Art Photography GIVEAWAY!
July 20, 2009
Hello friends. I am pleased to introduce you to an amazing travel and interior design photographer, Mr. Tim Irving.
Tim Irving is a full time photographer, who has been taking photographs since he was 9 years old. He’s English, and attended art school in London, which included a spell at the Royal College of Art.
Mr. Irving specializes in travel and interior photography. He earns his living taking photos of houses and interiors, for magazines, agencies and holiday brochures. He also produces art photographs which he sells in his Etsy shop. He resides in Spain, but travels extensively for his work, all through Europe, India and Africa. He has another Etsy shop Spanish Angels featuring vintage treasures from Spain and France (not included in giveaway).
Now doesn’t his life sound so exotic? Just looking at his images and his Etsy shops takes me right back to my European travels from years ago. Sigh.
Tim Irving’s recent work has been seen in Time Magazine, The Times (London), the National Portrait Gallery (UK), Lowry Gallery (UK), My Castle in Spain (blog) and the book ‘100 of the Best Tapas Bars in Granada’ (limited availability on Amazon). For a look at selected images available for sale on his Etsy shop, look here.
You can also follow Tim’s blog StyleMed, featuring a glimpse at Mediterranean style and design. How fascinating is his life !

I love Paris Metro — it reminds me of my first trip to Paris a couple of years ago. It would look lovely in my French kitchen overlooking my rose and jasmine trellis.
The Carousel is by far my favorite. How lovely of Tim to sponsor this give away!! Thank you both!
Hmmm … I like African Kitchenalia or Over the Garden Fence. Either would look lovely in my kitchen. Love your blog!! I found you today from One Pretty Thing.
I love Provence, France. I have decided to actually decorate my bedroom and that picture would be beautiful above my bed. thanks for the great giveaway! Shannon
Perfect for the kitchen would be
African Kitchenalia and African Market
thanks
I am in lOVE with "over the garden fence" i have been looking for a picture like this one to put on my one lone bedroom wall :)
My very, very favorite is Provence, France, although it's incredibly hard to pick just one! I believe I would hang it either in my bathroom or by my bed. I am loving Tim's work! Thanks for telling us about him! I hope to purchase some pictures for my college apartment.
This one is my fave: African Kitchenalia
It would be perfect for our kitchen!
Hi, I'm having such a hard time picking just one favorite photo…I'm just lovin them all! If I were forced to pick, it would be "African Market"…I would place it on a shelf in my kitchen to add a punch of color and some wonderful character!

I absolutely LOVE your blog! These pictures are fantastic, too! You've got a good eye… I think my favorite is "The Embrace, French Cherry Tree." I'm moving into a new, bigger apartment with lots of extra wall space and can think of a million places to hang it… but I'll probably be greedy and keep it in my bedroom. :)
Oh I think the carousel is lovely AS IS the dinner for two. Thanks for the great giveaway.

It's been a tough decision, but I'm picking "Lie Back and Think of Poppies."
I love African Kitchenalia… thanks so much for this opportunity!
My favorite is "African Kitchenalia", and I would happily hang it in my kitchen over my table. It's beautiful!
I love "Lone Parent" it will look great in my little girls bookcase.
They are all amazing!! to chose one favorite is sooo hard. But I would chose ‘Devotion to the Ocean’ since I love the vibrant color of the blue ocean. I would put this on my wall in my office.

Love that first one! (Over the garden fence) That shade of blue is my new obsession and I love the pink flowers with it!
I love Provence France. It's romantic and beautiful. It would go in the dining room. Wouldn't it make a great conversation piece over dinner? It's beautiful.
This beach girl would have to say Devotion to the Ocean..but then again, I've always wanted a dog..
Devotion to the ocean
I adore High Tide and Gina, Venice Beach. They'd look great in my aqua office.

OMG!!! How can I choose… ALL are absolutely stunning!!! I think because I just became the proud owner of a beach cruiser purchased at the Chelsea flea market in NYC, I am drawn to
"Provence, France 1999" so I would have to say I choose that one. it would look fabulous hung in my living room on my pale yellow walls with white trim, behind my vintage moss green queen ann chairs. =)
ooohhh… crossing my finger & my toes for this one!
I like several, but the best to me is the Caroussel, followed by the flamingo dress.
I love the "Provence, France" Its simple and beautiful the picture could go anywhere in my home and look lovely!
I love “Andalucia – Spanish Landscape.” What an amazing picture and it would look beautiful on my very bare living room walls. I have been looking gor a picture that will bring the colors together, and this is definitely it!
I absolutely LOVE “Street Party” and I would hang it in our kitchen just above our breakfast table.
Hello! I love so many of them. I hope the artist wouldn’t be insulted if I put Alpine Clouds in my bathroom. It’s so lovely and would go beautifully with the colours on my walls. Everyone uses the bathroom several times a day so it would receive plenty of viewership!
