Following several knock backs and aborted attempts to gain access to Paul Vanzella I have finally managed to jimmy the lock and enter the building that houses his workshop. It’s quite dirty to look at, yet remains aesthetically pleasing at the same time (much like a lot of his work). I have no doubt that I’m going in the right direction. There are bright flashes of light from the other end of this cavernous room, a cackling laughter can be heard along with a drone of generators / I’m entering the inner sanctum, the magic place that Paul (the Van Man) Vanzella creates his masterpieces. It’s hard to get into the corner, the bric a brack thickens as you get closer, then after squeezing between a digger and a airplane fuselage (that I’m sure I have seen before), I’m there! Blinking in the full glare of the spotlights lighting this whole area! / “WHO DARES DISTURB ME?” booms a voice from the shadows, I can just make out the outline of a figure in the lights. It looks like one of the aliens from Close encounters!!! Shock horror – Paul Vanzella is not human, hold on a moment, that’s hardly news is it, I mean we have all seen his work! / From behind me I hear movement, like the wind through silk curtains, suddenly I realise that I’m not here in the light on my own! Oh no the Van-man is in the middle of a shoot, that means if I turn round I’ll get an eyeful of Jo (No Clothes) O’Brien. / Trying to ‘nonchalantly’ turn around, I manage to avoid the expected whiplash and there in front of me stands No Clothes O’Brien ! In the nip , her birthday suit, wearing just a smile! Do I need to go on? / She looks less than happy at me being there! “how dare you” she squeeks, “we were just in the middle of recreating the Venus Di Milo! But we were going to call it the Jo Di Milo” ahh that explains the strange yellow sheen to Miss O’Brien’s skin, and here was me thinking it was jaundice. She makes no move to hide herself, instead she hisses, “best look elsewhere four eyes or I’ll turn those glasses your wearing into contact lenses!” she’s not joking there’s a real violence in her you can see it in her eyes and the scabs on her knuckles! / Turning back was where I got the whiplash “just do exactly as I say and nobody will get hurt” she whispered into my ear “isn’t that right Pauly?” she cackled. The lights dimmed and I could make the Van Man out a little clearer, he wasn’t an alien he was chained to the camera, in fact 5 camera’s hung round his neck making him visibly stoop, his ankles were chained together…a look of the defeated in his eyes he mouthed “Help Me…”. / So there we have it, Paul Vanzella is being held against his will and forced to take pictures of Jo ‘No Clothes’ O’Brien (his number one fan!), in her dastardly scheme to take over the bubble with the power and volume of her image. Oh the inhumanity of it! PLEASE NOTE THAT THE EPISODES FOLLOW ON FROM EACH OTHER IN A SOAP OPERA STYLE. WHILST EACH EPISODE SHOULD BE A STORY IN ITSELF IT IS HOPED THEY THREAD TOGETHER. THERE ARE MORE EPISODES TO READ, JUST CLICK HERE! SOAP BUBBLE please note that all comments are completely fictitious and intended to be humorous. The journal relates to my interpretation of the art and to stories that I make up about the artist as a bubble characters rather than focusing on the real people behind the art

As I sink in my chair, strong coffee in hand, wishing it was something more potent…. I wonder if any of you really need to hear my story of disaster, but then I smile and realize I have an important message to share…. You simply must NOT lose yourself in the bubble for too long, or too often. / Life does have habit of sneaking up on you, or past you when you are missing in action…..(or engrossed in the bubble). / It can even be dangerous for health, home and sanity…. / I just learned that the hard way….. Here I sat, several hours ago, morning coffee in hand, the kids were on the school bus, the animals fed, a load of washing was buzzing away in the machine and I felt safe to “indulge” ...... / aaah….even the noises in the laundry, the animal sounds, the bird song could not shake my focus on some of your wonderful images…... and writing my messages back to you…. / UNTIL… / crash…. / bang… / holy shite! / on my front verandah, the sound of hooves….BIG ones! (now I have little horses who often would climb up on my old wooden verandah and clatter around to get my attention, or look for treats, but this was way too big for them!) I carefully open my front door, and there staring me in the face – a big black cow’s butt…..well, a steer’s rear end, to be exact. / This bloody great thing with his herd had wandered into my front yard demolishing everything in sight, and he, with the huge stick on his neck (put there because he kept getting through fences and I can tell you, it obviously hasn’t stopped him!) had decided to climb up the steps and wander casually along my verandah….eating my pot plants…. / So there he was in the sunshine, casually gazing out at his lesser buddies from the height of my humble verandah….. I knew if I scared him from behind like this, he would smash the glass table and chairs, the kids’ bikes and the multitude of potted plants and fall of the high end of the verandah (I live on the slope of a hill) so I thought I might go around and climb out my bedroom window and chase him quietly (ha ha) back to the opening where he might “get off”..... I decided to grab the broom from the laundry to help and as I stepped out to the back half of my house, my feet went ankle deep in water. / The whole room was flooded…. a hose had come unplugged, and both cycles of the washing machine dumped out on the laundry floor…..and you know the best thing about living in an old farm house? / When someone builds on a back room, they do it on the cheap, nobody bothers with a spirit level, so the floors slope the wrong way…..the drain holes are all uphill, and the water floods downhill. / again I say “holy you know what!!” So there was the kids playroom, carpet and couch, the bathroom, the sunroom and laundry all under water, and it was still flowing back through to the rest of my house. Did I use a four letter word? / who? / me? / (No I used dozens! AND made up some new ones….) The bovine was forgotten, I grabbed the broom and started swishing the water back towards any opening where i might get it out of those rooms. Grabbing clothes and clean washing to be folded, and kids toys and books up out of the water…... / aaaah you get the picture. / OF course the water just kept flooding back….. living on a hill has its perks ha ha…...but for this I would need to turn the house around. I wondered if I could knock a hole in the downhill wall and just let it out that way….. / but NO… / it had to be mopped and swished and cleaned up, every damn last drop. On one frantic rush through the house to get more towels and mops, I spied the RB screen waiting on my computer and just thought… / “damn!” Meantime, going into all those dark places under cupboards and behind things, it washed out numerous little inhabitants, the eightlegged kind, so I had a bit of a flood of red back spiders emerging too….. so….that just made it all the more fun. / Living dangerously …. Two hours later, aching back, wet feet, wet everydamnthing…. I drag out the carpets and furniture onto the back lawn, to see the bloody steer’s buddies in my back yard now, eating and shiiitting under my clothesline…. / Where’s the dog when you need her? / (oh of course, running under the house with the wet shoes I put outside to dry, isn’t she!) Then to the front verandah which now has broken boards and the scene of destruction where the clever beastie jumped off the verandah and took all the ceramic pots with him…..smasho! / How can one gentle animal create such a mess ….. (but I shan’t complain because this kind animal saved his bowel movement till he ran off down the track…..phew! mighty thoughtful…..) So…I tell you, next time you sit and indulge at Redbubble, bear in mind that life still goes on around you, and it can catch you up and overtake you in a big bad way if you are not watching…...it can even smash up the front of your house, crap at the back of it and flood everything in between…. but hey, / I came back to Redbubble didn’t I !!!

If you can start the day without caffeine, / If you can get going without pep pills, / If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains, / If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles, / If you can eat the same food everyday and be grateful for it, / If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time, / If you can take criticism and blame without resentment, / If you can ignore a friend’s limited education and never correct him, / If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend, / If you can conquer tension without medical help, / If you can relax without liquor, / If you can sleep without the aid of drugs, / Then you are probably the family dog!!!!!!

I wanted to share a funny experience I had with my Brother-In-law back in 2005. / I also consider him one of my best friends. We always have fun whatever we do. Vincent Vartorella – who just joined redbubble a while back is my brother-in-law in case you don’t know. When we go places we love to take our cameras. It doesn’t matter where we go or what we are doing. I guess you could say we share the same interest in photography and enjoy it. / We screw around all time and we are always sneaking pictures of each other and having fun when the other isn’t looking. We probably have more pictures of each other than you could imagine and we just laugh. We went on a all day golf trip and I took my Sony Cybershot small camera with us, it was new at the time. / We used the heck out of that camera shooting every shot you could imagine. / It was a blast. We were heading to the 17th green and I said “Hey I have an idea, why don’t you go up on the green and I will hit a shot towards the green and we can see what it looks like on video. We never used the camera for video. So we wanted to see how the quality was. I dropped a ball about 100 yards from the green and he went and stood directly by the flag. / Of course he had to add his commentary to the shot which made this hilarious. Go Here / To see what happened. To this day we still laugh and can not believe this happened. / What are the odds? So one day I posted it on You Tube for fun. The funny part is its kind of popular I have a ton of hits on it.

Over the next few months I intend to take those willing to read, on a literary adventure through the bubble. As an investigative journalist and member of the bubble I will aim to place some meaning behind some of the more interesting and popular images on the bubble, I will endeavour to give the reader insight into such important questions as… • Is there a relationship going on between Paul Vanzella and Jo O’Brien / • Does Mel Brackstone wear waders all the time and does her tripod have crustaceans and seaweed on it / • Who would win the fight if Stuart Chapman and Mel Brackstone met on a beach? / • Flibble how does he do that? / • Deborah Parkin has she painted her house and family black and white on purpose I am sure that there will be more questions that I will investigate over time and if there are specific issues that you feel need answers then get in touch and I’ll see what I can do. please note that all comments are completely fictitious and intended to be humorous. The journal relates to my interpretation of the art and to stories that I make up about the artist as a bubble characters rather than focusing on the real people behind the art This has been inspired by a comment from Paul Vanzella relating to the comments that I have posted on several of his recent works – all of which I find truly astounding Andrew
I was going to write about my experience at the Paddington Markets...
I was going to write about my experience at the Paddington Markets after the first week but I though I’d wait till a month passed so that I had a better understanding of how it was going to be overall. Many people had said that it can be very up and down, and the were spot on. The biggest predicament so far has been where they place my stall. the first week there, I was in the ‘platinum’ area where much of the other arts and crafts are. it was a great vibe and the people around me were really friendly. I had a constant stream of interest and sold shirts and badges frequently. The 2nd and thirds week in contrast were not much fun. I was placed adjacent to the food area and on top of the playground. The smell of onion and screaming of kids was really not enjoyable and had a huge impact on the interest and frequency of sales. It was a little scary to get though half the day and not sell anything while watching people walk like zombies towards the irresistible smell of cooking sausage and onion. I made enough of a fuss to get placed back into the platinum area on the fourth week and it was back to where I feel I belong :) It a has so far been a lot of fun and very educational for me. I have said to a number of people that I was thinking about doing a masters at university that can cost upwards of $10,000, but then I decided why not instead invest into a small business idea that will more than likely make me work harder, teach me more, and at the very least earn back a few dollars. In all its a great way to spend my saturdays. My partner shannon is out there and we visit each other regularly and run away from our stall to have lunch together. She has been so helpful in helping teaching me the ins and outs of the markets and its funny to think the we are now “market honeys” Hope you enjoyed reading my account and if you get the chance come say hi! Scotty / Here is a picture of my stall. the Japanese privacy screens at the back really sets my little shirts shop apart / Here is a photo of some of the shirts, the middle 2 were from redbubble and I called them “One Offs” hehe. / I present my badges in muffin trays and have made a habit of buying 2 cupcakes in the morning. Its a great conversation starter and I get to eat them at the end of the day!

As a young minister, I was asked by a funeral director to hold a grave- / side service for a homeless man, with no family or friends. The funeral / was to be held at a cemetery way back in the country, and this man / would be the first to be laid to rest there. As I was not familiar with / the backwoods area, I became lost; and being a typical man did not stop / for directions. I finally arrived an hour late. I saw the backhoe and / the crew, who were eating lunch, but the hearse was nowhere in sight. I apologized to the workers for my tardiness and stepped to the side / of the open grave, where I saw the vault lid already in place. I / assured the workers I would not hold them up for long, but this was the / proper thing to do. The workers gathered around, still eating their / lunch. I poured out my heart and soul. As I preached the workers began to say ‘Amen ,’ ‘Praise the Lord,’ and / ‘Glory’! I preached and I preached, like I’d never preached before; / from Genesis all the way to Revelation. I closed the lengthy service with a prayer and walked to my car. As I / was opening the door and taking off my coat, I overheard one of the / workers saying to another, ‘I ain’t never seen anything like that / before in my life and I’ve been putting in septic tanks for thirty-two / years.’ Unknown Author

It was late…. a hot summer’s night. I arrived home to a dark, empty house, and a slow walk up the garden path, telling the kids to wait in the car until I got a light on. We entered the house and I set about getting the kids ready for bath and bed. Unbenown to me, someone had followed me into the house. Under the cover of darkness he had been lurking in the garden and used my tired state to assist him in entering my safe little home. / And he was about to make his presence felt. The back of my neck prickled and I rubbed it, thinking my shirt label was annoying me. Nothing there. Then I felt it. He put his arms up my shirt and ran his fingers down my spine. / I froze. His small hairy hands tickled my back, gently, tenderly. Deceptive. I called my son for help. / “I think I have something in my shirt,” I said, “Can you check?” / I held up the back of my shirt and he took one look, screamed and ran from the room. Does the colloquial expression “I damn near shit myself” spring to mind? / (I promise I did not..er…do that….... but there was a bit of a frantic leap in the air and a strange dance…....arms flapping….as I had to separate this huntsman spider from my person! LOL / But then, I did the right thing and put this big hairy guy back out in the garden where he belonged, unharmed…... though maybe he was as scarred by his experience as I was!!!

This one came to me in a chain email lol but it is funny! :O) A man walked into the ladies department of Myer’s and shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, ‘I’d like to buy a bra for my wife. ‘ / ’ What type of bra?’ asked the saleslady. / ‘Type?’ inquires the man, ‘There’s more than one type?’ / ’ Look around,’ said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, colour and material imaginable. / ‘Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types / of bras to choose from .’ the sales lady admitted / Relieved, the man asked about the types. / The saleslady replied: ‘There are the Catholic, the Salvation Army, the Presbyterian, and the Baptist types. Which one would you prefer?’ / Now totally befuddled, the man asked about the differences between them. / The Saleslady responded, ‘It is all really quite simple. . / The Catholic type supports the masses; / The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen; / The Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright; / The Baptist type makes mountains out of molehills.’ They forgot the German bra. Holtzemfromfloppen / Essential for joggers and gym junkies! :O) :O) Have you ever wondered why A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, and H are the letters used to define bra sizes? If you have wondered why, but couldn’t figure out what the letters stood for, it is about time you became informed! {A} Almost Boobs… {B} Barely there… {C} Can’t Complain!... {D} Dang!... {DD} Double dang!... {E} Enormous!... {F} Fake… {G} Get a Reduction… {H} Help me, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!... :O) I think I need a German Salvo Bra in G :O) [sounds like Beethoven! lol] / wonder if they sell them in the opp shop? lol – cheaper too! lol Chookas!!! :O)

Hello fellow Bubblers, / Recently, I saw someone had entered a forum discussing “who is buying Redbubble products”. I too am interested in the topic, particularly because I want to know who is looking at the work here. Is the general public spending time looking through the thousands of profiles, or are we Bubblers in our own world just massaging each others egos? Either way, what we do here seeps into the world. Even if it is just imprinted somewhere on humanity’s psyche. / I am primarily here to spread my arts “message of the day”. I am not concerned with selling anything. In fact I have been toying with the idea of turning all of my images over to the public. Don’t get me wrong, getting paid would be a well accepted byproduct of my true intentions. / The core of this journal entry is to call all artist to join me in finding your voice. You already have the power to get people’s attention via an image. Take that power and expound on it by giving it a message. Do not be afraid to make a statement. I well know what it means to hold your tongue for fear of retribution. I own and operate a sign shop in a small American rural town. Our population is just less than 10,000 and mostly white christians. Open your mouth about certain issues around here and you will find yourself without work. It has taken me some time to get to a place that I can express myself, as myself. / I, for my politics, have not been a big hit with the gallery owners. I pick and choose who I approach. It is the gallery owners who should be shamed, for putting the buck before their balls. If they championed artist who used their voices rather than cater to Decor shoppers, who want something new for over the couch, then more artists would be less afraid to make issue driven art. / I liken being an artist to being a psychic medium. It is a gift to be able to channel a creative understanding of the world. I am calling you to be responsible to that gift. There are many here who work tirelessly, stretching the limits, to push the big rock toward awareness ( you know who you are ), and there are a lot of cute, safe pictures. I am not saying there is no place for cute nor am I saying that a blasting protest piece belongs everywhere. I am merely saying you have a voice. Use it or lose it… Sam Dantone 01-20-09 /
