Hello!

Hi, first time actually doing this by myself so here goes trying. My name is Shanice, I enjoy simplicity and beautiful things. So, that's what this blog is about. Simplistic beauty through my eyes. Maybe something here will catch your eye as well.

Thanks!

Parking lot charm

These tire tracks are examples of what I take for granted. The tracks belong to a tractor, which cleans off smaller areas and to a truck which takes off the bulk of snow piled up in my school parking lot. I praise you here for your amazing work tractor/truck workers. Thank you for your service.

Spontaneous beauty

This photo I took on instant for it's obvious charm. Who doesn't love a good ol fashioned sunset between the tree's. Warms my heart with a blanket, hot cocoa, and a good book.

Nature in its finest form.

So here is some natural beauty in TRF. We have icicles off of a building and piles of wood stored away for a family in town. The snow coating the limber is the real nature I was going for in the wood pile photo. I love the texture and colors of each depiction of winter.


My artwork

So this is a painting by my own hand. It seems I only paint or sketch when I am emotional, thus I believe the results to that mirror my feelings at the time of their creation. Can you tell what i was feeling in this?

Artwork

I love artwork, especially the unique and interesting. This painting speaks to my creative mind and to my heart. To me, it shows a love that can never be.

Acts of Beauty

Here we have a child chilling in the Lazy River of my local water park. This place makes everyone happy and, in many cases, this is where all the family and friends come together and just have some good old fashioned fun. You can tell we really love gold and blue In TRF.
This photo of the Prowler hockey team and it's supporters, taken by Tim Kolehmainen, really unites everyone. Just so beautiful to me.
