inspiration can come from anywhere.....nature, magazines, paintings, fashion, pictures, songs..... if i see something in a magazine ill tear it out, if i see something outside ill take a picture of it, if i hear something i like i write it down. you never know when and where a good idea will come from.
i love looking at visual displays in stores. these are created by a very talented group of people to attract and inspire consumers. i got the idea of the metallic branches from anthropologie's rock center store in ny last december. below are some pictures i took to give me ideas of colors, shapes and arrangements.
i asked my dad to help me out and search for the right branches (in particular birch since nature is ever so kind to start you off with a white canvas) after getting together enough sticks (10-15) i pruned them up so there were no stray twigs shooting out. i sprayed each stick differently; lighter on some and heavier on others. i liked how copper, silver and gold were used in the display so i switched off between these colors and also left some natural to add in the mix. paint these in an open space with lots of air....

Looks so good, and simple to attempt as well.
