Hi & welcome to my Flickr photo stream. I am Mandy Saile, a maker of happy and colourful images and whimsical artwork for inspired living. I am a multi-disciplinary artist but my oh my how coloured pencils make my heart and fingers sing. My work is meant to inspire & act as a reminder towards all the abundant joy & beauty in life whiles also telling stories about kindness & connection, especially between us & the animal kingdom. My artistic journey is not an easy one by far for I am a chronic & acute migraine/headache sufferer but I can now see a serendipitous connection between the pain I live with & the whimsical work that I make. When I am not creating artwork or nursing head pain, you'll likely find me just being with my handsome beloved, doting on our wonderful warren of rescued house rabbits, curled up with books, soy lattes, jazz or out and about in my kayak. I make my life, family & art amongst the green sea of trees, sparkling lakes & crisp fresh air of North Bay, Canada. For more please do visit us now and often at www.MandySaile.com
