This lighthouse is on the Oregon side of the Columbia River. About a mile or so to the north, on the Washington side, is North Head Lighthouse. Neither is visible from the other, and both have proven to be very necessary to safe navigation. The waters in the area of the river coming to the ocean are treacherous.

Pastel, conte crayon, chalk, charcoal on brown butcher paper. / I remember so distinctly the moment I did this. I was living in my old carriage house in Brooklyn, and had a wonderful studio on the ground floor. I was in love with somebody who wasn’t being attentive enough to suit me and driving me nuts. I had been running in circles, upset and in a rage, screaming, crying, ready to kill, and I thought it can’t be me… WHAT IS HIS PROBLEM? he should be all over me! do I look funny?...and well…what the hell do I actually look like? / So I pulled up a chair under a spotlight, set up a big mirror about ten feet away, and hit the paper running with a handful of colors. I think there was something seriously wrong with the guy.

©2007-2008 Aimee Stewart, Foxfires – please see my CC Terms of Use before considering using this image for any personal or commercial use http://foxfires.deviantart.com/journal/15905899/ / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- There are so many familiar sayings out there about ‘Time’ as we know it. Time heals all wounds. Time flies when you’re having fun. Time stands still. Time waits for no one. If I could turn back the hands of Time. Frozen in Time. Timeless…. you get the idea. Well, I wanted to create a series that perhaps captured the essence of these things, in relation to human emotion. And so my Time series was born. I know in my heart what each of them means, but I did not name them anything specific, so that the viewer could make up their own mind as to the meaning of each piece. I think that is something unique to every individual. So…my heartfelt thanks for continuing to watch and support my artistic endeavors. It feeds the fire that burns and inspires. / Aimee

what is the point of telling you anything / you never listen to me / you only hear the bad, the worst / but the good news? / you don’t care for them at all why? am i nothing to you / can’t you understand me / can’t you try, at least / do i mean nothing to you? why can’t you feel happy for me? i fought hard on my own / i’m slowly reaching my goals / accomplishing them slowly but why… / why do you feel nothing for me? uploaded this a few days ago actually.. just didn’t have it published till now.. you know.. that feeling.. when you’ve accomplished something, but no one seems to give a damn? it feels like sorta.. like having acid pouring out of my heart instead of blood.. running through my veins, burning me from the inside.. tears.. tears burn my eyes.. so much, it’s as if i’m crying blood.. how can i not turn into a hermit? if i retreat from people.. maybe i won’t need them so much. i won’t care for them. then i won’t feel pain if they never care or love or feel happy for me, hey?

a Digital Painting, done entirely in ArtRage, using my tablet. I dont like to comment my paintings.. i am not used to it. i feel, i am not good at it.. i feel tongue-tied…. i prefer to let people look and find their own way of interpretation… i dont want to interefere with the viewers thoughts and emotions when looking at my art. so.. i wont say anything to this image.. but i think it does speak for itself…

Printing Issues !

Sorry guys this is my third journal for the evening but thought that you might be interested in this ! l recently purchased some prints from RB,l finally splashed out to see what they would look like blown up ! l received them last week and was so excited when l opened them ,l had also purchased some cards which arrived with them. l opened the package to find all my images were so dark l could hardly see them….. instant disappointment,l contacted RB and they have been very helpful in that they are reprinting but this is reply l got from them “Hi Trudi Sorry for the late reply. / The issue here is that the images on RB are too dark to begin with. A print will always come out a step darker than how it appears on a backlit computer monitor, so it’s not really useful comparing the two. What I suggest you do is go back to those images and lighten them, then re-upload them to their edit screens and once that’s done, we’ll put a reprint through for you” / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- / Was l naive to think that the images should look close to what l was seeing on here ? l suggested maybe RB put out a newsletter warning us that the image we see is’nt necessarily what we will get ? just a thought,but l have had no acknowledgement about that from them, l will be choosing all my cards from now on in regards to brightness …......... Have a great Evening /morning/afternoon Trudi

MY PERSONAL STANCE ON SOME (LIMITED) RED BUBBLE POLICY
by DragonFlyerFirstly, I wish to apologise to you, my friends, for not keeping up with your comments on my work and replying to you as I would normally…
Firstly, I wish to apologise to you, my friends, for not keeping up with your comments on my work and replying to you as I would normally try to do. Unfortunately, my attention has been dragged away from the ‘art’ part of the community here at RB, to more of a ‘huge family blow-up explosion’.... I am also very tired as I slept extremely little last night. I am also aware that Peter the Administrator must be in a very similar state, as he was also up extremely late last night. I hope many of you are aware of the incident that has provoked this. Helen Bascom has – in the time I have been here on RB – come to be my friend. My very good friend. What happened to her has upset me greatly. I did not sleep much last night. But – for me – there is an even larger issue at stake here than the summary deletion of Helen’s account from Red Bubble, without her having the chance to put her version of events. The issue at stake here is that Helen’s account was deleted summarily – with as far as I have been able to ascertain – NO INVESTIGATION of the circumstances – solely on the basis of a ‘report as inappropriate / personally abusive’ made by a third party who had absolutely NO direct involvement in the events or comments he / she was reporting! This reflects an ‘apparent’ zero tolerance’ policy here at RB for ‘personal abuse’... Yes, I agree, this sounds very good. Personal abuse should not be tolerated. However – this incident clearly highlights that – unlike some issues such as the potential for child pornography, where it is very easy to draw a straight line in the sand regarding who, at what age is or is not a ‘child’, the definition of what is considered ‘personal abuse’ vs the definition of describing someone’s creative work as personally offensive may NOT be so clearly defined. In this case, neither the person who made the original comment on Helen’s journal, nor Helen herself, felt the need to ‘report to RB’. Yes, RB DOES tell us to ‘report’ – do NOT go getting mixed up in arguments yourself – but – to my knowledge this issue was ended! Neither Helen, nor miron, had continued any form of offensive behaviour toward each other regarding this particular exchange. In the past, I myself have reported private bmails sent to me using the exact same words Helen wrote in her thread. The RB response to my complaint at the time was along the lines of “this appears to be dying down – let it be – if there’s any more report again and we’ll act”. At the time I was extremely upset. However, now, in retrospect, I can see that this response was correct! The matter DID end there of it’s own accord. The matter between Helen and miron may also most likely have ended right there of it’s own accord, and there would now be NO pages and pages of forum arguments that have gone WAY out of control, there would be no people favouriting any and all Tees with statements of F#$ You an dF#$% Off they can find, there would be no people removing all of their works for sale on RB, there would be no people deleting their accounts at RB and leaving in anger and disgust that Helen was given no chance to defend herself against this report by AN UNKNOWN AND UNNAMED THIRD PARTY WHO – for whatever personal reasons of their own, REINFLAMED a probably dead issue for their own personal reasons! In the 9-10 months I have been a member of Red Bubble I have come to greatly respect the motives and capacities of the RB management and staff team. Firstly, when I joined, this was my very first step back into a world from which I had been a virtual recluse for 7-8 years. I was very scared. It was things such as RB’s firm NSFW filter policy, which protected me from having to unintentionally view work I could have found extremely distressing, as well as their firm ‘play nice’ policy which enabled me to feel ‘safe enough’ to finally build up the nerve to join and take my first steps back into the world. I am, and will remain, incredibly grateful to Red Bubble, it’s management and members, for welcoming me – safely – here. Red Bubble has – since that time, provided me with the most wonderfully supportive community – as well as the opportunity of for the first time in my life ever making FRIENDS! This personal and emotional development and strengthening has also allowed in me a development and strengthening of my art, and my sense and confidence in myself as an artist. For this I also am, and will always remain incredibly grateful. I was extremely happy and proud of Peter (and the whole management team’s) response to the great outpourings of emotion over the issue of ‘porn’ on RB some months ago. They took a firm stance that in my eyes was fair, and manageable to police fairly. Peter has stated in one of the forum threads earlier today that the team needs a chance to assess what has happened and formulate a response – maybe even a change in policy – as it is appropriate. I agree they need the time and opportunity to do this. I hope that, in assessing these events, they will manage to see that such a punitive ‘zero tolerance’ policy on an issue that is NOT clearly black and white, that has MANY areas of grey in the HUGE domain between an artwork I may find personally offensive, and the aims of the person who created the work in either deliberately personally offending me or not – or the other way around… An artwork I may create to express an emotion or concept extremely close and important to me may, without any prior knowledge or intention on my part, clearly inflame another member. We may exchange our views rather forcefully in a comment thread. WE may – between ourselves, be totally satisfied that each has had his / her say – the matter is now closed. / Current RB policy allows – in any such situation – to ANY member of RB – the same result as happened to Helen Bascom. The immediate FULL DELETION of her account solely on the report of a third party with no examination of what their personal agenda may be in the making of a report about an incident that does not concern them. Any policy that allows such a punitive response to any third party report – with no investigation and NO opportunity for those actually involved in the event to explain themselves and the context in which the reported event took place is totally open to manipulation by anyone with an underlying malignant agenda against any of the participants to act out their own ‘vengeance’ with no fear of assessment of whether their complaint is fair and just. I stand by my assessment that such policy – totally open to such malignant manipulation (whether that occurred in this particular case or not!) is BAD policy. Peter – and all your team – I have grown to respect you all and the true motives you have in creating this COMMUNITY in this time I have been here. You have shown that you ARE capable of taking the hard decisions that must inevitably arise in managing a community as diverse as this. I will continue to actively take part in the ‘artists’ community’ aspect of this site, as I believe your motives for establishing it have been good, and I have great respect for what you have achieved. Also – I have to justify to myself why I am not taking the complete and final step of deleting my own account here in support of my friend, as others of Helen’s and my friends have done. I will miss them greatly here, though I am sure we will not lose contact in ‘the world’. I truly hope that, when given the time and opportunity to calmly analyse what has occurred you will be able to enstate a policy that calls for mandatory review of the details of instances such as this reported to management in this way. I also truly hope I will not be even more hurt and disappointed than I already have been this past day…... You have not given me reason to believe I would be…. Kallena xx
