Sarah Mac - Journal

Yay! I just read this over at Karin Taylor’s journal, Redbubble now have a straight up photographic print option for those of use who don’t want a matte or framing or lamination. I’m really pleased about this.
You have to go through and edit each work to manually add it, so it looks like I’ll be busy!

Hi there! I recently drew a coloured portrait of Jim from ‘The Office’ and took photos and recorded my process in case anyone is interested in taking a look.

The Making of Jim

Thanks!

Thanks The Gold Coast community mods!
I was made a feature artist this month and have a little interview over here .
Cheers!

Wow, I hadn’t noticed the counter we have in our art feed at the top until last week, and today mine hit 100,000 visits! Thanks to everyone who’s come over for a visit. It’s always appreciated. :)

Just a little welcome to my cousin Kate, who I discovered on Redbubble today!
She’s a Melbourne based gal, mad skillz with the camera and post-click editing techniques. Check out her work, fantastic urban Melbourne scenes with a moody edge. Fascinating stuff!

Yay, I have finally gotten my act together and have art in this weekend’s Marymount Art Show (Gold Coast, Australia). I went to opening night last night, had a great time and have already sold Melanie and Marie so that’s great!
I have an acrylic painting Seaplane and watercolour Monkey’s Library in there also.
There’s a lot of fantastic art in there, the best painting award…

I happened across this and wanted to share it. We only ever see black and white photos from the depression so to see these real photographs, in colour is something else. I find them quite amazing, the raw humanity and simple colour with complex textures.

I recently did a progress journal of a painting, and while I don’t think of it as a tutorial per se, I thought I’d link it here in case anyone was interested, as I always am of watching other peoples artwork take shape.
I linked it to the painting itself (click picture below) but I thought I’d put it here too.

Painting a Portrait…

Hope you like it! * waves *

I made a blog! Just thought I’d put it out there in case anyone felt like a look. It’s not art specific but I might put a step-by-step process in there at some point. It’s mainly just musings and what I’ve been up to. Okay thanks and hope you all had a productive Drawing Day! It was fun.

…that you can design the front page?
I found the forum the other week and today’s front page of the Vancouver olympics is my design! Makes me all giddy that they chose it.
If anyone else wants to try putting one together, the forum is here:

Have fun! It’s a bit addictive.
