Underwater love

Trent Mitchell is a local GC boy who is blessed with an amazing ability to capture moments from a perspective that thrills the heck out of my retina's!
His love is waves, clearly a surfer who digs the shit outta mother natures wonderous and gigantic bath!
The colour and saturation of his images are soooo incredible! I love the work he does with film, the digi shots are awesome as well but I would seriously give my left tit for his talents with film!
Plus not to mention he has some great taste, one of the quotes on his website is from one of my fav books, Johnathon Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach... "perfect speed....is being there!"
His gift with a camera, film or digi, is not to be missed check it out kids...

Hidden Talents

Emilie is an English Teacher... I think she should be a full time artist!

check her huge Flikr stream here you will not be disappointed I promise!
her love for polaroid was rediscovered only a few years ago... for most of us polaroids are entwined with memories from our childhood, like Emilie, however she became drawn to explore the wonders of instant film again. Thank god she did or we may never have seen images like the ones below!!!






It was though Emilie's stream that I stumbled across the emulsion lift technique...
this completely intrigues and excites me to the point that I want to reshuffle some budget priorities and buy me a polaroid cam just to try this...

The above emulsion lifts are by Abbey Wuthrich and Graham Tait respectively...
oooo its just makes me wanna get my hands on som 669 film a cam and start making things!!!
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Sensory Overload

Okay so today I have hit several jackpots... I have disappeared down a rabbit hole of inspirations, imaginations and the most amazing blogs ever!!! and now I'm in overload!
I think today goes down in history as the most prolific blog/website treasure hunt, and boy did I come up trumps!!!
Above you see the amazing work of Sam Weber, a canadian illustrator that has a great website you can view here I'm still scooping up the pieces of my brain after it exploded with excitement and delight after drooling over his work!

Below is an artist by the name of Rosson Crow, her paintings (which are on massive canvas') are incredible! the interiors she depicts are lavish and detailed without the element of precision and I love it! I found her on... hmm was it colectiva or Dropular???? one of the two! arrrrrrghhhhh what next????? hmmmm....

ok so after a wee bit of deliberation and review of the images I have added to my puter today... here's a slice of heaven from a little site called therewasrain.com a blog full of rad photographers and architects... seems like a weird combo, but anyhoo i dig it just the same... I'm sure you will too!

Next up Justin Blyth animator, designer and art director... has some MAD skills with a Holga! he has a rad website with tonnes of cool shit on it!!! check check check it out!!!

I wish I had more patience when it comes to sharing things that excite me as today's wanderings through cyberspace could keep me blogging for about a month... so I'm going to stop here and save at least some of the awesomeness I found for a later date... ahhhh who am I kidding, you'll be seeing more in about oooooh 24rs or less!!!!

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
