Traffic to the Bubble
It has been what seems like an eternity since I have been able to spend any time on redbubble. For the past few weeks, I’ve been working on two main goals. New artwork and networking on the Internet. This is what I’ve found. Red Bubble remains the best site for quality framed artwork and cards. No other site, which I’m sure they are out there, seems to offer the same features. As for shir…
Web Site Bubbling
After lengthy investigation into web advertising and marketing stratagem I have realized that there are a lot more sites for artwork than I ever dreamed possible. Since many of the comment left, so graciously, by others have one main message they repeat…. my creations would make great tattoo designs. So I have found the main suggestion by and far is EXPOSURE. Now. Since almost everyone wh…
Bubble Web Links
While looking around at other artist’s work, I was surprised to see that one guy has a link to go to his own web site. That’s pretty cool. I knew rb was pretty accommodating…. but wow! This is the first time I’ve come across this practice and find it really cool. The artist in question seems to either have a wicked sense of humor or one REALLY BIG ego. Either way, maybe that’s what it ta…
Stealing Your Artwork
When I started creating my artwork many, many people told me that my designs would make great tattoos. They still do. Although I am investigating the possiblities of creating what is called ‘flash art’ for commercial application of my art, one question seemed to haunt the back of my mind. Would/ could someone just download my work and use it anyway? If an individual wanted to do such a thin…
Faux Pas Bubble Style
Finally some of my new work is posted! Many creations are still in my portfolio waiting to be scanned, touched up, formatted, and uploaded. Whew! Sounds more complicated than it really is! Anyway…. I do worry a bit that some artists here might see my uploads as redundant, but I can’t find any other way to make the shirt color inversions work. Yes, the drawings are the same, but look terr…
Double Double Bubble Trouble
Well here they are. At first I felt a little akward using the same drawings…. but once I started reworking the color scheme, it was like putting new images in the gallery. Although I wanted to put a couple of more drawings online, another bubblemate suggested I invert the color scheme. I looked at my clothing and was startled to realize that if someone chose a black shirt, the image was se…
Not Popping MY Bubble
Despite the rant of an obviously major member… I made my first sale!!! My comment on this exposition of theirs was indeed sincere. In so far that I do not plan on posting a journal everytime a design sells, but WOW!! It’s nice to have your work appreciated in so far that someone wants to purchase it. The feeling is GREAT and I am soooo pleased. Nobody is popping this bubble! lol kk
While Inside the Bubble
Just a quick note to whoever it may concern. The world has a pretty negative opinion on the United States these days. Probably justified, but one of the best things about this site is that we all leave behind our opinions and bias’ to relate as individuals. It is disheartening to read that artists like Kate O Brian catches negativity when sharing her artwork. Within the realm of decency and…
Freedom of Speech and Opinion
Boy has the home page changed. I don’t know if I like it or not. It has changed alot from the format I first loved. Change is inevitable….but…. at what expense? It would only be fair I guess for everyone who comes here to “get a feel” for its presentation. Prejudging something or someone before giving them a chance is fundamentally wrong… something I try to not let myself do too ofte…
Bubbling With Happiness
There are some really cool people here on this site. I probably say that far too often… but hey, journals are for one’s own thoughts! I can’t help it… I just haven’t ran across any meanspirited or rude people yet, just nice helpful ones like Peter and others. The staff must be doing a good job to have such a wonderful place to converse, display your work, and just have fun!! Ms. German’s…
