Though I have lots on my to do list, I needed some creative time so for the past few days I’ve been playing in my new theater while Koen sleeps. I felt that my little train needed a last stop on its journey, so yesterday I set it up in my theater. I took several shots. I really like the brownish one and think I’ll  put it in Koen’s room eventually.
Did you know we are entering the year of the water dragon? This inspired me to create this imaginary dragon friend at Mirror Lake (up near Algonquin Park, Ontario). I wanted a mirror effect for the lake so instead of the usual papers I use for water, I tried.. yes, a mirror! Hope you like it and the other images that appeared here in my mini Mirror Lake.

love all the new images! the reflections you got with the mirror are just perfect!
Aw… thanks so much Anika!
As usual, your work is gorgeous and so very different from anything else out there.
I’d love to see some process shots sometime that show what your theaters look like and how the different layers are set up. I know with a new baby, time for this will be thin, but I hope at some point you will both have the time and the inclination to teach us a bit more about your process. I am simply in awe of what you make.
I truly love the mirror effect with the dragon and the little girl in the lake. So beautiful! I’m always so impressed with your unique and incredibly aesthetic images. Brava!
as always your work is stunning… I wish I knew you personally-I sense you are a very restful and restorative soul. Enjoy those babies and the new theater.
Thank you so much for your thoughts… yes, I’ll try taking more process shots. Hope you are all starting the year off doing what you love. xo
So brilliant! I can’t wait to visit your shop and see your new photo illustrations! And yes, I would LOVE to see the process.
I really like the dragon and girl with mirror reflection, makes me think of Puff the Magic Dragon and a lovely dream. All your images are beautiful.
Your work is evocative–unique–WONDER-FULL. Thank you.
Very cool!
I think it’s amazing that you are able to produce so much, so quickly! Definitely an inspiration.
And one day, my little Liam will enjoy one of your train prints as well.
