I'd love to change things up a bit and dedicate this week to: Love. Rather than just a day, why not a week of unconditional love? To start things off right, I thought, this wedding video was perfect, from the location to the actual ceremony in the rain with the couples loved ones all around, it's beautiful.

As snow blankets Northern Italy, my mind can't help but wander to another enchanted location. I wouldn't mind spending a day in Mont St. Michel, surrounded by low tides and connected to the mainland via a small land bridge. This place sounds just as enchanting as it looks. Amazing, isn't it? Have you ever been there?

One of the things I love most about a cafe is energy and the never ending moments of inspiration. Everything from the sounds of the expresso machine, to enjoying a cup of coffee or tea.
  Underrated in charm and quality, cafes serve as the perfect place to brainstorm new ideas, meet a friend for croissants and coffee, reading the paper or a novel.

Bold, beautiful, and ironic. Iranian artist Farhad Moshiri installation, "Life is Beautiful" features hundreds of knives stabbing the wall at the Pinault Foundation's Palazzo Grassi. Moshiri evokes a sense of the Dada tradition using found objects and creating art out of the most unlikely object, knives. This is a brilliant conceptual piece of work. See more by Moshiri here.

I hope your holiday was absolutely superb and that you enjoyed it to the fullest.
Between winding down from the holidays and gearing up for New Years, here is a beautifully captured short film about the owner of the oldest piano shop in Paris. It's nice to see someone so passionate about what they do, it is something of an art in itself.

The best time of the year is upon us. The smell of pine-trees, and fresh baked cookies, the squeal of opening gifts, the sound of humming along to Christmas carols. I wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays lovelies. Have a lovely time with family and friends.

"Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place."

Happy Monday! 
Good Morning from Italia! Here are a few photos of sculptures I took from my recent trip to Florence. Some of these statues were my favorite. Such as, the third photo below, the intensity captured in the sculpture is incredible. This particular statue is called Hercules and the Centaur, 1549, marble. The first, the third, and the fourth photos were taken in the Loggia della </atom:summary><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ArtisticOdyssey/~3/LU4oUePUOMc/statues-in-florence.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (LeeLee)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-L0u2aIM3KqA/Tu5zwkCLCoI/AAAAAAAAAfg/dxiRFoAqwJk/s72-c/IMG_6347.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>7</thr:total><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6BGr4QPF323d53lb7BLV9J7y71o/0/da"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6BGr4QPF323d53lb7BLV9J7y71o/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
