'My Japan'
Late last year I was lucky enough to spend a couple of weeks in Japan on business. Between meetings, presentations, site visits and functions I just about always had a camera with me. Either the Pentax K5 or the Canon S95…or sometimes both!
Prior to this trip, I’d never been to Japan before, didn’t really know what to expect, but definitely looking forward to experiencing something different. We…
Taking a step back...
Oddly enough, not long after declaring my theme for 2012 would be to have fun making images, I just started to play in photoshop, experimenting, developing post processing techniques and feeling my way though what looks good…in fact I’m pretty happy with what I’ve come up with, to the point where I’ve been out with the camera specifically to create images that work well with this technique.
The i…
Making Fun of 2012
Happy New Year to you!
2011 flew by at a cracking pace and to repeat something you’ve heard many times already – “it went so fast!” Thank you for viewing, commenting and buying my art during the year – thanks also to all the Bubblers creating cool and inspiring art to enjoy.
Inspiration was my theme last year, and as with many things, when you become conscious of something, all of sudden it appea…

Something great to share - 50 Things Every Creative Should Know
I stumbled across this link the other day called The 50 Things Every Creative Should Know and thought it was too good not to share with the other creative people I know (and don’t know!) on RedBubble.
Established on the premise of helping new graduates adjust to the professional world there’s plenty of insights that apply to a much wider audience.
I hope you find some great tips among…
A year in review (!) Hello 2011
First of all, Happy New Year to everyone! I hope you’ve all had a great Festive Season and are ready to kick off 2011.
Thanks to everyone that’s supported me over the year with comments, favourites, votes, maintaining great groups on redbubble, and also those that have purchased prints, calendars and cards – especially the anonymous buyer that purchased a bundle of my cards shortly before Christm…
Back on deck - to a RB home page feature!
Well, it’s been a busy few weeks since I’ve been on redbubble. I’ve had quite a successful business trip in New Zealand – not only kicking goals in the meeting and networking sense, but also brought home some images that do a pretty good job of capturing the beauty and atmosphere of a number of places in the North and South Islands.
Stay tuned in coming weeks as I work thr…
Challenges, features, views and an avatar
Not that long ago 4000 views was an achievement and one or two featured images now and then was pretty good. Well it’s been a pretty action packed month, considering the ‘view meter’ has gone up to 6000 now and 12 of my images have been featured in a range of groups including one challenge winner which is now the avatar of Beautiful Garbage.
Thanks to all the Bubblers out there that have viewed, …
Copyright and fine print
While I was flicking though the April 2009 edition of Australian Home Beautiful, published by Pacific Magazines, for some reason I read though the magazine credits and discovered what I thought was a bit of a bombshell…

Couldn't resist
As noted in my last journal entry, I have put the brakes on expanding my redbubble portfolio for the last few weeks while I’ve been checking out all the wonderful groups and artworks on redbubble. I’m sure you’re already aware, but there really is a heap of nice stuff to look at, consider, and spark a little inspiration.
Consequently with so many images and artworks as food for thought, I couldn’…
