for, is an international cause for a delicious and bountiful meal to be enjoyed by all! If these images above don't quite manage to nspire you to make your table and day as festive as possible, go here! to see some more fab designs! Either way, hope you have a great day and enjoy that tryptophan induced snooze!!!!! and see you soon!

Urban Sketchers

Well, hello y'all! I know, I know, it's been a (pretty long) while, but you have been uppermost in my mind even in my (prolonged absence) and while I have been undertaking a huge variety of very part time (slightly paying) work, it leaves little time to post what I love the most. In addition to "letting the dogs out", and wedding photography (some of the better photos to come soon!), I generally don't have access to a (fast enough) web connection, so given a little break for the holiday, I hope to share all the things I have been saving!

One of the more inspiring sites that makes me dash to my desk, grab my pencils, paints and papers is Urban Sketchers! The works above are just a snippet of the variety and fantastic stuff to be found if you time to pay them a visit! Enjoy!

Riverhouse Niagara ZERAFA-STUDIO 3

This 4,000 square foot modern home is adjacent to the Niagara river, within range of the famous Niagara Falls. Its limestone, Brazilian teak and silver metal exterior holds a quiet, comfortable and charming contemporary interior. The night lighting of this home's exterior truly brings out its allure, an architectural gem on the border of New York and Canada.
