La Porte Rouge

Now how talented can a single person be?

There are artists whose work you look at and say “I recognize this person.”
I love the deliciously poetic world Nadia, a.k.a. One Silent Winter lives in. Her pictures which you can also find on her blog La Porte Rouge have such an eerie, nearly magical feel to them that I almost expect a unicorn or a fairy to appear. Her sensibility is unique and new, but the most surprising is that she is somehow capable of reinventing colors. Tell me of I’m making this up. Have you ever seen pinks look like this:

and reds or blues look like this:

(I would give a limb for this necklace by the way.)

She can also make yellows and greens look like this:

And blacks, look like this:

I am baffled. How does she do it?

But it's not just about the colors of course. Its about Nadia's eye, her vision, how each picture is its own small world, a more hopeful, happier world.

i was just looking on pinterest and found a link to your blog. what caught my eye was the necklace that you featured on this posting. it looked so very familiar to me. i know nadia and supplied her store years ago {french dressing} with some of my jewelry. imagine my surprise to see one of my babies in your blog under nadia's photographic eye.
thanks for saying you would give a limb for it.
best to you, wendy baker of wendybakerdesign.com
