Im pleased to let the redbubble community be the first to know that mikotoMiniBadges are now available at the mikotoShop on my website mikoto.com.au. They are all limited edition badges that could someday be a collector item ( you never know?). I will only make them available while the shirts are in season and until their stock runs out. I hope you like them. I have been very busy tweaking all the website gargon and making them look as vibrant and as fun as possible! scotty.
Since this marvellous new ability to divide portfolios, I’ve decided to try my hand at some print graphics, which is something I did before getting carried away with all this tee nonsense.

“It’s all fun and games until someone loses an I” / Then it gets simply hilarious… I think I’ll make a T-shirt motive out of it too. Plus several with individual “expressions”. Let me know if you would prefer a version without the subs – giving freedom of interpretation by oneself, perhaps. It is a pretty large composite of 6 photos – even though I reduced the size to 5200×5200 just to be able to work on that on my piece of junk…
yesterday I attemped to have a conversation with someone about what consitutes a ‘real photographer’. rather that respond he reacted by telling me I’m a negative psyhco bitch, the only bad thing about Redbubble and should hurry out to buy razor blades and kill myself. no shit! I guess this means I’ll never be a ‘real photographer’ so to celebrate my freedom from the label of ‘real’ I’ve decided to concentrate on posting some UNREAL photographs. Here’s the first. This is a chance shot taken while someone slept in the set of an alternative theatre production some years ago. Vale Peter your real to me still though you are no longer real in a corporeal sense.

Ascension is about love and its power. Anahata is the chakra located in the heart region. iI has 12 petals and it is connected to the capacity of loving deeply and also to the feelings of compassion and empathy. It is generally depicted in the color green, but in my mind it appeared in luminous yellow with hints of red. It is through the anahata chakra that we can contact universal love. It is the main point of contact to the so-called “inner Christ” and the upper planes. Other symbols I used to represent the same concept are the water, running upward in a straight blue stripe across the picture, and the fish. The fish is connected to the Pisces sign and also to the primitive Christianity message. Both symbols are related to universal love and compassion. The skull means that loves transcends even death, and leads to a deep transformation. It also has the meaning of the XIII arcane, Death – things that die to give place to other ones, a deeply alchemical experience. The upper figure is representative of a state of ecstasy and bliss conduced by deeply spiritual experiences. When we are able to achieve a full state of love, even for brief moments, we feel like we are connected to something bigger and higher. Experiencing love is also a totally libertarian thing, which I wanted to show through the hawk with open wings emerging from all the violet at the top. It’s only through love that we can transcend our material condition and achieve perfect happiness and fulfillment.

GREAT MEN & WOMEN Pen and Ink Drawing Original Available A5- Black Matt- £ 30 + P+P My homage to Poe in a Graphic Novel style / Inspired by his work The Raven A Verse from The Raven…. / Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter, / In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore; / Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; / But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door / Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door / Perched, and sat, and nothing more
