How To Steal Like An Artist
So, before you get your knickers in a knot and spit out your coffee all over your screen…I want to share with you this great article by Austin Kleon I stumbled on this afternoon. Titled, How to Steal Like An Artist, and subtitled “10 things nobody told you about being creative”, it contains great tips for when we’re feeling a little less inspired.
I would normally skim ov…
Just a Quick Note...
…to wish you all a wonderful Christmas. I hope you are able to spend it with those you love and cherish.
A thank you to all my RB friends who have been so warm and supportive throughout the year – your friendship and kindness means a lot to me. Another year has flown by and I am thankful for the community spirit that is found within these virtual gallery walls – there really is …
Am I missing Something?
I find myself asking on those occasions when life gets really busy and stressful. And YES! I most certainly am missing something – I’m missing that balanced feeling I get when I can shut out the busy-ness and the noise and the stress and instead create. But if life has been that busy that it’s taken away your creative self, I have recently found that I turn to this video (I mea…
I may have been silent – until now...
I am adding my voice to the chorus of those who are declaring that they are NOT leaving RB.
I have been a member of this site since July 2007 and I have made many friends, had some wonderful laughs and have learnt so, so much while being a member. I am upset to see that some members are choosing to leave – they are leaving behind a community that has no doubt nurtured them as it has nurtured me a…
AddOn Photographic Festival - Sydney
I’m always keen to support fellow RB artists so that was why I found myself over in Paddington at the Mary Place Gallery this afternoon. Curated by Charles McKean, the exhibition features photographs – all unnamed and untitled and not for sale. Each image is square in format and presented identically, white matt and frame. The size of the photographs is such that they invite you to step up to the…
A Lo-Fi Look at the Sydney Red Bubble Meet-Up
As you’ve probably already read over here, a group of us got together to visit the Annie Leibovitz exhibition in Sydney yesterday. We had a lovely time, in spite of the showers; the guided tour at the gallery gave many of us a new insight in how Annie Leibovitz works, we dined at Circular Quay, walked through The Rocks area and took advantage of some photo opportunities. Below are some photos f…

Then and Now
I thought I’d share this “Then and Now” I’ve done for a challenge on another site. I’ve had the “Then” photo sitting on my desk at home for a while now and had been meaning to create the “Now”; there always an excuse to put it off to another time… Seeing the photos by Irina Werning was the final push I needed to get out there and take th…
Wow! Who knew? Scanography?
All this time there’s been a technique called “Scanography”, and I’ve only just realised? Of course over the years I’ve scanned various body parts, like hands…but to legitimately scan objects and turn them into art? That I did not know. So, what I want to now know is, what other obscure photographic techniques are out there that I haven’t heard of?
Here&#…
