Here's a little bit about Lucy:



Hello, my name is Luciane Folch, I am 38 years old. I am Brazilian happy girl.
First of all I´m thrilled to be part of this challenge,since watercolor is my absolutely favorite technique of all!
The challenge had fit me as a glove.LOL

I found out about scrapbooking by chance, in 2003, when I first moved to Sweden and needed to find something to keep me sane and to adapt to a new country, but I only started to take it seriously when I went back to Brazil, in 2005.
Scrapbooking is my outlet. It isn't just a way of expressing my emotions on paper, it is also the most pleasurable way of expressing my art and my colorful vision of the World. I don't like to scrapbook my sad side, my scrapbooks are always joyful and carry a positive and fun message.
I am very eclectic, I have experimented with every style possible in order to find what I really like. I like experimenting with materials, I like to make my own papers and embellishments, but if I had to put a label on it, I would be a carefree freestyler.


I design for
Scrap in style tv - US
Scrapdiary-Brazil
Angie de la Rie - Austrália

Birds of a FEATHER, (let's) flock together...

Hey lady loves!

Its aw here bringing your bi-monthly installment of The Art Is Found...
For this prompt its all about FEATHERS.

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.
And sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all.


Emily Dickinson.


TAIF peeps allow me to introduce you to Emily...she is sure to inspire...and here is what she had to say:

My name is Emily O., and I’m from Ohio.

I love all things art and music. I love painting, sewing, graphic arts, interior design, (I have a degree in that) and sketching/rendering.

I’m obsessed with piano music (that’s what I play!) and anything with tinkling xylophones or sweeping strings. I adore Sigur Rós, Ingrid Michaelson and Copeland.


I wear berets and dresses at least three times a week, apply my eyeliner with a little wing, and have a weakness for gigantic, dangly earrings and anything with owls.

My big love nowadays is photography. Mainly digital, but I love film, and Polaroids.


I’ve been blessed with tons of people who enjoy my work, and as a result, have started a part-time business of my own. I mainly have been shooting weddings, but I do most types of portraits, and also have been able to photograph some talented musician friends.


When given the prompt “Feathers” for this challenge, I was thrilled.


Feathers have been a little obsession of mine lately. I chose to do a little photo series using my sisters as models. (We do this a lot, I style them, and then we go on whimsical photographic adventures.)

I hope you all enjoy, and thank you so much for having me!

Here is the fabulous featherness that Em brought.
