• Are you a vector fiend?
  by Natalie Perkins

  I have just been browsing “Coudal Partn…

  I have just been browsing Coudal Partners’ Layer Tennis. Matches consist of a ten volley round of vector tennis between two graphic artists. It got me to thinking – sure, none of us is a Veerle Peters or an Armin Vit (yet) but why don’t we give it a crack? Guidelines (you know what pirates say about guidelines) Players must use illustrator Matches take place with two players Each match consists of ten rounds Each volley must use an element from the previous player’s volley (unless it is the first volley, where the first player to volley gets to “set the scene”) All volleys must use original work (no stock photos or vectors) Players must wear those tennis socks with a bobble at the heel Questions / Are you up for it? Do you have any ideas where we could host this marvellous (yet friendly) competition? How long should each artist get for a “volley”? Do you think Coudal Partners would sue us for using the term “Layer Tennis”? Can you think up a better name? / How about this for five minute’s work? It’s nerdy, makes me giggle and illustrates the idea of the “volleying” involved without ripping off the original title!

  I’ve recently developed a new children’s online magazine called Cherubs OzKids. / http://www.freewebs.com/cherubschildrensmagazine / The purpose is to showcase new children’s writers and illustrators and to promote the reading of quality stories and illustrations. To keep the magazine fresh and vital I need a constant source of new stories and illustrations each month. At this stage I’m not in a position to pay for contributions, but am willing to publicise your work in lieu. / If you would like to submit your stories or artwork please contact me at cherubsmag@hotmail.com or reply via Red Bubble with your email address and I’ll get back to you. / Ultimately I’d like to see this magazine develop into hardcopy format selling in newsagents etc. Can Red Bubble help with this project?

  I’ve been keeping a close eye on the featured and popular pages on Red Bubble, and wondering where all the painters, illustrators and graphic artists are?! There are some AMAZING artists working in these media on the site, but it just seems like they’re all being lost in the system. I have nothing against photography or the photographers, but it’d be nice to see a more even spread. So – do your bit! Upload your best painting, illustrative or graphic pieces Seek out painted and illustrated works Comment, fave and watch! The popular algorithm is a closely guarded Red Bubble secret, however I’m sure doing the above things can help boost painting and illustration on this site. I know we can all help bring attention to the amazing artists on this site who deserve to have a little light shone on them! I will go through my own watch list and select and feature artists who I think deserve to be a little more popular. I have sent in my request to have an Illustration group on RB, and Kathleen emailed me back a few days later and said that many people had requested the same thing and that they were nutting out a plan for launching such a group. I really can’t wait, I do think a group dedicated to illustrators might be the shot in the arm needed for illustrative artists. If you’re with me, let me know!! Spread the word! (I have submitted this to a few groups, please let me know if this is appropriate – because I think it is, and highly beneficial to us all!!)

• TED696 Project - please vote for me!!!

  I’ve been madly thumping away in my vector shop of late. The latest little creation is this horned beauty … !http://www.bigfatrobot….

  I’ve been madly thumping away in my vector shop of late. The latest little creation is this horned beauty … I whipped it up for the Tooheys TED696 competition. They are about to launch their new 696 ml long neck, and they want artists to create an arty paper bag for it. If you get a chance, all you need do is go to the “Gallery” section, slide the little green slider to “I’m digging it” and hit “Submit vote”. You don’t even have to register. They’ve commissioned one of my favourite artists, Shepard Fairey (of OBEY Giant fame), so in the unlikely event it wins, I will be in very good company indeed.

  Howdy all, This Saturday is Drawing Day and I’ve been having a think about a few ways we can show our appreciation for the use of pen, pencil, pastel, ink etc. So here’s an idea. On Saturday, why not pledge to leave at least one comment on an illustration piece and favourite at least one sketch or scribble. Whether it’s a pen and ink portrait, a masterpiece in marker, a quick sketch or some show off who owns one of those wacom tablets – it all counts, so make the effort to hunt down some of the drawing talent and let them know you like their style. If this sounds like hard work then I’ve made it easier for you by putting together a little gallery below of some of my favourites which I’m going to keep adding to over the next few days. Check their favourites and I’m sure you’ll find even more. Alternatively, leave a comment below with your recommendations and we can all join in on the quest to support the illustrating talent on the bubble. Share the love. (Virtually) hug an illustrator on Drawing Day 2008. Nat :) / / / /

• The Geisha Tea Party (Detail)
  by thickblackoutline

  Hi Kids, As this …

  Hi Kids, As this is such an epic piece, and took me a few weeks to complete, I thought I’d put a bit of an explanation about it here. It’s all almost like a bit of a “best of TBO” with all your fav Geishas at a Tea Party, along the lines of the Original Tea Party I’ve redone 7 geishas for this, which are, (in no particular order): Osaka Nights / Yakuza Babe / Bloody Mary (my fav) / Phoenix / Frosti / Marymary (The Gardener) / Tea Geisha (“remixed” a few times now, she was half done in the first place) / Enjoy Kids!! (phew) Go back to The Geisha Tea Party Much Love, /

  Sometimes I doodle just for the hell of it, and there are a lot of times that I produce things that are kind of cool that I could never sell as prints. For example: lately I have taken to defacing my magazines – it’s a way to reuse paper, and often the paper stock is quite lovely to draw on (Frankie in particular!) Enjoy :D

  Friday theme day today is for the traditionalists – those who work with just pen, ink and imagination. Illustration is the oldest form of art – we can find examples on cave walls from 40,000 plus years ago. Today on RedBubble it has come a bit further. But the essence of the art is the same – showing us a new world by highlighting some specific elements of importance to the artists. Illustration, whether beautifully simple of fiendishly complex, connects us directly with the artist as we see the flow of their hand across the paper.

• Paul Does "Wicked"
  by Paul Compton

  Hello everyone! Welcome to my first journal entry… I’m putting up some new drawings that I did whilst reading and thoroughly enjoying the book Wicked by Gregory Maguire. For anyone who hasn’t read it it is essentially a re-imagined back story to L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. We get to see how Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, came to be considered evil. The book really got to me. I love that Gregory Maguire has turned the once quite one-dimensional characters from L. Frank Baum’s classic tale into fully rounded entities with realistic desires, flaws and past experiences that have shaped them. For anyone interested in books that don’t merely separate the world into good/bad black/white piles then I recommend this. It’s gritty, funny and so visually descriptive that I had no choice but to dust off my visual diary and create some sketches of my own. I’m putting up seven of these sketches that turned out okay. The six illustrations in the book itself, by Douglas Smith, are really lovely so I recommend taking a look at them – my drawings in no way compare! / The book has also been turned into a musical. I doubt that the stage version will have the punch that the book has but I have my ticket for when it arrives in Melbourne anyway. Fingers crossed it’s not too horrendous. Next I must thank my dear friends Sylvia Karall and Monica Rutherford for letting me use your scanner, feeding me, making me feel wanted and for helping me with my general computer illiteracy. I would not be on this site without you!!! They’re also both very talented. Here’s the link to artwork by Sylvia Karall / As well as the jewellery of Monica Rutherford / Enjoy! One last thing, I’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who comments on my work and sends me messages. I appreciate it immensely. / I hope you enjoy the new pictures everybody and there will be more coming soon. Love Paul

• My Interview With Rubyred!
  by yanmos

  “Creativity” talks with Rubyred! / ...

  “Creativity” talks with Rubyred! / How does being a creative person and pursuing your creativity affect other aspects of your life? / As well as being a creative person by nature, I’m employed to be creative. I work as Head of Graphic Design for an international publishing and events company. I’ve worked as a graphic designer for over fifteen years and as most arty types would tell you, you can go through periods where you feel drained of any sense of creativity and end up just going through the motions. I was going through one of those periods when I stumbled upon RedBubble. Joining and participating in the Bubble community has given me back the enthusiasm for design and creativity. I have renewed energy at work and my projects are benefiting because of it. In terms of other aspects of my life, I’ve started to see a wider picture. I’ll look at global issues in more detail than before, to see if I can represent graphically a particular issue whether it’s oil, war or the Beijing Olympics for example. I like to involve my two young children with art projects as a way of them expressing themselves. Kids can have a lot of distractions these days and being able to sit down with them ‘sticking and making’ gives me and them, a lot of pleasure. It’s a cliché but the simplest things are often the best and that often applies to design. Tell us about one person or moment that has made your time on redbubble particularly special or meaningful / I find it hard to point at one person, or even one moment. But, when I uploaded one of my earliest and currently most popular t-shirts to RedBubble (Winds Of Change), the response was fantastic. The comments I received really lifted me and gave me a needed confidence boost. The fact that you can reach a huge audience of like minded people through one website is amazing and I thank everybody who spares the time to view, comment, favourite and purchase my work. Show & tell us about five works on redbubble that have moved or inspired you / In no particular order, here goes: / Environmental Footprint by nofrillsart. / / I could pick many pieces from Glen’s folio, in fact, I often check his pages before I start work on a new piece because a few times recently I’ve come up with a great idea only to discover Glen was there long before me. He has a very sharp creative mind that is well worth checking out. / Binalong Avenue by Danny. / I discovered this when Cathie Tranent listed it as one of her 5 favourite pieces in her interview. It’s a very moving piece of writing. / The Geisha Tea Party by thickblackoutline. / / An epic piece of illustration greatness, the details just keep coming and coming. / Clepsydra by Yanmos. / / I know it’s one of yours Yannis, but I do like people who have a strong consistent style, and you certainly have that. / Oil Kills by Frank Stillitano. / / A great piece of bold, powerful and meaningful graphic design – just what I like! I could have listed so many more, apologies to everyone I missed. The quality of most of the artists and work on this site continues to impress and inspire me. Thanks to RedBubble for providing the vehicle and long may the journey continue. Thank you very much Roger for your time! / Jo O’Brien ’s idea Mission Share The Love

  I always love finding blogs of my favorite artists sharing their creative process. Whether it’s on Flickr or on a Forum. It’s just nice to know they’re not so full of themselves that they are willing to give us the inside story of how they do their work. Unfortunately I can’t share the images of my work in this post but I will do my best to tell the story of how I create my work. 1. Begin with the ending in mind. / First, I get the idea. It’s usually spurred on by a photo or maybe an artist. Even subject matter. I read something the other day from another artist, he said: “Always have an idea, a story that you want to capture before you put pencil to paper.” This is what I try to do. The sketches that end up being full finished pieces are usually the ones with an idea or story behind them, no matter how small. / So that’s exactly what I do. Visualize what I want to see in my end product. Close my eyes and think and focus on the intension of the piece. Sometimes this takes some research for reference to find out what something looks like exactly. But if you’re doing something that you know there is no reference for it, just let your mind go with the flow. 2. Thumbnails: 90% Planning 10% Execution. / I almost always do thumbnails. 9 out of 10 times I do this. Especially with an idea that is complex and will be time consuming. I will do maybe 2 or 3 thumbnails of an idea. Usually to plan out composition. I try to apply the “Golden Ratio” where ever I can. With all my stuff there is usually a character or characters featured in the artwork. So I plan out where I want them. Review it over a few days. Then decide whether it’s worth completing. If I’ve done the process correctly up to this point then I go to step 3. My tip for composition: Learn the Golden Ratio and know what colors work together. Symmetry is overrated. 3. Scanning and Correcting. / I scan in my thumbnail which is usually about a greeting card size. Blow it up in photoshop to print it out at A3 size. If there is anything that I want changed that will help me when drawing the finished version, I will change it in the drawing with my Wacom Tablet. I can also quickly check if the colors I had in mind work or not. Contrast is very important when considering the how effective your Composition will end up being. The image at A3 gets printed out as two A4’s. I stick them together and get out my custom light table to sketch out the proportions on a clean piece of A3 paper. Tip: Remove what is not necessary. A great Zen practice. 4. Detail and Drawing. / This is definitely one of the fun parts of creating my artwork. Sometimes I add more objects or take away objects. I pretty much fill in all the detail I want to be featured in the final piece that will be colored up in Photoshop. I use a 0.5 Tech Pencil for everything I pencil. My tip for penciling: Make every line count, put intension behind every single line 5. Inking. / This is time consuming, but again very fun. I sometimes don’t use any ink, like in my “Fairytale Christmas” piece. But I decide at this point whether the line work needs ink or not. If the pencil lines are not good enough then I will ink. I use fibre tip ink markers of various sizes. But I generally try to keep all my line widths/weights the same. This is part of how I see anime drawn, so this is what I emulate. It’s appealing and neat to my eyes. My best tip for inking would be: Don’t press down hard. Glide. 6. Scanning Again. / Yes. Again scanning. I have to scan in two parts as I have an A4 scanner. This is tricky to keep each side of the page inline with eachother. Once in photoshop I try my best to line up the two parts of the page and finally I’m left with an A3 image. I lift up the levels of the image to darken the inked lines and to lower the grey scale. I’m then left with cleaning up an ink smudges or finger prints that might have not been rubbed out when I finished inking. My tip for scanning big pages on an A4 scanner: Use masking tape. 7. The Coloring In. / I love coloring. I use a A5 Wacom Tablet to color my linework in photoshop. / I set my brush to a solid line with pressure sensitivity on. So my lines go from thick to thin depending on how hard I press down. Not much to say here, except that I try to keep things simple. I use two tone coloring first and if I really feel like doing more I’ll add a third tone. Thats on the shadowing side. I then concentrate on any back light or highlighting tones, if needed. It usually helps depending on the scene. Again my coloring style emulates anime coloring. What I do sometimes is if theres a character I want to stand out more than others is to use gradients over various areas. It’s subtle but effective and not overwelming. In “Spirits & Demons” I went with a simple color tone bing pink of all colors. I’ve never done an Illustration that used a lot of pink. The reason I did this was to create a feeling of emptiness, slow motion down. It was an image with lots of things going on so I wanted to contrast that with simple use of color by making the image predominantly pink tones. The image also has a white background which is ultimate contrast. Again if I added a background of lets say, Clouds. It would just make the image far too busy. But if I made those clouds lower in coloration than the subject matter that would probably been okay. My tip for coloring: Choose your colors carefully. I do one more thing in all my images. Once everything is flattened into one Layer. I saturate the colors. Then I use Color Balance to add more Red or Blue to the image. It gives it a more unified tone. It’s all about tones. Hope you enjoyed this and that it helps you in some way.

• Pulp Faction Profile: Rhys McDonald
  by Simon Sherry

  Hello and welcome to the latest Pulp Faction Profile, spotlighting the talent in the Pulp Faction: Comics and Sequential Art...

  Hello and welcome to the latest Pulp Faction Profile, spotlighting the talent in the Pulp Faction: Comics and Sequential Art group here on the Bubble. Our next artist is one Rhys McDonald, a NSW-based illustrator with a folio full to the brim with robots, wrestlers, bloodnuts and pin-up girls. So, without any further ado, we give you… Rhys McDonald Occupation: illustrator – editorials mostly Secret Occupation: Astronaut (kind of still working on that one) Hometown: Sydney, NSW Australia Currently Residing: Shoal Bay, NSW Australia. Influences: / I never really thought about comics until my late teens and picked up Jim Mahfood’s 40oz comics and had a lightbulb type moment in the comic book shop and it grew from there (Eightball was my other lightbulb moment). Now I’m a big fan of Stephen Silver, Jon Adams and Josh Howard. Writing wise Jon Adams, and Howard again, it’ll sound cheesy but my oldest and best friend “Tom”:http://fivethumbsdown.blogspot.com/ is a big influence on me, Mike Mignola as well. I’m pretty much influenced by something if it’s fun or funny or absurdly skewed. That’s what I’m into. Current projects: / The Plastic Age – The chance for me to, occasionally express something which would often be easier done with a straight blog. Other times just an excuse to make dick and fart jokes, or more often than not, to rag on someone. The comic I’ve had people say they like the most, ends with aged versions of the characters pooping their pants. This amuses, and upsets me. / My main project at the moment is trying secure more work, like an insatiable hunger I desire more delicious jobs at various magazines and other outlets. If anyone is interested, write me (cheap and nasty plugs rule) / There’s also the heavy amount of cheesecake illustrations I’ve been doing lately. I’m not sure what these are all building too but I’m really enjoying them. Then there are my new books, released earlier this month. (details right here) linkage: / The Plastic Age – general updates and comics, plenty of art, mini comics available from there also (new books will be available there also) / Art Blog – general drawings and other bits and pieces, not updated as much as TPA is, still meaty though. / Redbubble page – If you want to purchase something, get it from here. I’m on the ‘bub a fair bit these days and something is always getting ready to be added Previous Profiles: / Profile 1: Caanan / Profile 2: David J Cunning

  Once again, The Fixer himself Tom was my lyrical cohort this week for your Friday Grist. Now, I dont mean to to suggest that everyone thats been to or studied at an art institution is indeed an asscock, but some are more pre disposed to it than others. Generally speaking. The said brand of cock-fiddlers were the source of many rolled eyes and many lolz. There was a particular fellow I remember from my brief stint, he was a large heavy set fellow, smelled of cigarettes and body ordure, whom I never saw actually work, ever. I only ever saw him in the tiny filth encrusted courtyard chain smoking while tiny flocks of emo’s huddled around his pungent glow. I garnered from his pants he was a painter, but I saw little evidence of it. But thats an extreme example of it, the design and multimedia kid where fine, too meek to utter a word above a tiny frail whisper. The staff were old washed out has beens, save for 2 which imparted words which have resonated in my fickle brain. Geez I miss that place sometimes. Asscocks and all.

Figured i should share the responsibility in writing journals with FireRabbit, so here goes; Kookylane and FireRabbit is doing a collaboration, where we keep passing the ball to the other everytime we finished an artwork (yes a bit like a tennis match, but we decided to call it ping pong just because it sounds funnier). We started with 1 image titled lookout! that i made, and so far there has been 5 images. Not sure how far we would take it, but we are about to find out ;-P Click here to see all the images
