"These are a few of my favourite things ..."

Studying Law can be suffocating! So when after spending 3 hours reading textbooks covered in dust, and 200-page cases dating back to 19-th century England, a little "me" time is definitely required! The two following blogs are ones I love to lose myself in (though it may unfortunately only be for a minute or two). Being a keen painter and lover of Art, I find beauty in many things.

I adore the Blog, Absolutely Beautiful Things, created by Brisbane-based Interior Designer Anna Spiro because of the wonderfully artisitc photographs she posts. The colours she uses are vibrant and fresh and the designs she creates are masterpieces in themselves.

The Blog, created by Sarah-Jane Clarke and Heidi Middleton is also a favourite of mine. Abundant in photographs of beautiful fabrics and clothing from all around the world, this Blog is quite simply just lovely to look at. Art does not have to be restricted to just paintings and sculptures in Art Galleries, it can be found in objects, as trivial to some, such as clothing. The Gallery of Modern Art as well as the Queensland Art Gallery (both located in Brisbane) are evidently of the same thinking as I, having recently exhibited the work of designers such as Valentino and Easton and Peaston.

For those, who like me, can find beauty in almost anything, check out the website Mundane Beauty. If we just look hard enough, we can find beauty in something as mundane and simple as the stains left on our newspaper by our morning coffee or the wrinkles on our grandmothers' hands.
