  • This is a picture from my day job. The red balls are grass pollen, and the tubes from them are growing down into the flower to fertilise the ovary. To get ready for the photo took some serious effort to get the timing right, then use of chemicals to stain the pollen red, then actually get to the microscope to take the photo. After reading in the forums about the paths people have taken to become artists, and thinking of my desire to be one (as in, to be able to spend all my time on creative pursuits), I began to think about what skills I have already from my current path. My challenge was to find a creative application of those skills, because I’m not in a position to give up work. Yet :) I’ve been using photography to record my work for many years, so that was the first and most obvious answer. I just thought I’d throw that up for interest, as it’s not the sort of thing that you would want framed in your living room I’m sure LOL!

  • Skeleton of desert plant. Studio still life. Photo based mixed medium image. Extreme image softness, textures, and grain.

  • When I was preparing to shoot this nude series I knew I didn’t want to create images to stimulate the male libido. I was seeking a psychologically expressive female figure for myself. Some of the feminist literature that has influenced my thought in this area is a book by Linda Nochlin “Women, Art, And Power And Other Essays”. In this book she reaches an all time high in feminist rhetoric when she photographs a male nude holding a tray of banana’s held at knee height….!! So refreshing! / _______________ / This Image “Imprinted Woman”. Photo montage printed on Kinwashi. Three images montaged in Photoshop: Nude, Chinese calligraphy pattern, and cut radish (the vegetable) pattern. The final image was printed on an Inkaid prepped Kinwashi paper. 11’’ x 14”. The radish “paper” is very interesting; a small sheet about 6×8 inches of thinly sliced radish rounds pressed together into a translucent sheet. I found it at Hiromi Paper in Santa Monica http://www.hiromipaper.com/store/home.php.

  • made with apophysis and photoshop

  • This is obviously not an original idea, and I want to thank both ECGardner and Angelique Brunas for their works along these lines that motivated me to explore my own creativity. I hope they do not mind my using their work as a basis for my inspiration, and I am still working to achieve the balance, beauty, and artistry they have exhibited through their respective nature based collages! I will give folks a while to guess what the various panes are comprised of, they should be pretty easy to figure out, later I will insert the proper descriptions of their contents. As always I can not say often enough how wonderful the Redbubble community is and how happy I am to have found it during it’s infancy so that I may grow along with it into a more complete and accomplished artist! / / / / Portfolio Areas / / Tigers / Wildlife / Macro / Landscape / Birds / Abstracts / Cats~wild and domestic

  • Predator (bobcat) + Prey (rabbit) = Food chain Original image taken at Dickinson Park Zoo. /

  • In Berlin Steglitz (Germany)... The colors of feathers are produced by the presence of pigments such as melanins (browns, blacks, greys), carotenoids (reds, yellows, orange), psittacofulvins (unique red pigments found in some parrots) and porphyrins (such as the green turacoverdin of Turacos) or more often by feather structure. Structural coloration is involved in the production of most greens, blues, iridescent colors, ultraviolet reflectance and in the enhancement of pigmentary colors. In some birds, the feather colors may be created or altered by uropygial gland secretions. The yellow bill colors of many hornbills are produced by preen gland secretions. Other differences that may only be visible in the ultraviolet region have been suggested but studies have failed to find evidence. Uropygial oil secretion may also have an inhibitory effect on feather bacteria. A bird’s feathers undergo wear and tear and are replaced periodically during its life through molting. New feathers are formed through the same follicle from which the old ones were fledged. The presence of melanin in feathers increases their resistance to abrasion. Melanin based feathers were however found to be faster degraded by bacteria than those with carotenoid pigments. This has led to the suggestion that Gloger’s rule, the observation that birds from more humid regions tend to be darker may be related to the increased bacterial load and the selection for greater melanin. The evolution of coloration is based on sexual selection and it has been suggested that carotenoid based pigments may have evolved since they are likely to be more honest signals of fitness since they are derived from special diets. In India, feathers of the Indian Peacock have been used in traditional medicine for snakebite, infertility and coughs.

  • anoter attempt at changing the background. this one is for JD! I really like this one JD!

  • You’ve heard their strange atmospheric black mindscapes at myspace.com/mergeintostripes and http://blackholedisco.blogspot.com/2007/12/merge-into-stripes-to-communicate-with.html – you’ve seen their synapse-warping videos at youtube.com/IWML… now, you can wear their art on your chest. Taken from the album art of their first double-disc extravaganza “To Communicate With Others Of Its Species”, The IWML’s favourite miskatonic imagineers have created a shirt that, through the extensive and intensive use of hypergeometry, not only opens up Pandimensional Gates and tinkers with the Weave of SurRealSpace, but looks pretty damn cool too.

  • Close up of a Dandelion flower head. Black & white picture.

  • RB’s challenge “Substance of things not seen” inspired many questions of how to convey and/or observe what we cannot see, let alone create a piece of art. / Then, while listening to our CD player shuffle, this song played…Colors of the Wind / You think you own whatever land you land on / Earth is just a dead thing you can claim / But I know every rock and tree and creature / Has a life, has a spirit, has a name / You think the only people who are people / Are the people who look and think like you / But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger / You learn things you never knew / You never knew / Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon? / Or ask the grinning bobcat why he grinned / Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains? / Can you paint with all the colors of the wind? / Can you paint with all the colors of the wind? / Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest / Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth / Come roll in all the riches all around you / And for once never wonder what they’re worth / The rainstorm and the river are my brothers / And the heron and the otter are my friends / And we are all connected to each other / In a circle in a hoop that never ends / Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon? / or let the eagle tell you where hes been / can you sing with all the voices of the mountain / can you paint with all the colors of the wind / can you paint with all the colors of the wind / How high does the sycamore grow / If you cut it down, then you’ll never know / And you’ll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon / For whether we are white or copper – skinned / We just sing with all the voices of the mountain / Need to paint with all the colors of the wind / You can own the earth and still / All you’ll own is earth until / You can paint with all colors of the wind. Not leaving well enough alone, I ventured into googling and found an amazing photograph (hven.swarthmore.edu) of a Wind Bubble and began searching more of the Stellar Winds ~ this all seemed to fit, so I sketched a female figure being blown by the wind and layered it atop the Wind Bubble, editing a little more with the Redfield fractilius plug-in to bring the force of the wind alive with evidence of its power, though unseen… “Thought is the Wind, knowledge the sail, and mankind the vessel. ” August Hare

  • featured in The World as We See it 10-03-2009 Edit from “Lost in Space” / / an attempt to make it fit the theme “sleep”, please tell me your honest thoughts! / I so appreaciate all your help!!! / Thank you and happy Weekend!!! XXX! MUSIC Stars shining bright above you / Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you” / Birds singing in the sycamore tree / Dream a little dream of me / Say “Night-ie night” and kiss me / Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me / While I’m alone and blue as can be / Dream a little dream of me / Stars fading but I linger on, dear / Still craving your kiss / I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear / Just saying this / Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you / Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you / But in your dreams whatever they be / Dream a little dream of me

  • A cluster of Biscuspinor eggs floats in the gaseous atmosphere of this planet. We can also see a few Aethroa worms that seem to be companion organisms to the Biscuspinor. / The Biscuspinor eggs seem to carry these ring-like objects with them. The reason for this is unknown. Another oddity is that although we have been on this planet for two days now we have never seen what a hatched Biscuspinor looks like. We can only speculate at this stage. Further biological research will have to wait. We cannot stay here for much longer as oxygen supplies seem to be rapidly depleting and a peculiar mould is appearing everywhere inside the ship. / The planet is inhospitable. The atmosphere is extremely toxic. / Wait a minute . . . as I write this there is a change to my skin structure . . . / message ends message ends message ends / Created in GroBoto and Photoshop. / Music by Lustmorde.
