Been a while

Changing.....

Its interesting looking back over old posts, and having not posted in a while, seeing the latest too. I see a lot of bike related footage (hmmm Morgan?). Perhaps a hint from the universe to get back on it. However, regardless of content, the image is so nice. The light, the depth of field, the slow motion, crispness.

I am going to take a step in a slightly different direction over the next few weeks... ie- no more vids of biking....

I have cut off my hair, dyed it red, and quit my job. Time for a change.

Discovering New Realms in Cyberspace...

Last night I was surfing…. the web. I love to ‘Blog Hop’ in my spare time…. Some might say- Wow Kat, do something better with your time- I say…. No Way! Its so inspiring! “Do try it…. ” (as Mr Dilmah would say) It goes like this: Search google for something you find interesting.. eg mixed media art blog, or Art blogs… whatever, google does a good job of finding something on everything…. The goal is to find a website thats interesting and has some links down the side… thats when the journey begins. click away, and go places.Last night- I somehow (I honestly cant remember how) stumbled upon Zso: http://www.hellozso.com/

She is the most inspiring illustrator I have ever come accross. I followed some of her links, and found more and more amazing illustrators and designers…. and their links took me to even farther reaches of cyber space!

I feel so energised and inspired when I discover this kind of thing…

I am usually drawn toward photography, and mixed media as this is the area in which I work myself, I also love texture… LOTS of texture….. I guess thats why I like this work- there is a lot of texture within the illustration, markmaking, and different types of line/tone etc Organic lines mixed with geometric.

I could go on, I can tend to start whaffling when I feel a door has been opened… I will spare you all :)
