Howdy, and welcome to my Society6 site! My name is Barbara Marincel, and I live in beautiful Minneapolis, Minnesota, and began taking nature photos a years ago with an iPod (yes, an iPod), hoping that a new creative endeavor might help me jazz up my writing, Much to my surprise, I fell head over heels in love with photography, even with just an iPod, and I haven't stopped shooting since! (I should note that I have since moved on to a DSLR.) I specialize in still photography and nature photos, including macro shots, and digital art.

Creatively, I am inspired by nature, especially the beauty of flowers, poetry, Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, the lakes and forests of Minnesota, and I love all things vintage, particularly my family mementos. I love to experiment with digital art, especially textures, tints, and scripts, as well as straight photography with art lenses. I hope you enjoy my work!
