What Photo Art is

I recently took a test from the University of Pennsylvania’s Authentic Happiness website, the VIA Signature Strength Questionnaire, which measures 24 character strengths. My top character strength reads as follows: "Appearance of Beauty and Excellence. You notice and appreciate beauty, excellence, and/or skilled performance in all domains of life, from nature to art to mathematics to everyday experience." (See Authentic website at http://www.authentichappiness.sas.upenn.edu/Default.aspx.) This actually explains me in a very concise way and helps me understand my drive to have beauty in all aspects of my life. That's why I call my photography "Photo Art". I make bookmarks, prints and cards. To me photography and nature thrills and delights me, and I hope it does you as well.

I love walking all around my house and seeing the freshness of my photography. I just want to share it with everyone. I'm increasing my art to scrapbooking paper and collage backgrounds using my photography. See my site at InsideRedesigns.esty.com for a few more samples.
