people often ask me what inspires me and keeps me living a creative life. it’s finding beauty in the simple, everyday things i pass that others might even deem ugly, like a rundown building near a freeway entrance or an illuminated sign. i see everything around me as a source of energy. and being able to capture those things in photographs, crop them and make them into pieces of art…or use them as the stimulus for a works of another medium…that is the icing on the cake. and i thank the universe everyday that i can see the world in this way. it makes for a good life.

What’s Hygge?
The Danish word Hygge (hugh-gah) is a feeling or mood that comes from taking genuine pleasure in making ordinary everyday things simply extraordinary.
It’s about being conscious and authentic from home to work to friends to celebrations to the every day tasks. Hygge can be used to describe a lot of things in a lot of ways.
My favourite? Simple, cosy, charming. That's what I hope to share here.
By the way, I'm alex (the girl). Learn more here.Elsewhere
