As previously mentioned, I purchased fifteen of my own photographs as cards. I’d ONLY planned to give a few away as gifts to close friends, and in particular to the one person who convinced me that my photography was worth selling. She knows who she is. So this morning I brought fifteen cards into work purely to allow these friends to choose the picture they liked most … and allow them to have it for FREE. These are the photographs they choose. / / ... for Yve / ... for Rosie / ... for Jenny / ... for Liam / / Little did I realise what would happen next… / / First, Jenny liked them so much she insisted (read: I caved) on having four more. Who am I to argue with a woman? So I decided on a price, she agreed … and I earned another ten dollars. Yes, I reduced the cost to $2.50. But that’s what you do for friends, and free publicity. / / , , So I stopped for a minute to consider my options. Why not sell them? OK, so I had instructions from “SWMBO” to keep some for Xmas and Birthday cards later this year. I was implicitly told that two would go family interstate within the next week! / / So after a quick email, these two photographs were purchased by Yve: / / , Then Wendy said she might miss out – so she bought three (and asked for three that had already been purchased)! / / , , Whew! I feel exhausted and exhilarated all at once! And I need to remember to exhale. Because selling one’s artwork is like giving one’s children away. The photography and post-production is nothing compared with suddenly becoming a ‘recognised photographer’. One person did say I could make more money if I did all this myself. Possibly. But all I want to do is photograph. RedBubble remove the hassle by doing all the framing, laminated, sending, and finances for me! / / One more thing: Wendy also gave me the boost and the BEST Quote of the day : ” I’d rather spend my money on your work, not on Hallmark! “ / Wow, I’ve been compared with Hallmark – and won! She also indicated she will purchase more of my cards online. Only one of the didn’t sell. I get to keep this one for my desk: ‘A picture tells a thousand words’. I love this quote. No longer do I need to write to family and friends – I only have to take one photograph to write a thousand words!

I just recieved a gift from Simon Whittaker. It’s a portrait of his wife, Mel and one of his sons, Paddy. I am as close to being completely overwhelmed as I can be. / Mel and Paddy are such attractive people, and Simon did such an amazing job of capturing thier warmth, and joy, and love and RedBubble did such a genuinely top-notch job of printing, matteing, and mounting the image that I immediately gave it the premier spot in my apartment. / I’m very impressed with the quality of RB’s workmanship and, if any of you aren’t familiar with Simon’s work, you should really give yourselves a treat and go through his gallery. You’ll be impressed with his work and very happy that you spent the time. / Simon, Thanks. You’re a gifted photographer and very good friend.

(This originally appeared at my blog, The Flying Trilobite on Sat. 23 May 2009. You may comment there as well.) - – - – - It happens to artists. Surgeons. When someone marvels at the eye, or bacterial flagellum. “Your art ability is amazing. A gift from God, no doubt.” sigh Just because something is hard to understand, just because complicated processes occurred that you did not witness, does not mean it was caused by a benevolent mythical being who hands out aptitudes like Santa with presents. It has been a source of fascination to me, and not a little frustration that the ability to create art and the complexity of biological features each sit in the blind spots of members of the devout populace. Like a gift from god. It’s throwing your hands up in the air and casually (lazily) admitting ignorance. I get it: it’s supposed to be a compliment. But it actually insults me, though I usually reserve my cringing to myself. I have worked really hard to get where I am in my artistic ability, and I still reach and try to learn. There was no magic “poof” granted to me as a child that allowed me to render a decent life drawing or balance colours in a composition. That was studying. That was attempts at keen observation. That was making countless mistakes I attempted to learn from. Feedback. Crits and criticisms. Learning from indifference. Trying new materials. Replicating happy accidents. Sharing techniques. If this happens to you, encourage a bit of reasoning. I don’t like being a jerk. Somehow, any response I can think of seems like a rebuke. “Those years of school I paid for were earned. Not a gift. ” (Those heart-wrenching hours when you push a painting too far and ruin a perfectly good life drawing don’t feel like gifts either.) How does one say it? How do you lead a person to reason? How do you encourage them to pull the holy book out of their mouth before they speak? -Glendon Mellow / The Flying Trilobite / Art in Awe of Science

Inspired by Darren Stones Calendar Donation initiative...
Inspired by Darren Stones Calendar Donation initiative I wanted to do more more than just donate a calendar. I did do more. I donated 30 CDs, but then i wanted to do more…and more…it just never feels like enough. I also decided that i’d rather have people who would normally give me gifts at Christmas time, give instead to someone in need…someone whom they didn’t know. And i wanted to do something more about it! So, i have set up the Hospital Xmas Gift Initiative For only $7 (Aussie dollars) your gift of a new Tania Rose CD will be donated to a hospital, caring for thousands of people…people like you, who are often lonely and frightened. Music is now recognised for it’s healing potential, and i have only recently discovered that the music of Tania Rose has been involved in studies which have shown it to be helpful in easing suffering. But public hospitals don’t have the resources to purchase helpful CDs. I hate to sound cliche’, but YOU CAN HELP! / Click the picture or the link to donate just $7 The music may be used in the childrens ward, to help babies sleep, or to ease someone’s suffering in their darkest hour. Give compassion this Xmas. / I plan to
