I just discovered three of my vintage train series have been Featured in the Trains Group, all at once!! I am quite blown away!! They are The Sleeper, The Washbasin and Anticipation Thanks all for your comments, favouritings and support. Soooo much appreciated. Rosalie :)

Firstly I was wondering why my Vintage Pink image was taking off suddenly today with more comments and favouritings – now I know!! It is featured on Redbubble’s Art page – along with amazing images by Jason Connelly, Paul Vanzella, Robert Mullner, Sharon Hammond and others whose bootlaces I feel unworthy to tie! I am thrilled. Secondly I had word today that Vintage Luna Park will be used by a card company in Sydney to create giveaway postcards in spinners at hundreds of venues – I don’t think it has sunk in yet – Sarah’s Butterfly Kisses was published by them a few weeks ago, and is already out there in the ‘marketplace’ so keep an eye out in tourist spots, cafes, theatres etc … you may see some familiar images!!! Woohoo !!!

Good things actually come in threes, not in twos!! A huge THANK YOU to Blossom who purchased a card of Faded Rose tonight. All three images that have drawn attention today have been in the Vintage genre – maybe someone is trying to tell me something?!! Rather than leave a comment here, please use those moments to have a look at Blossom’s beautiful gallery – she supports cancer research with some of her sales and deserves encouragement for her efforts. :)

I am honored to have my newest design The Journey and the Battle featured on the Home Page today. It’s a piece I am very excited about or rather that I’m passionate about. There is a battle for all of us and this design is a reminder to me to keep going, keep fighting and keep standing up for what is right. Also in this work the knight may be surrounded by fire but he is not harmed by it. Sometimes things seam more overwhelming than they really are at first glance but it is never worth giving up the fight for what is right…Truth, Justice and Freedom. Thanks RedBubble and to all of my friends and fans!

I am proud to unveil a new painting from my studio entitled, “Segawa Kikunjojo II”. (Dancing The Part Of Yamauba) My painting is styled after ancient (1760 era) Japanese Graphic art, by artists like Tori Kiyomitsu Ga and Eshi Tori Kiyomasu Hitsu and based on paintings like, The Autumn Moon Above Ishi Mountain and Segawa Kikunojo II, Dancing the Part of Yamuba. / This is the first in my study paintings of ancient Japanese artwork. It was a very intense and rewarding piece to work on. Every line and brush stroke needed to be calculated and yet also flow with an ease and grace. This is my first original painting in a series of many I intend to delve into over the next year. / I am very drawn to Japanese art and grew up with traditional Japanese artwork in my home. The beauty of this type of art has always captured me, as I hope my work will for you as well. Here are some photos of my art as it is being created and completed…enjoy! xoxo

I had to read the notification twice before I could believe it – last night a LARGE mounted print of Real Men Drive Utes sold – obviously to a Ford lover!! (Is it significant that I also sold a copy of the old Ford Anglia recently?!!) There have been a few featureds and ‘top 10’ images lately, but this sale has eclipsed those … THANK YOU to the anonymous buyer. It certainly cheered up my day.

/ My Father had a great love for his cats. I remember once when I was designing a window treatment as a house warming gift for my folks, he and my step-mom carefully thought over and chose the very same blue that was the exact shade as their cat’s eyes. All of his life he had this special bond with his cats and all animals. I guess the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.. A special dedication to Leena and Minny on Friday, 12/12/2008 / Welcome home Minny!

Here’s the basis for my Vintage effect rose just posted … I did go on and add a few frills (see my paragraph at the end) but the whole outcome hangs on this simple process: While this is aimed at PS / CS2 / CS3 users I’m confident you’ll find this doable in Elements also. 1. Make a DUPLICATE LAYER of your image (control J) / 2. In the Image menu, go to Adjustments and across and down to Gradient Map / 3. This should show you pretty little boxes of colour! Click on the one which has darker grey in top LH corner, decreasing to white in lower RH corner. Click OK / 4. Across to the top right of your Layers Pallette, click on the tiny arrow next to Opacity. / 5. Move the slider till the image suits you … maybe halfway? / 6. Go to Image menu / 7. Down to Adjustments and across to Photo Filter. / 8. Choose the Sepia filter, and adjust the sepia density. Click OK. / 9. Back to Image menu / 10. Down to Adjustments and across and down to Brightness/contrast / 11. Fiddle the sliders a tiny bit to get the contrasty look that you’d like. Click OK This is basically it – you’ll need to flatten the image before saving. However there are many more variations you can use once you are comfortable with this process. Try adding a different filter other than Sepia, or some tasteful light with the Render filter. Try doing another duplicate layer with Gaussian blur and erasing the blur at maybe 50% from the main focus of the shot (as I did with my rose) … then of course flatten again before you save. Please point me to your image if you use this – I’ll be interested to see how you go!!!

/ There are a lot of…
/ There are a lot of things regarding this image that remain as a complete mystery to me up to this day. / First weird thing was the choice of the main figure. All of sudden one day I decided to create a 3D rendered image by recreating Mata Hari, the Dutch-Frisian exotic dancer and courtesan who was executed by firing squad for espionage during World War I. Why I choose Mata Hari? Mmmm…Heaven knows! / And this was the image of her that I intented to recreate. / So I opened my cinema 4D software, imported Victoria 4 (the basic female Poser figure) into it by using the InterPoser plugin; then I positioned her in a similar pose to that of Mata Hari, and from that point on I started the hard task to create/build rest of elements such as cloths, hairdo and accessories. Considering that I just wanted to recreate the original image, and not to make an exact copy of it, I decided to take some liberties regarding most of these elements. / This was the first result. The original idea was that of obtaining an alpha image so that it´d be relatively easy to create a convenient background for it. / I exported it into Photoshop and started experimenting with several background options, mainly outdoors photographs from old buildings. Then I realized that there was a problem with the camera angle; none of the available background options matched with the original camera angle; so, to make things short, have to say that none of them finally worked out . / So I had to went back to cinema 4D in order to create a background for the main image. I tried with different options with no acceptable results till I recall I had this portentous Temple Of Megaera, a DAZ 3D product I had bought some time ago. This time I made a full render _ main figure plus the Temple_ avoiding hard shadows. I still don´t know why I took this decision; cause I use to work with well defined shadows, mostly the hard ones. / Then, I went back to Photoshop again. I resized the canvas in order to concentrate the view on the main character. I knew I had to give up the idea of using a full color image and that it´d be necessary to desaturate it in order to give it a vintage look; but how? / Well, those were the days when I first met Redbubble, and I was deeply impressed by artists such as Martin Muir and Headcrime, also WanderingSoulArt _ navybrat came later to me, or it was viceversa?_ just to mention a few of those ones who can achieve highly impressive artistic results by texturing and blending layers, that´s to say, the compositing techniques. So I ask myself: why not trying to do something similar with this image? / So I search the web for some free textures. I found very interesting sites, image*after, for instance, which is a large online free photo collection. I downloaded one of their free texture images _ sorry, don´t remember which one_ and blended it with the original render by using the overlay mode. ( I had previously desaturated the original image). / And this was the resulting image. / / Have to confess that I never thought of having these results. All I wanted was to create an image with a vintage feel. It was more of “let´s see what I can do with this”, just a simple try, I mean. / Now, one of the main mysteries for me resides on the wide acceptance that this image has had among viewers: 67 comments, 51 favoritings and 2380 views. / But what impresses me the most are comments such as “…it reminds me of an old horror ghost film”, “a little scary”, “haunting”, “very eerie and mysterious”, “the creepy subject, textures and fantastic background…”. / Needless to say I´m more than honoured by these and other comments viewers have made for this image. But now you can see that I was miles away from trying to create a haunting, or creepy, or even a ghostly looking of it. Honest. / I´m very proud of VIntage Study No. 1 and it´s been my pleasure to share this image, as well as the process of creating it with all of you. Thanks a lot for your kind support. / .
