Dear Esteemed Nominees, Solo Exhibition Members, and Guests, This week, with the 5th Juried Invitational Art Exhibition, presented by the Solo Exhibition group of RedBubble, we celebrate sixty-two artists and sixty-five works in the digital, traditional, and photographic arts. A panel of 3 Nominators was challenged to search the 39,000-image gallery, and from that, invite select works for exhibition. Nominators were chosen, based on their considerable expertise in one of the three categories. There are 24 Traditional, 22 Photographic, and 19 Digital works in the show, representing 62 artists. Three artists each have two works exhibited, having been invited by two different nominators. Twenty-two countries are represented in this truly international show, including two that represent “homeland”, but not current residence. Judges will award 1st – 3rd places in each of Digital, Traditional, and Photographic Arts. The work with the highest score will be awarded Best in Show, besides a category first place. Judges will also make special merit awards. The exhibit is open to comments as of Monday, July 26th! The show runs July 26th through August 1st, 2010. Awards Day is on Wednesday, July 28th, around noon, New York time (see world clock link, below). Congratulations to all! And thank you for coming to the exhibition and supporting these wonderful artists. Each month, all of the members of the Solo Exhibition group have the opportunity for one or more of their works to be selected for a SoJie (Solo’s Juried Invitational Exhibition). To qualify, a member has to have joined the group at least in the calendar month prior to the current show. Respectfully, F.A. Moore, Founder and host Maxy, Reception Manager and co-host, and Elizabeth Bravo, Graphics Coordinator and co-host

Photographic Art Brand new Fujifilm HS10 camera set on the "Super Macro setting. Uncropped and pretty much straight from the camera as I’m trying to see what kind of prints this camera is capable of producing. Opened RAW in Silkypix, saved to JPEG and sized in Elements 7. (I haven’t learned anything about working in Silkypix yet, but that’s the only RAW converter for this camera so far.)

Photographic Art This is one of my very early pieces taken Aug 2009. Since I’m always a “bubble off level” I was shooting this (Tucson, AZ neighborhood) house on the angle while others were taking it’s lovely front facade. I’ve been delighted by bubblers’ response to this shot. I like the “stacked boards” of the walls going up to the house and the delightful array of colors.

Photographic Art I spent one beautiful and bright summer night in early July of this lake, the silence, the atmosphere was incredible.

Traditional Art Although this started out trying to be a self-portrait, the end result looks a bit different. Me perhaps in a former life?

Photographic Art Captured the image of this sadhu at Badrinath, India and the flowers in background were made to fit into this one.

Digital Art Two straight Photographs taken of my daughter. The first was a frame of her looking into the birdhouse. The Second was taken of her in a pose. I then manipulated both frames in the Gimp Program.

Photographic Art The photo was taken at one of several lakeside birdfeeders I maintain to attract wildlife here at my home in the Adirondack Park in Upstate, NY. To the dismay of the chipmunks and birds, the red squirrels take ownership and will occupy a feeder for long periods of time. Sometimes another red squirrel will wait his turn, but soon start to vocalize in protest. If this continuous scolding doesn’t work, a “rumble” is sure to follow!

Photographic Art It was come back from Dracun peak and I walked close to Bare, small village in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina. At the moment I noticed this typical winter village idyll. You can see just a part of roof and it look like a promise. Good place to avoid cold.

Digital Art
A digitally painted hand drawn artwork… the inspiration for this is “Meeting Places”… As a child one of the most frequent things we did together as a family was to attend church on Sundays, I went to a Catholic School and the church I remember best was St Agnes’ at Port Macquarie… the nuns would come over for morning tea sometimes, and the priests would come for dinner occasionally…they were the days of fun parish picnics and life that wasn’t so hurried..when we took time to socialise, meeting and enjoying one another’s company. Mum was/is a great cook and host…and although this picture isn’t authentic as a portrait of her and myself…it’s representative.
It’s also representative of new life and hope for the future, as the mother figure is with child….. and the child herself nurtures the wildlife…perhaps she is taking them to church for a blessing… perhaps the joey has lost his mother and needs nursing til he can fend for himself.
The kookaburra is all seeing and all knowing….. the wise overseer of the bush… in this case, he stands in as the owl figure.

Traditional Art I just finished a few days ago, is the most recent work of mine. I met and felt the expression “when the mind playing chess with the soul”… and I think it had some influence on what I’ve created.

Photographic Art Mousehole – a picturesque fishing village in a beautiful setting. Like Newlyn and Penzance sacked by a Spanish raiding party in July 1595 when the whole village except one house was burnt to the ground. That house, Squire Keigwins, whose owner lost his life defending it, is now the oldest remaining. A hundred years ago it was a bustling place, with the harbour crowded with fishing boats, landing locally caught pilchards, destined to be packed into barrels.

Digital Art “My Soul” lies beneath – a work you may never see, Amethyst: a reflection of my past, thoughts of the quartz geode from my great, great grandfather— a history-teacher, geological explorer, and international tour company founder. I’ve always been in love with that “rock”, although uncut Amethyst is not uncommon. Opal: a reflection of my future, here shown as the milky bluish to greenish variety, which may or may not be of gemstone quality. Nevertheless, I prefer its lack of “play of color”, despite it being more common. Red: representing a vibrant life, filled with people and events, and gifts given and received; made to reflect other colors I hold dear, because they are the clothing of God, revealed to us in nature.

Traditional Art I created this drawing (originally called ‘Garden of Knowledge’) based on the movements of ants, recording how and where they moved, fused with my own imagination, and again supported by the compositional work of Lola Perrin.

Photographic Art I pushed in with the little kiddies at the Sydney Royal Easter Show – Friendship Farm! ♥

Traditional Art Well, I don’t know that I can recall that far back anymore – as I did this during my thirty ninth summer here on this planet – influenced heavily (think steal!) by the Sir Jones at the Tate. Ah, such a sad little story going on in this tangle. Maybe I was having another pity party… Most likely!

Photographic Art Original taken… at 9pm on a crisp Spring evening on Moulin Moor, 2 miles west of Pitlochry, Perthshire, Scotland. This was a series of 25 shots of various views taken as the mist swirled and curled down the river valley, the cloud and light changing every second. Processed through Picasa 3 ( cropped, and tuned) before processing through Dynamic Pro HDR to achieve the look I wanted.

Photographic Art An uncommon fog filled the bay this morning, there was no wind. A shaft of the early morning sun caught on the guide posts lighting up the channelway into the jetty. The only sound was from the herons and oyster catchers fossicking for breakfast on the flats

Photographic Art Lake Lane, Copper Lake, just outside of the town of the famous, or some might say infamous, Woodstock, NY, is a beautiful lake . Copper Lake has magic light that surrounds you the moment you enter the tiny lane that runs along Copper Lake’s curves. Mornings are my favorite there. Lake Lane captures just one moment of beauty of the place, as fog and mist rolled and settled along the lane and lake.
