Welcome to Surrealmuse Studios – the site that features art, desktops, photography, projects, recipes, reviews, videos plus musings on our adventures in the Tampa Bay area. Living is an Art.

Back in 2002, I created a personal online diary to share my reflections on life and art. Under the pseudonym of surrealmuse, I wrote about my creative adventures, and in time decided to make the blog public in order to share the visual side of my life.

As a self-taught artist, I discovered how sharing my artistic adventures also inspired fellow artists to embark on the creative path. As the old saying goes, “If you build it, they will come.”

Over the years, the site has evolved to cover everything from cool art sites to even occasional thoughts on spirituality. Within the past year, the site has expanded to invite local contributing authors, feature local Tampa Bay Art Events, and develop an ever increasing collection of art links.

If you would like to get involved or would like more information on Surrealmuse Studios please contact us.

Michael Kachelski Your Treasure Lies where your Heart is. But the treasure is not gold, nor precious jewels. This treasure can only be grasped with ones heart. I seek this treasure faithfully by day and by night in my sleep. I find clues in poetry, art and the hearts of beautiful people. I humbly ask you to join me on this journey.
