I am really happy to announce that I have won another challenge with this photo called Waiting In Love in the wonderful group The Woman Photographer. This is a photo of my granddaughter Kaylee waiting in love for her baby sister Avaree. I am on vacation right now and will be home in a couple of weeks. I am amazed to say that most of the campgrounds we have been staying at offer free internet access right in the camper!! How cool is that? Many thanks to all of the folks that voted for my photo. I am really dancing in my sneakers right now. / Hugs / Vickie

It has arrived!!! Yay!!! My canvas print of Petals of Gold and the cards… very very awesome!! The more I look at the canvas print the more I like it… So until I get a hook on the wall for it, I’ve got it hanging over my calendar. Tha’ts saying something in itself as my calendar has frogs all over it and doesn’t usually get covered for anything! Not even sticky notes!! The fact that it’s really light is great… instead of nails and hooks in the wall, I might use Velcro dots instead. These are great for rental places too as they can come off the walls again without leaving marks. Makes me want to buy more… but as money is an issue here, I’ll have to wait! Thank goodness you have cards now… BTW: Thanks Xavier and Underbelly for ‘donating’ towards my canvas print!! The cards are brilliant… just as Khylan and others have said they were! I was expecting just the front on the groovy card, but what you have done is so much better… they are professional and beautifully finished! All in all… Absolutely, brilliant, fabulous and excellent job all of you fantastic people!!! Thank you ;D After all these fab comments, I have to balance it out with this : Wouldn’t it be even more fab if the bubblewrap was red? ha ha… green is better than boring old clear though!! Don’t know if you can get red.

One of my choices for this series of interviews is Dana DiPasquale – not because I know her very well, but because I don’t. I’ve found her photography work to be unique and surprising. Her combination of simple vignette’s and unusual composition results in some seriously emotive pieces. In particular, I was taken with her architectural work Some of my favourite pieces in her work are this old-time piece Our Name is Virtue ...followed closely by Waiting to Say Goodbye and it’s companion piece Lost in this World You won’t be sorry for having taken the time to read this interview. As it turns out, Dana is an artist whose life intrudes into her work in a most delightful way. What drew you here to the Redbubble community? I had my work and my father’s work (which I promote for him) on another art site. Unfortunately for me, that site was primary selling paintings, and photography took a distant back seat. Plus, there was little interaction among members and no avenues for learning. Someone on that site mentioned RB so I decide to check it out and was pleasantly surprised that within days of being here I won a competition. It was just the right pat on the back I needed to keep my spirits high enough to continue trying to get better. How does your creativity affect other aspects of your life? Well, this one may be hard to believe as it is does not present the stereotypical image. I am a scientist and I study exercise physiology (think of the Gatorade advertisements of athletes being tested). So, I work with both basic laboratory techniques (eg, test tubes, cells, etc) and with Olympic hopefuls, professional athletes, amateur athletes, the weekend warrior, and people with physical disabilities. My creativity allows me to wrap my head around complex physiological states which people may not always associate – for example, if I train my body to perform at high altitudes, will that also help my body adapt to high temperatures? The 2 conditions are usually thought of separately but I came up with a way in which one could help the other. A more practical example would be when I design exercises for people. Exercise physiologists are not often taught specific exercises to prescribe like a physical therapist might be. Often we have to use our knowledge of physics, biomechanics, anatomy, and physiology to create movements which will use particular muscles or motor skills. To do this well, you must be creative or your clients will quickly become bored of their exercises or adapt to them and not get any additional health benefits from performing them. There was an older woman who was a member health club I used to work when I was in college. She used to tell me “Dana, I can always tell who your clients are when you aren’t even in the gym because they are always the people who are hanging upside down or doing something I have never seen before.” How many mediums do you work in? Which is your favourite, and why? I started with drawing and painting, both of which produced good results only occasionally. It was actually the extreme expense of painting (along with the frustration of not being able to create what I wanted) that sent me to photography. I’m glad it did, though, because now I can enjoy creating things instead of fighting with it all the time. Tell us about one person or moment that has made your time on redbubble particularly special or meaningful. I have been fortunate enough to make 2 very special friends on RB, people I would consider my go-to people for when I have a problem. The funny thing is that even though they live half way around the world, I can always count on them being there more than the friends I have who live within a few blocks of me. To know that I can chat away, laugh, and cry on the phone for hours with people I have never even seen, makes you realize how similar we all are. What inspires your work? I am inspired by 3 general things: strong shapes and lines, looking at common objects from a different perspective and everyday scenes from my life which others can emotionally relate to. The latter is probably just my way of dealing with life’s struggles whereas the others come from an old movie I took to heart. It was “Dead Poet’s Society” when Robin Williams had his students stand on top of their desks and look at the same room they had been in for years from a new vantage point. You are instantly removed form your current circumstances and constraints. It suddenly creates a whole new world, making what were once common things less common, problematic things less weighty, ugly things more beautiful, old thing new again, idealized things more ordinary.

I guess over the years I have developed a niche or love for photographing certain subjects more than others. I have a huge thing for hot rods, classic cars & trucks. It stems from a childhood spent at race tracks with my dad. I grew up in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s when hot cars and rock ‘n’ roll were king (and in my world they still are!). I’ll be sharing some of my favorite cars here. I also have a thing for getting into the “heart” of flowers. I find macro photography both fascinating and challenging. I enjoy getting out and about around San Diego photographing what I think is “America’s Finest City”. There are so many exciting places in this county…and many of them are free to enjoy! I don’t really enjoy photographing people. In fact, I can get a little annoyed when they are in my shot. ;) However if someone adds to the shot then I am pleased. I also love shooting portraits of my beautiful daughter because she doesn’t get annoyed with me. My sons are a different story however. I’m looking forward to sharing my photos and getting to know everyone here!

I’m honored to have my photograph With love… featured in the That One Great Shot Group : Getting this photograph was rather tricky (have you ever tried to photograph your own hands with a camera having no manual focus, only auto-focusing in the very moment you press the release button?), so I’m really glad you like it :) Thank you all, and have a good light :) / Lenka
Whilst reading a @webgrrl post , these two statements got me writing: ...
Whilst reading a @webgrrl post , these two statements got me writing: 1. Self love is much more rewarding :) / and 2. No better Love than the Unconditional one…. Statement 1 is good and important. Self-love is self-confidence. It’s about using your talent constructively, establishing who you are through your actions, and having a direction in life. Self-love also helps you to know that everyone and everything can and will change – and knowing what you are going to do when it happens. Self-love is often all we have. Statement Two is interesting yet also true. When we place conditions on our friends and family, we constrict their self-worth, we stifle their inner-selves and we breed doubt in their minds. / (_Hmm, family might read this…_oh well.) Whereas unconditional love says we enjoy being with someone despite any foibles, habits or faults. Unconditional love tells a friend when they’ve made a big error, when their art is not, or when their under-arm deodorant isn’t working! Most importantly, having friends whose love is unconditional will mean you will be told when your path/choice in life is changing the person you are, thereby making you a different yet better (or worse) person! The family and friends we’ve all suddenly gained on RB certainly allows us to be more creative, to learn from our mistakes, and to travel the preferred journey – and get appraised for our efforts along the way. In all communities, artists are a necessity: They help foster imagination, they put pictures to the dreams of many and they encourage conversation. Can you find a museum or exhibition anywhere that has failed to gain an audience? From the pavement-chalk-artist to the island-wrappers of this world, everyone loves to view, explore and talk about art. This started as a comment on @webgrrl’s journal, but got so long
