Art on a Shoestring - Alicia Bock

I love Alicia Bock's photographs. They have such a dreamy quality to them. I imagine her having the coolest life...like something out of a Ralph Lauren ad or a French movie.

You know, wandering through sundrenched fields,

or strolling up and down the beach with the wind whipping through her hair,

or sitting at a French cafe sipping lattes and snapping photos.

I know noboody's life is really that dreamy (she is a mother after all), but that's the sort of ambience her photos have.

I recently bought a package of five of Alicia's postcard prints for $8. I was originally only going to frame a couple of them but I loved them so much I came up with a new plan. I tacked some twine to the wall like a clothesline and then hung the postcards with mini clothes pins.

Tres lovely...(yes, perhaps I should work on my French).

Alicia also has larger prints available for $35 on her Etsy shop or on her website, which is very reasonable in my humble and thrifty opinion. Not that she needs free advertising from me since she's a superstar and all (seriously, her stuff has been on Grey's Anatomy and Sex in the City)...I just had to share with y'all.
