A Secret!

Jennifer Michie Nyhaven 2014

Well, I have a secret to share. We celebrated 10 glorious years of marriage last week in the breathtaking city of Copenhagen. Mr. Michie and I decided to have a true break and stepped away from our computers. I normally write on the spur of the moment, but last week I planned two posts to go out and we quietly slipped away to Denmark.

It was a welcome little mini-moon and I didn’t want to come back! I have so much to share with you and I don’t want to bore you to death, so I am going to attempt to summarize our trip over 2 posts. The above picture was from the dreamy Nyhaven section of Copenhagen where Hans Christian Andersen used to live!

Stay tuned, there’s more to come…

The First Day Back

Jennifer Michie Still Life 2014

The first day back to school after a break is always the longest. It has been a very busy day with lots of exam prep! The theme for the first exam is “Tools”. So I put together a different still life in each studio. Above is a close-up of one of them. I was so happy to find that blue and white stripped ribbon, it fit perfectly into the nozzle of that vintage watering can and swirled very gracefully around the other objects.

I’m pooped, but nothing that a slice of pie can’t cure! Happy Monday!
