About

Leah~Wyntr Vision Photography

I’ve been taking pictures since I could hold a camera. Taking pictures of everything and anything. In high school I learned how to develop my own black & white film and prints. That was when I first left the country taking pictures to document my journey of learning in the British Isles. I went to UWO to continue following my passion of photography, mixing it with my love of science and started taking pictures underwater while learning about coral reefs. I love traveling and taking pictures of what I see. From swimming in the oceans to climbing mountains to our local Wisconsin wildlife I try to bring the beauty of the world to life in my photographs.

In 2009 I broadened my horizons to include portraits. I worked at a photography studio that did family and personal portraits. I tried to learn poses and how to work in a studio with lights. I didn’t like the constraints of working in the studio and left after the holiday season. However, I still wanted to continue to learn about posing and working with people so I started working with a friend who photographed all varieties of portraits. From families to artistic and all sorts of occasions. I went with her and watched how she worked with them. We weren’t in a studio but working with the area around us. Now I work on my own, freezing moments in time while you live them. Welcome to my world, take a look around and enjoy the view. Wyntr Vision Photography.

Nikki~Shock 22

There’s far too much creativity inside to flow in one direction!!! I started as an Original sketch artist of my own free will in High School. I branched out into pottery, then painting…Painting struck a fancy, I found a niche’ in acrylic portraits. Fashion design came shortly after, since I’ve been sketching clothing ideas since 7. I attended schooling for design, where in came tons of fashion model sketching. When things were at a plateau for me I learned to pierce.. So Now… Here I am… designing clothes, altering clothes, painting portraits and other things… Among other design challenges and body alterations… Ask… that’s all I can say, If you’re inspired I’d love to help. Shock 22.

Liz~Blooming Flatware

I started at the age of 19 as a floral designer. I always liked to create, whether with flowers, sewing, cooking, baking or taking pictures throughout the years. I enjoy doing art projects with my two amazing daughters. After I got hurt in a car accident I no longer could work in the flower industry, so I had to find another way to express my creativity. One of my daughters saw this spoon art and thought I could do it. It started out simple, just a table rose made with plastic spoons, then I realized there was so much more I could create with spoons and here I am now after 7 years making art with plastic spoons.

Ask me how to get your forever rose today! Blooming Flatware.

Tom~Into the Light

I’ve always been right brained but wasn’t really very good at drawing, so in high school I channeled my creativity into music. I played the electric bass guitar and eventually started writing songs.

I started carving in the late 90’s, flat 3D work in pine boards using a Dremel rotary tool. I then moved on to small wooden statues. I started with a goddess figure, and then moved onto angels. I loved the feel, the smell of the wood. 3D seemed so much easier than drawing. I could touch and feel what needed to be done. A little here, a little there, touch and tub till it looked and felt just right.

It was here that I got my mark, what I use as a signature. I would meditate and clear myself for carving. I would ask my higher self, my spirit guide, my guardian angel (call it what you will) to guide my hands and to bless the piece, to fill it with healing energy.

Once I asked my guide what its name is, what I should call it. The answer… Rachel. So I started signing my work with the letter R- I wasn’t doing this, it was Rachel.

Then in the early 2000’s I learned to play the guitar and started writing again. Again god was with me, ibn a few months I had enough songs to cut a CD, which I neamed “Into the light”

And now my latest venture. Everybody knows Bob Ross (if not, then you’re really missing something). Well, I watch Bob whenever I can and told my daughter that painting like Bob was on my bucket list. Father’s Day 2010 she bought me an easel, some canvases, and a Bob Ross starter set. I was on my way. Now I’ll tell you, he makes it look easier than it really is (how many times did I yell BOB LIES!!!), but it is a fairly easy technique to pick up and I’m loving it. I’m a novice but I’m doing things I never thought I could. Into the light.
