I was blown away by this intricate and colorful quilt by castillejacotton. Diane worked on this quilt of Delilah, a bull mastiff/golden retriever cross from a photograph and captured her beautifully! The quilt is meant to be hung as wall art. Diane does custom work as well, so if you'd like a keepsake picture of your favorite pet, visit her shop to see more of her amazing work!
Today's find features an embroidered picture of a dragonfly by SandrasCardShop. I've always thought of dragonflies as magical and ethereal, and Sandra's embroidery conveys just that. Embroidered in silver and black and mounted on silver damask paper, it makes a very pretty picture, ready for framing. Visit SandrasCardShop for more lovely pictures and cards.
This glorious picture of Maligne Canyon, at Jasper National Park Alberta was shot by Larry of ljangphotography. Taking avail of a rare opportunity to actually walk below in the canyon (which isn't possible during summer as the water thunders down as a waterfall), the viewer can see how the water here has frozen in time, up close and personal. The walls of the canyon are 50 feet high and it must be breathtaking to do the walk on the riverbed during winter. It's now on my bucket list! Larry has done a brilliant job of letting you almost experience it yourself!

This vibrant oil on canvas painting is a lovely representation of Canadian nature. It's also very reminiscent of the work done by the Group of Seven. Richard of PrankePaintings is a third generation artist from Montreal. His grandfather and father were artists too and the talent gene has definitely been passed on! This one is my favorite because of the starkness of the birches combined with the vibrant fall colors and turquoise water. The angle that the artist has captured makes you feel like you've stumbled upon a secret pool and it looks inviting enough to take a swim! For more beautiful paintings, please visit PrankePaintings.
