The first time I knew this woman rocked as artist and Co-Creator was a comment she made on one of my posted abstracts. She suggested that I put scales on my Practice Fish “Oh My!”, when I took her suggestion, the piece became in my eyes.. brilliant. Rachel is a tremendous force of Artistic originality and she is so very helpful in our RB community. Approachable and friendly, her work is eclectic, as she utilizes many different mediums. You will love her Vibe! PLEASE VIEW OUR SHOWCASE MEMBER THIS WEEK ON THE FRONT OF OUR HOME PAGE SCROLL DOWN Katri Paints a world spoken by feelings. An artist after our own heart here at VaVoom. Katri told me her interest in painting started in early childhood as she would scribble in every book she got her hands on! She stopped doing anything till 10 years ago when she began to work with soft pastels then she got acquainted with oil and now lately acrylics. No formal training, Katri says: “I am audioaddict”. She never plans her work. Her muse is life; relationships and stories from others that she brings to life with her brush and her heART. Gifted and intuitive in nature Katri is one of my all time faves! This week we chose to feature: DEEP BLUE SOMETHING Is an exquisite artist. I cannot tell the difference between his work being ‘real’ as in a photograph, or the talented hand of which he creates these stunning images. Most of his subjects are women, and are not we lucky! He picks up on the sensual and lovely side of a woman, Terry feels the essence of womanhood. If I did not see his pic I would wonder if indeed a woman had not drawn these images. *PLEASE SEE FULL INTERVIEW WITH TERRY IN OUR ‘HOT OFF THE PRESS’ SECTION Terry has been creating art since he was old enough to hold a crayon. He received his Bachelors Degree in Commercial Arts and Business from the University of Kansas and, after graduation, began his career as a commercial artist, illustrator, and designer. For ‘A Little Breeze’ Terry: “started with a photo that I found in an old reference file – did a marker sketch on white 80 lb. cover stock paper using warm and cool grey markers and then layered cool and warm colored chalk pastels on top.” This week we chose:It’s About Time INTUITIVE>RETIERED>FUN>FABULOUS That is what we think of her vibe here at VaVoom! She says: “I spend quite some time making digital art, using programs like Apophysis, Incendia, Photoshop, PaintshopPro etc. etc. In fact, every program I can lay hands on….:) The sky is the limit!” But when you see her work you could say her heART goes well past the sky!! Wow! This week we chose to feature: Water Colors it is so beautiful we had to include this piece ‘shining large’ in our blog. Water Colors Vincent’s DAY Dream ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ THE~ YELLOW~ FURY ~ PROCESS.. SIMON’S WORDS: 1. Getting it right is the best feeling on earth. I want to do stuff nobody else has thought of. 2. NO constraints taking the idea as it comes to me.. respect the process quick or not when I do it keeps coming from my subconscious and lucid thoughts and dreams. 4. I have to be on form and it takes at least an hour of sitting around watching documentaries on the net drinking tea and smoking for me to get in the mood and even then if I don’t feel like it I won’t try to start or force it. This week we chose: The Hamster Drawing Because it Rules.. Simon Rules. LOVES TO FLY.. with the eagles, kingfishers, great blue herons to name a few. What happens between him and his captive subjects are left to the heart felt imagination as I sometimes feel his birds put on a ‘for your eyes only’ display of their talents. What is really wonderful is ‘WE’ belong to Red Bubble and so does David! Thereby we get to see this amazing relationship of man and bird, I for one am thrilled! “I have a passion for capturing photographic images of our living planet, from humans in all their varied activities, to plants and animals in their pursuit of lfe, and to the marvels of our planet’s geography.” This week we chose to feature: Huntress KNOWS ENOUGH… she knows how to love and be loved. Her Art is an expression of her world around her that brings us a peaceful sense that ‘All is Well’ no matter what. I have known C.J. for most of my time here at RB and she is as Positive as they come. Her art charms and softens my world. Her lastest works displayed here depicts people and beast, I would not mind meeting any of them.. even those Nosey Parkers!! *_"First and foremost, I am a fine artist in that I do my art by hand using oils, acrylics, watercolours and other mediums on canvas, board or paper. The few works that I do on computer as digital paintings are done using tools in software by adding colour to a blank document then using tools like the paintbrush, air-brush or smudge tool to move that colour around to create the image/s. I use the mouse to move the tools as I do not have a Wacom graphics tablet."_* WHEN I’M 64 We chose to feature one of her very first paintings: Fruition ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Red talked to me a bit about his love of writing; “I have been writing forever. I never sit down to write. Something just pops into my head and I have no idea where it comes from." I write because I have lots of things to say. If I didn’t write I think I might be about 20 times more nuts than I am now.” Kung-foo at Midnight in Seattle _It must be something about the moon The light of the moon (PRINTED IN IT’S ENTIRETY) Becca says outright: “I’m not a writer…I have just written down a journal/ a diary of my life" – that’s all really… make it up …..so it sounds ok.” (Another personal note: Hahaha.) I don’t have to make up anything for Becca. Her work speaks for itself. Often raw with intensity of the realities some of us face in our lives, her poetry never ceases to leave a mark on one’s soul. She often writes about not taking things for granted and loving what we do have rather than focusing on what we don’t. See: Looking for LoveThis week I chose to feature: Conscience Should I call someone to help? (more to this amazing piece,,, follow the link) Paul is a Canadian award winning author. He is a poet and a story teller. In the past he wrote of his life till his life got in his way. Taking a bit of a hiatus he is back now writing again. He is published and is a proud father of 3 girls. I am a big fan of Paul’s not only because of the artistry of his works in writing, art and photography, but also because of the variety in his work. This week I chose: There is a tear, follow this link for more of Paul’s Poem Wendy is a healer as her work and espically this poem assisted me when I came to Red Bubble. I was trying to find my way to forgiveness concerning my father and me. She has shown up when I least expected it and has been a sister and a friend and leads the way for others, by her shining example that we can make it in the Art World I have volumes in my heart and soul bout this woman who is a mother and an amazing creator. Her poetry moves me like no other. This week I chose the poem that gave me so so much: _The woman watches The words fall useless on the ground, Time tiptoes past unnoticed The woman listens Forgive me, it sings (PRINTED IN IT’S ENTIRTY) ‘Gifted’ is what I think of when I view her prose and her images. Lilith- has worked extensively with other poets like Leon Walker Co-Creating with her images a deeper feeling for ones already amazing prose. However, Lilith is quite the poet herself. This week we chose to feature: I, ignorant simply incredible writing. *_Loneliness Not knowing the faces I, ignorant Wandering in incomprehencibility (Lilith) (PRINTED IN IT’S ENTIRETY) ALAN IS A POETS POET. He writes with a classic style, lush and original metaphor, the subject matter he uses is just about anything that strikes his fancy. He is new to our site and to VaVoom. We are so happy he decided to join our group and we know you will want to take some time viewing his poems and his images for they are both astounding. This week we chose to feature: Living with A Muse which as Dean puts it: ‘Tis a frail thing this voice ‘Tis a conceit twirled with hope © Alan Dean (PRINTED IN IT’S ENTIRETY) IN MEMORY OF MOSHES COHEN’S DEAREST FRIEND AND SISTER IN LAW ~ BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOURS, MOSHE ~ LIFE EVERLASTING Teehee.. you know how I love gifs…teheee
Dumas lovingly created a new iron mask no more tears to witness Your head is resting on my hip (PRINTED IN ITS ENTIRETY) _Situations strip you of something. Have joy airplane its way in and the stewardess greets you with a sickle. You’d pay the price and regurgitate African stew. I don’t mind joy, spreaded like jam, and always on that bitter black burnt toast that undercurrents the sour bun of my life._ (More here follow link) _Truth: Reality: Cosmic Process: (PRINTED IN IT’S ENTIRETY) EDITORS FAV OF THE WEEK LIFE IS ME _Life is not hard Life is beautiful No, life is not hard Life does not scare me (PRINTED IN IT’S ENTIRETY) THIS WEEKS JAMMINS AND VID’S BY OUR OWN SHOAIB ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ HOT OFF THE PRESS *"TERI HINKLE":http://www.redbubble.com/people/terryhinkle ANSWERS THIS BLOGGERS QUESTIONS…AND BLOGGLES HER MIND! EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW~ DISCOVERING HIS FEMININE SIDE WHICH VIBRATES CREATION. ALSO… THE SECRETS TO HIS ARTISTIC PROCESS.. WOW!* TERRY HINKLE HE ANSWERS TWO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:
While writing Plan BE, Secrets of the Divine Feminine – Book One , I started listening again to my artistic muse. So much of the information in the book is about the creative Feminine Energy, and that empowering information inspired me to start drawing again and create all the art for my book. Most of the drawings that I needed to illustrate the Spiritual/Sexual information in the book were of women and after the book I continued to create the pastel pieces of women that you can see on RedBubble. Every piece of art is created with the intention of activating the higher vibration of creative Feminine Energy in everyone, and the reactions to the feelings that my art gives the viewer has been very personal and passionate: “… you work is like therapy for women, it makes us feel proud of who we are!!!” “… I felt compelled to just write you a quick note to let you know that your artwork makes me feel incredibly lucky to be a woman.” The vibration of the higher levels of Feminine aspect of Energy (brought about by higher emotions) helps to transmute the lower human physical Energies into the higher spiritual Energies. The activation of the Feminine Energy helps to give each person who views my art a greater ability to feel their passion, to create, attract, store, and transmute the highest levels of Universal Life Force Energy. The emotions that my art creates can be bothering to some. The art can awake feelings deeply buried inside that a person might not be ready to (or want to) deal with. A good example is a piece titled: “Open Your Heart Chakra.” This Vibrational Art will help empower each person who owns a copy to transform his or her world. Each work of art that I produce resonates with the Alchemy of Energy that I purposefully put into it. My originals and prints continually resonate with the intended inspirational Energy. SECOND QUESTION I do get a little tight with most of my pieces and I am trying to loosen up. But I have been working with different techniques where I blend traditional art techniques and media with new electronic techniques and media to create a harmony that hopefully blurs the line between computer and canvas. I usually first create an under-painting using some combo of paint, markers, pastels and pencils. OMG.. I FEEL TERRY’S INTERVIEW AND THE KNOWLEDGE HE CARRIES AS VIBRATIONAL BEINGS, HELPS ME TO UNDERSTAND WHY I AM SO DRAWN TO HIS WORK. ![]() I is DONE!!!! Lisa J: “OH LINAJI, I AM STILL SLEEPING AUSSIE TIME AND IT IS MONDAY.. SHHHUH.. GO BOTHER THE BOYS..” Linaji: "OH NOW THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN! Linaji: “BOYS OHHH BOYS TO MEEEEENNNNN” Shoaib: “OH MAN LINAJI, I GOT THIS WEEK OFF AND NEXT TOO!” Linaji: “OK..(Linaji vows to learn how he does that kind of fineggeling) BUT YOU CAN HELP ME SAY GOODNIGHT CAN’T YOU?” Cassidy: "HEY LINAJI SHOAIB ,,, AM I LATE.. I JUST BEEN GONE BECAUSE.. (as Cass talks on Shoaib and Linaji look at each other, they know Cass has Linaji beat for going on and on, they smile) (as Cass continues to explain, Linaji smiles and feels kinda Adult for once) L: Cass, Caaaasssssiddy!! Say Good night!! C: Oh but Linaji, You always say ‘goodnight’ you see I ’ve … L: Cass .. Cass you can do it.. I promise It feels right ..right Shoaib S: Huh? Oh Yah Linaji.. you cool and Cass is too.. Yah Cass Say Goodnight and all.. C: (with all this love in his voice says) “Hey everyone.. I am so so happy “GOODNIGHT…. LISA JEWELL DREAMS THAT ALL IS WELL… AND SO IT IS. |
