Ikebana and Objets d'art in Japan (Featured on May 29, 2007)

Gabriela: This is a very exciting and artistic album that I've enjoyed viewing. Your exhibits are outstanding and have definitely stimulated my imagination! WS: take notice and feature this very creative album!

said opera166 2007.02.16 at 14:45:36 PST

Exquisite album Gabriela. Your choice of backgrounds is amazing and a perfect marriage with the subjects. I share your admiration for this Ikebana artist as from today. I am also quite curious about the wood pieces on which the stones stand. Who carves them and on what type of wood? WS: time to notice creative and artistic albums as a standing feature.

said mariaelena136 2007.02.17 at 03:51:23 PST

Dear Gabriela, a wonderful album, very artistic. Beautiful flower arrangements, interesting " Objets d'art ", all put on suggestive backgrounds. You succeeded in bringing us delight and stimulating the imagination. Thanks for this delicate beauty, toate cele bune, Andrei.

said theskywalker69 2007.02.17 at 04:56:57 PST

Dear Gabriela, this album shows your great sense of beauty and beauty exists everywhere even in little things; The genious Ikebana Master compositions are magnified by yours and the collection of stones 'objets d'art' simply amazed my eyes and it has been fun to find what they could represent!Thank You to present us all these treasured things so symbolic of Japan! Yes a feature is merited for all these efforts, Jacques

said pfjc 2007.02.17 at 08:56:37 PST

The Ikebana might be by a master but Gabriela you are the master of presentation in the album. Great selection of artistic subjects, love those stones you can think about them all day long. Eric

Dear Gabriela Another wonderful album full of creativty and imagination...Sandra

said sandrajacktrips 2007.02.19 at 03:09:16 PST

Dear Gabriela, This is a wonderful album your compositions artistically put together I wish I had the imagination to do that. Your objet'art pieces really did get my imagination working as I tried to work out what I could see, great fun. Gabriela I can't thank you enough for your visit to my Winter woodland today and all your wonderful warm comments. I must have taken hundreds of this kind of picture in the past but this year I aim to improve on all aspects of taking pictures and I really was working hard to get expoesure etc just right. For you to recognise that with all your expertise means so much I can tell you, means I must be doing something right LOL Take care now and thanks once again. Love, Jill

said jillbatchelor2 2007.02.19 at 07:18:27 PST

Dear Gabriela, what a beautiful display in your "Ikebana and Objets d'art in Japan" album. You have created such lovely images by merging the Ikebana and various background images. Each could be a wallpaper image and studying each of them individually would be very uplifting. ... Thank you for all of your comments in my newest albums. I've changed several of the titles as a result, i.e. The Water Lettuce - thank you for the ID. As for the photo of the various size boats, that is a cruise ship at the dock, and after so many photos of the Pelicans, I wanted to look one right in the eye, hence his long beak did have to be cut short. They are funny birds, but not always kind according to the local fishermen. ... Take care my friend, Judy
