Mind On France :: Photography so French you'll want to jump into the scene

Beautiful. Last night I received a lovely email from Leslee Carsewell. She had just found my website (not sure which of my sites she was referring to but ok..) and wrote to me to introduce herself and provide some tips on upcoming exhibits she thought might be of interest to me. She explained that she is a "recovering graphic designer" (which made me smile) and that she has now delved into fine art photography. She invited me to visit her website, perhaps make a comment here or there if I so desired and she asked nothing more. The fact that she asked for nothing more and the fact that her photography is absolutely gorgeous prompted me to write a post today inviting all of you ArtLOOK readers to visit Leslee's site Mind On France.

Dscn24381Now, being in love with most things French I must say some of Carsewell's photos are so "French" they made me want to jump into the photo to experience the scene for myself. Regardless if you love France or not, her photos are worth a look. Lovely scenes of farmlands, eggs and strawberries and veggies at market, doors (how I do love a good door photo) water scenes and little vignettes. You can purchase an 8x10 or 11x14 photo and she also offers giclee prints.

Having said this I'd like to put a little note here to those of you who have asked me about blogging and how to market yourself and introduce yourself on the blogosphere. Leslee did it the right way. She wrote a lovely email, just making friends, she had something to say, something to offer and she has an excellent site. There ya go...she got my attention. Thanks Leslee!

Lisa,

Thank you very very much for your lovely comments and for understanding the passion
that lies behind the photos. I am so glad
that the visuals truly convey what I feel
when I am making these photos. Watch my
site as I am adding another 30 or so images
in the next few weeks! Again, thank you.

  • David Black regarding an INK feature arts article:
    "I was just handed the most incredible magazine article that I think has ever been written about me. It is just fantastic and people are presenting me with copies of the magazine. Really beautifully written, really beautifully written and no one has ever put all the pieces together as nicely as you have. Thank you so much."
  • Re: Article on Slater Museum
    "Ok, Don't stand in a doorway when you read this as you may become hopelessly lodged... Hang on to your head, an ego boost attached... I love it Lisa. Spot on nicely done, access-able, significant and of a standard. I'm stoked, can't thank you enough, very happy and impressed." Jeff Lilly - INK Publishing

    "I am glad you are a perfectionist- You have given us a world-class site that will be an asset to The Guide as we move forward and expand." Matt Holmes, The Art Guide
  • Artist Julia Rogoff
    "I found Lisa Mikulski to be just the right resource at the right time: focused, professional, with a great eye for color and design, and with very fast turnaround time for getting images up on the web -- an artist's best friend and there when you need her! She's got a really good command of the two worlds we as artists now inhabit: the technical issues of cyberspace in today's market, combined with bottom line issues of artistic judgement. I highly recommend her as a great resource for web design, artistic and gallery management."
