For the love of diptych


Hello. Its Liss here from Daydream Lily filling in for Tina whilst she is on her way to beautiful Paris.

I've always loved pairing two separate images together on my blog to tell a mini story. Its alot of fun to match the images looking for color tones, composition or elements that will go together. I never knew this had an official term until Tina did a post about a diptych artist. I love learning new words!! and this one sounds so strange, don't you think?

    thanks for teaching a new word :)
    And those diptychs are really gorgeous! I love the one with a rose and slippers with ribbon. I guess I'm that romantic ;)

    I just learned that word too! I love it but not as much as I love they way they look when they are done right. These are perfection! Thanks for sharing.

    So charming! The photos have the color palette of feminine soft pastels, but they still have a strong, rugged edge to them, which makes it a compelling collection to view.
