Beautiful Things: Music and Treasures



Music and treasures....what does that mean?  Well, the music I have listed here is not only music that has been inspiring me, but also challenging me.  First on my list is Audrey Assad's album "The House You're Building."  Such a wonderful mix of guitar and piano, with her beautiful voice and lyrics that change one's heart.  I LOVE this album!  I listen to it all the time, and have found the songs to be comforting, challenging and worshipful.  




Next up is a treasure.  I love photography and the art that people have made of it, yet sometimes I lose sight of how wonderful it really is.  Often when I need to go back to the plain joy of photography I look at Laura Dart's photographic art.  She photographed Audrey Assad's album cover, as well as photos for Jeremy Camp, Andrew Belle, Joy Williams (of The Civil Wars), and Laura is a former Intern of Sarah Barlow's!  Her artwork is amazing and it truly is a treasure.  It brings one, "back to the basics."  She has a stunning vintage feel to her photos that does not seem faked.  It is warm, homey, and genuine. 




Ok, so I don't know what you all think of old looking lockets, but I adore them!  They are definitely treasures to me.  Once again, I feel they have a vintage, warm, genuine feel that brings one back in time.  I found this locket on etsy (greatness!), and think it is beautiful!




My next bit of music is Jeremy Larson's new album.  This album is more inspirational that anything.  I love listening to it as I edit photos or as I am brainstorming creative ideas.  Each song has an almost haunting feeling that makes me think of rainy days.  Love this project!



I hope you all have a wonderful afternoon!  I'm going to drink some tea and hit the books for a bit of studying.  
God Bless,
Megs
