Resign! Now!

This child watched through a broken window as we worked inside. It’s times like this when the natural, uncontrived symbolism of circumstance just presents itself to you and all you have to do is click. There was not pretence, no staging, no crap. Just reality. It still engages me now. Look at his eyes. What is he thinking? He’s aching. He is full on aching. How can I help them more, how can I help them more, how can I help them more… Please give if you can or pass it on to someone else. That’s giving too. All proceeds to charity. NOW AVAILABLE AS A CHRISTMAS CARD! /

I wanted 1942 to serve as an experiment, questioning what stereotype if any surrounded the ‘skinhead.’ Within days I received comments of ‘racist’ and ‘Nazi’ signifying prejudice against a shaven head, when in modern day society diversity is usually praised and encouraged. The origin of the term ‘skinhead’ is not rooted in racism, the term being corrupted in the 1970’s by the neo-nazi movement. The term actually stems from the Jamaican skinheads such as Bunny Wailer, who populated Reggae in the1960’s, some decade previous. By 1968/69, the ‘skinhead’ wasn’t just a hairstyle but a way of life. To these working class people, cleanliness, stylish clothes and good music were dominant. The increasing popularity of Ska music, a branch of reggae bred the skinhead in their straight jeans, large boots, white shirts, braces and nylon or leather jackets and were regularly seen at Judge Dread gigs. Doc Marten, Ben Sherman, and Vespa scooters were typical designers of the ‘skinhead’ movement, which dwindled in the mid 70’s. This is around the time the neo-nazi movement became prominent, as the ‘mod generation’ became divided and those racist, political hating, violent youths were the new face, the new stereotype. They popularised themselves throughout the 80’s and 90’s with bands such as ‘Skrewdriver’ and were akin to increased violence on Adolf Hitler’s birthday. The number of ‘skinheads’ in Britain today is in decline, as in essence the skinhead is a youth organisation for the youth. Thus upon reaching full maturity, starting a family and encompassing different values the need to be in such a group no longer exists and without the experience and knowledge of older members their ‘skinhead’ values are degenerate. This is why I felt my experiment was necessary. Would the youth of day, born after the domination of the neo-nazi still be aware of their values and the attributes, which contribute to their stereotype? The answer lies within you the spectator. Consider what you first felt upon viewing 1942. Did it bring back fond memories of dancing to reggae, Bob Marley and the ‘Chelsea haircut’ or did it make you envisage violent racists? Movements begin, grow and they pass. The real reason the ‘Mods’ shaved their head was to avoid lice, for hygiene. Surely the time close cut hair symbolising a racist has passed. This was a series i took a while back for a project i was doing on fashion and surrealism I must have took around 30 or so photographs to get the best images at different stages. / to take these shots i used a canon 20d propped up on a tripod with a self timer.

Sprawled Traintrack – Dissecting Your Imagination…. a few titles came to mind. Combining illustration and photography to push an idea to the extreme. Really happy with the way the light works off the jeans. I was actually trvelling through Italy at the time and in all the supermarkets were heaps of raw meat, slami, proscuitto etc on display, so I wanted to do a tongue in cheek combination of my environment at the time, thus combined a not so realsitic salami shot I took in a supermarket witht the body and traintracks. Lots of fun!

I don’t know that man.He doesn’t talk ,walk ,hear,see…he ’s closed to the world.His wife comes every day ,she’s younger than him and I can see a lot of affection in her eyes but everybody knows she has somebody else in her life.She puts a little hat on his head ,cover him with something warm and put him on the balcony,even if it’s cold outside .One day at the beginning of my work I went to get him for supper ,the hat was covering his eyes and since he couldn’t move,he looked like a Mexican taking a nap …I smiled but in the same time I couldn’t help myself thinking how much he must be raging inside cut from the world like this …in fact I was raging inside for being so helpless toward that man. / posted later …. / He died a few weeks after I took this shot,both hands never openned….....Gigi

Where Shadows Cry she came to a place where shadows cry / silenced tongue sings no relief, no sigh / draws only sorrow nigh steps unseen on a fogged covered ground / a broken heart beat, the only sound / solace sought but not found playing where the shadows hide / staying where the shadows chide a cutting blade lashes at her soul / it bleeds her heart, taking on control / her inner light it stole a searing scream begging for release / the red drops fall, the pain will not cease / sting of wounds brings no peace falling where the shadows dwell / calling where the shadows yell now a calmness seed drops in her head / a ray of strength leading heart, it said / come follow me instead some scars are left where anger was placed / in her mind’s eye, some sanity disgraced / bitter lessons now faced burning from the shadows rip / turning from the shadows grip Author: Roger Sampson

Perfection - "The Final Cut"- Sydney Harbour Morn - Moods Of A City # 32 - THe HDR Series
by Philip JohnsonUS$4.28–US$114.00
BEST VIEWED LARGER Big City ,even Bigger sky, taken at sunrise on a simply perfect morning, just look at that sky Berrys Bay is located on the Northern shore of Sydney Harbour . The harbour has many bays and tributaries. Berrys Bay /Balls Head Reserve can be reached by train from the city, you alight at Waverton Railway Station. The former BP Berry’s Bay bulk fuel storage and distribution terminal is located on the cliffs and foreshore area of Balls Head/Waverton Peninsula approximately 1.6 km northwest of the Sydney CBD. The site was operated by BP Australia as a fuel storage and distribution facility from the early 1920s. BP’s operations ceased in 1993 and the tanks were demolished in the mid 1990s. Premier Bob Carr announced in 1997 that this site, together with the Coal Loader and Caltex Sites on the other side of the peninsula would be preserved as Public Open Space It now has been returned to the public, as part of Sydney Harbour National Park, as you can see it is a magical site with wonderful panoramic views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge , Sydney Opera House (you can see under the bridge) the Sydney Skyline. Thank god governments make some good decisions returning open spaces to the people not the Developers. And yes England did send convicts to Australia for punishment Equipment used : Nikon D300, Nikon 18-200mm lens, no filters and processed using Photomatix My continuing journey into HDR continues !

Creating Landscape Thumbnails That ARE NOT Cut Short
by Helen Bascom KMAA while back I linked a few landscape oriented works to thumbnails in my portfolio only to discover that they were cut short on the right…
A while back I linked a few landscape oriented works to thumbnails in my portfolio only to discover that they were cut short on the right. I like to show what my work looks like framed because it shows the viewer how it will appear when they buy it. :) I knew there had to be a way, and I found one! There may be a better, faster or more convenient way to do it, but for right now I think this is it. PART I Create a new folder on your computer and call it something easy to remember, like thumbnails, or any name that is easy for you to find. This is the first place you are going to store tiny images of your framed work. Click on the BUY/PREVIEW button for the landscape oriented work of art in your portfolio that you want display in the image description. Select Framed Print and chose your layout. I like the Large selection because it shows the work at it’s largest possible display. Select the frame and mat color you like. Once you are satisfied with the appearance of your framed work, RIGHT CLICK on the image and select the SAVE AS option. Save the thumbnail in the folder you created to store your thumbnail images. PART II Open the thumbnail in your photo editing software and resize it to 1 inch width. the height will default to approximately 0.89 inch or thereabout. Save the resized thumbnail. PART III You will need an off-site web location to save your thumbnails. I chose www.flikr.com because they have the option of making your files private and they have lots of free storage space. You won’t need much space since you are storing thumbnails and not full size images. Upload your thumbnail to your off-site web storage address. PART IV Here is where you need to have two tabs (or windows) open in your browser. Open your “art” tab in RedBubble and select the image where you want to place the thumbnail in the description of the work. Place your cursor in the description box where you want the image to appear. View your off-site thumbnail in the second tab (or window). Right Click on the thumbnail and select properties. Copy the web address. Now, Where your cursor is located do this: 1. type an exclamation point(!) / 2. right click and select “paste” / 3. type an exclamation point (!) That will place the small thumbnail on your page (keep your “edit image” open and don’t save yet) . Now if you want to link that small image to the BUY/PREVIEW page, do the following right next to the last exclamation point with no spaces: 4. RIGHT CLICK on BUY/PERVIEW and open in a new tab or window. / 5. Select FRAMED PRINT / 6. RIGHT CLICK on the web address at the top of the page and select COPY / 7. Go back to the tab or window where your open “edit image” is located and place the cursor at the end of the last exclamation point / 8. type a colon (:) and then right click and “paste” the web address there / 9. select “save changes” and then . . . TA DA you have inserted a linked image of your landscape oriented art and it fits perfectly. HERE IS WHAT THE FINAL LINKED IMAGE TEXT SHOULD LOOK LIKE (WITHOUT SPACES): !http://farm3.static.flickr.com /2254/2051375013_75e5217a47_m.jpg ! / :http ://www.redbubble.com/products/configure/1159808 Here’s the result: COMPANION PART V Do this for each photo link you want to place in your profile. I use this for landscape oriented cards and posters as well

This is not my original sketch….I did it from a visual I saw somewhere…..but I carved it out of wood and its an A1 size. Which means I had to cut this piece of wood FORVER! In fact I am going to take a photograph of the woodcut so you can see it.

Yes, this is a lino cut, if you can believe it. I have to try and get a little simpler with the cutting. I spent weeks on this.

I found this log and wondered where it had stood, or was it moved there, I looked around for a deliberate composition to show the tree (in the BG) and what it once was
