Vladimir Kush!

Today I was so excited to finally have tracked down the name of a Russian artist that I have been trying to find for yeeeears.  His name is Vladimir Kush, and I first saw his work while I was living in Maui with YWAM.  Then, Matthew and I stumbled on a gallery that had his work on display in Miami when we were there for our 1 year anniversary.  Obviously, these pictures aren't even going to come close to doing these incredible paintings justice.  They are actually quite large and, when you stand in front of them, you feel like you are being enveloped into this surreal world of vibrant color and imagination.  Love it, love it, LOVE IT. 

'The Family Tree'

'Always Together'

'Butterfly Apple'

Maternity Pics

Matthew and I took a little trip to some parks near our home to take some maternity pictures.  It was about a week ago, so I was at 33 weeks at that time.  Matthew took all of the pictures using a digital SLR Canon he borrowed from some friends of ours.
