“A Touch of Paradise” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © Sunrise in tropical Mission Beach, far north Queensland, Australia. “Flamingos walk, and sway in peace / Seeing this, it makes my troubles cease / The sun is hiding, leaving a pink scar / That stretches right across the sky / Thats all weve seen so far / And all I do is look into your eyes / For that special touch of paradise / Just a touch, a touch of paradise / Just a special touch of paradise / You hold my hand, thats when we kiss / And it doesnt take long no, until I get the gist / Of this love that stretches out across the land / Where rainbows flash, as were walking in the sand / And all I do is look into your eyes / A touch of spring, and autumn sweet / Well the trees vibrate when our eyes meet / And I think of all the love that we have been making / You touch my hand and I walk off shaking / And all I do is look into your eyes.” / ~Ross Wilson and G Smith

I was having lunch with my beautiful wife the other day at a rather unusual place, right across the road from my office. Never been there before… it was at the Northern Metropolitan Institute of Tafe and they have the special room on the third floor where trainee chefs get to practice their cooking skills and serve to the unsuspecting public. This was the view virtually from the table I was sitting at… the view was way better than the food!
Took this through Palm Leaf. I wasn’t sure about the outcome but I really like the look. Taken in St. Lucia, another beautiful sunset. FEATURED IN THE FOLLOWING GROUPS: / “OUTSIDERS” NIKON D-80 / LENS – VR 5-200MM As Is

The Light Within You Nourishes My Dreams / Palm Fronds Silhouettes Dramatic Skies / Makawao Hawaii From my collection: / Awakening in Paradise / Maui Hawai’i “So many grains of sand / So many stars in the sky / So many miles around this planet of life / The sounds of creation must have echoed back along the corridors of the universe across the passionate heat of the Sun through the loving heart of Venus to unite twin souls together once separated by space and time What ancient calendar could have predicted that our time is now? / But here we are / I stand in the presence of a beauty beyond the stars / A loving, bright and beautiful soul that brings so much love and joy to my heart My night now bright with the starlight of your eyes / Your heavenly body graces my sky, night to day, the light within you nourishes my dreams and I see forever in your eyes Your lips touch mine and I am taken to a place, to a place of joy and hope and promise of a life together in our home You and me at the top of the mountain looking down on the world of love we created So kiss me / Hold me / Fill me up with your love that I may breathe only to whisper the words I love you!” ~ Poetry by David Stanley Bell

Sales of this design so far – 1 sale / / / Summer Heat is a mixed media production on Canson Me-Teintes textured pastel/mixed media paper…. being December in Australia we are experiencing some very warm weather, today the beach was at it’s most gorgeous, this painting is inspired by the sultry salty warm days by the beach we love at this time of year, and the beautiful hues of the water when it’s still like a milk pond as it was this morning :) In the background is an icecream van set up by the beach, which has caught the little one’s eye and she’s waving to the vendor. I’ve used pastels and charcoal, both white and black varieties, as well as pencil and black Faber Castelle markers The original work is available unframed for $220, but it is not so bright and in softer hues… this piece has been enhanced a bit in photoshop
Late evening sunset near Cowell on the Eyre Peninsula – South Australia. The highest thing on the road side where a small bunch of thistle heads that looked liked small palm trees sitting up into the sky. Canon 400D, 18-55 with CIR Polarising filter.
Sunset in Negril, Jamaica. This whole trip for me was about learning how to compose my images. This one in particular I focused on the sun being framed between the palm trees. Taken with the “foliage” setting on my camera with just a little boost with color in digital editing to enhance it.
