Biography

Laurie Bertrand

After spending twelve years in Houston, Texas my husband and I recently moved to Sioux Falls, SD.

In winter I love...

fresh snow
ice on the river
frost on trees
a pale blue sky
seeing my breath on the air
a warm fire
documentary films

I've always been creative and interested in art and design. I make and photograph everything that you see on my site. Sometimes I make extra, so be sure to check out my shop when you have a minute or two.

If you have questions about my photography feel free to email me. I use a Canon Digital Rebel with a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro Lens, and a Tamron Autofocus 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II Lens (both for Canon Digital SLR Cameras).

Sometimes I think that the security codes you have to type in in order to leave comments on people's blogs are important and i have this strong desire to collect them. I have avoided it so far.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

"Laurie Bertrand has always loved art and design. All the crafts you see on her blog, Liquid Paper, are made and photographed by (Laurie) herself, from the teensy pins to the soft toys to the fabric bags. The photographs alone are colorful works of art, but the masterpieces contained within them are equally worthy of praise. Laurie sees beauty in everything; only in her hands could her trusty Canon Digital Rebel capture the magical beauty of… toast. If there’s art and design to be had, Laurie will find it, make it, and photograph it. Don’t forget to take a look at her Mod Dots shop where some of your favorite items are bound to turn up."
