Water of life overflowing my soul… / Bringing forth the blessing and joy of knowing, / It is not I, but God who is in control. Covenant blessing under His bow shall I kneel… / For it is by His stripes and His stripes alone, / That my wounded soul has been healed.

    Spiral staircase in the Vatican Museum. / I love spiral staircases and this is an amazing example. Definately inspired by nature, when you looked at it you coudn’t help but see the shell like forms appearing. I would love to photograph this with nobody else around, but I actually feel the people add some scale to this piece and I dont mind them being there at all. If I didnt have the Vatican Guards looking over my shoulder I would have been there all day!

  • Apple Blossom Chickadee
    by Renee Dawson

    US$4.83–US$110.20

    Apple Blossom Chickadee has been nominated for the prestigous Pay it Forward Group by JackyP. This is what she said about your image / “.this is a particular favourite of mine and always makes me smile :) The image seems to sum up the arrival of spring with the lovely blossom and little chickadee. Renee puts a lot of time and love into her work and the results are just pure bliss!! / -—-—-—-—-—-—-—-- / Thank you so very much Jacky! / -—-—-—-—-—-—-——- / Featured in Painted-Digitally – February 25, 2009 / Featured in Cards: Best of your Best – February 2, 2009 This art started out as a photograph of a black-capped chickadee sitting on a barren branch. After a very long winter (so far) I needed something that sang Spring time is just around the corner! After a lot of fuss, and several hours, in Photoshop and Painter X this is the final result. Every pixel of this piece was re-painted (digitally) by hand. All of the apple blossoms and leaves were created from scratch. As a final touch I added some texture to the piece to give it that last little edge I was looking for. I hope this image inspires you to dream of Spring :) / / Lavender Finch / / Fine Art Gallery / Bird Gallery / ADD RENEE TO YOUR WATCHLIST

    Another week, another creative project for you to get your teeth into. This time, the task is to create a work using textures. Wonderful effects can be achieved by adding a bit of texture to your works. From aged and worn looking photos to grunge typography and vintage and distressed t-shirt design, textures can be applied to nearly all types of art. Textures are added to images by creating extra layers in graphics programs like PhotoShop or Gimp and the best thing about the process is that there are no rules. You can experiment with multiple layers, colours and opacities to fine tune the results. You will need … Free textures and other resources: You can create your own textures by photographing textured surfaces such as wood or concrete. Alternatively, there are loads of websites with textures that are free for commercial use. These include: CG Textures Texture Warehouse There are also textures available from some very generous bubblers: Cameron Gray Johanne Brunet These links may also give you some ideas: 10 Quality and Free Grunge Brushes for PhotoShop and GIMP Five Free Hi-Res TTV Textures Vintage Scratch brush set / Tutorials: The following tutorials should help to get you started. Playing with textures (by Vanessa Pike-Russell) Grunge Text/Type (by Alison Johnston) Using textures in photoshop (by atrei) Add texture to a photo using Photoshop Adding texture using Gimp Adding textures to your photography (lots of great ideas) / More inspiration from RedBubblers: / There are more inspiring images over at the Layered with Texture group and the The Grunge Art Gallery. Please post your results below so we can marvel at how talented you are. If you don’t have time to create a work of your own, perhaps you can help us by posting some more inspiration or linking to your favourite examples of textured artwork. Good luck! Nat

  • Arrested Expansion is a symbolic scene that depicts a combination of self-excluding objects that might not be present in real life. Objects in the secluded room make the viewer feel claustrophobic and unreal, which might be compared to someone’s mental delusion based on a medical condition. Image is a mixture of photo stock with some 2D vectors, and 3D objects. Photoshop, 3ds max, Illustrator. / The most common cause of cardiac arrest is a heart rhythm disorder or arrhythmia called ventricular fibrillation (VF). The heart has a built-in electrical system. When a contraction happens, blood is pumped. But in ventricular fibrillation, the electrical signals that control the pumping of the heart suddenly become rapid and chaotic. As a result, the lower chambers of the heart, the ventricles, begin to quiver (fibrillate) instead of contract, and they can no longer pump blood from the heart to the rest of the body. If blood cannot flow to the brain, it becomes starved of oxygen, and the person loses consciousness in seconds.

  • Still Believe

    there’s always our hopes & dreams:)

  • ALL PROCEEDS DONATED TO PHOENIX APPEAL The hand has been a universal motif since ancient times, whether it be a signature, greeting, protective device or healing tool. I’ve been working on a series depicting hands. Inspired by vision, they are few and far apart and like dreams will not be forced or summoned. The painting manifests completed in my mind, every layer of detail woven into the next in the manner of a tapestry; every element in the design holding meaning. When this happens I know its time to get in the studio and paint before the image loses potency and fades away. The hands in these paintings are my own and painted life size. They are meant to be expereinced not only as art, but as a focusing tool. By placing your own hand upon the image and concentrating on the colors and undualting lines, what they represent, and endevoring to sense this within your own fingertips and palms, the mind is directed toward awareness. Occupied, it ceases its chatter and allows you to be directly in the body, in the present moment rather than thought – traveling to the chores and concerns of the future or dwelling in a remembered past . Just focus on feeling the colors and what they symbolize to yourself and imagine pulling this sensation into the hand, to the heart and throughout the body. Then radiate it outward. Dont direct or worry about where its going anymore than the sun and stars concern themselves with where their light shines. Just focus on the sensation. In time you’ll be able to do this practice without a painting. Its a form of cleansing, washing away the dust and debris of the road. This painting itself is a feminine one, representing healer and healing. It was inspired by a friend who practices therapeutic massage, but the modality is not important here. This image is not only about the desire to heal others and self, but the drive and ability as well. I’ve written a few of my notes below. In many cultures butterflies are associated with the unfettered spirit, soul, femininity, and all that is beautiful and ephemeral. Lakota teachings say that butterflies flutter near girls and women, often landing on their shoulders, and convey knowledge regarding the location, harvesting, preparation and applications of botanicals. For this reason the monarch butterfly, so abundant on the prairie, seemed an ideal metaphor to convey the traditional concept of healing, healer, and wellness. The spots are patterned after the border of a monarch’s wing, symbolizing the Lakota woman’s affinity with butterfly medicine, but have other meanings as well. They are stars and fireflies in the night skies of summer, yin to sun’s yang , countering heat, dryness and light with cool, moist darkness. This imagery came one day as I held my hand before the sun, studying the way its shape was cast into deep shadow, almost a silhouette. I could feel the coolness in its shade. The sun flashed between my parted fingers and for a few moments afterward miniature suns danced across my field of vision, even when looking into the shadow of my hand. The two fingers glowing blue at the tips represent healing energy transferred by healer to client. This blue light is positive intention, conscious purpose, the place from which a healer draws power and luminous sky washed clean and purified by summer thunderstorms. The hand is dark (yin), it greets and touches the sun, source of warmth and light (yang). The small blue circle in the palm of hand is the void from which power is drawn. It is infinite, like the sky above. The swirling circle of orange is inspired by the patterns on a monarch’s wing, representing movement, new life, the birthing process, creation. There’s more, but this exerpt provides an idea of my intent. Whats more important is the way it resonates with you. Text copyright Helena Nelson -Reed. Please do not use without written permission.
