Samoan inspiration

There was so much about Samoa to like. The warmth, the people, the colours, the landscape, the fish, the art. It is a very special place to visit. I am still processing some of the images, and ideas, and thought that these few photos are the start of that process. The patterning on the fabrics and vibrant colours, keep coming into my mind (Adriana you'd love it!). Enjoy. I'll put more on my Facebook page!

Check out my ceramics buddies on Mud Colony this week!

thanks for sharing the wonderful images from Samoa. Took me back to our years in Papua New Guinea :^)

Beautiful photos Ellen! I'm especially drawn to the colours! On another note, your banner photo is spectacular. I love how you're set it on the beach!

Thanks for the comments and feedback - I love the worn boards too, this photo was taken by my partner, he says it's one of his "art" shots (he's my arts benefactor!!).
