Monday iMage Madness

It's been a while since I've showcased some of my image finds on this blog. Lately I've been showcasing those finds on my tumblr account. Today I thought I'd showcase some new RedBubble members - those that have recently joined the site. Take a look at the gorgeous thumbnail images below - the first four are t-shirt designs while the second four are gorgeous photographic prints. Click on each thumbnail to view the image in full - it's well worth it. If you're a RedBubble member, and you like their work, why not leave them a comment. Enjoy!

Steve Leadbeater - Feature Artist

Steve Leadbeater is a Melbourne based artist who creates images using the successful blending of typography, graphics and photography to create original Tshirt designs as well as greeting cards and wall art. The image that introduced me to Steve’s online gallery was this simple, yet very effective message:

It doesn't matter by Steve Leadbeater

Surely such a statement resonates with those of us who create pieces and display them in online galleries for all – or no one - to see. His style is deceptively simple, yet complex in meaning. I’ve included a few more of my favourites. Please visit Steve’s online gallery, and see which of his designs resonates with you.

Sunrise Line-Up

An untouched image that evokes that sense that all is well with the world. As difficult as it often is to leave the warmth and cosiness of your bed in the morning, being greeted with scenes such as this makes it so worthwhile. You can feel the freshness, the crispness that is early morning and that cannot be replicated at any other time of day.

My On-Line Love Affair...

...started with the sheer delight experienced by rsmac and his dainty image of a sea shell. If rsmac could derive such pleasure from uploading his images onto RedBubble, then, surely so could I..couldn't I? And so almost a year down the track, the love affair of taking photos, editing them so that they become my interpretation, uploading them onto RedBubble, and of course selling the occasional card and wall art and t-shirt has continued and shows no sign of waning. Something so enjoyable couldn't possibly be bad for you, I mean there's the online community, there's groups to join, forums to chat on, competitions to enter, critiques to be a part of... And of course, there is the daily learning. In life, whether it be real or virtual, is there no better aim that to learn something new everyday?
