Derby Girls, gotta love em. They are a different breed. Wild, fun, playful, sexy, rugged, athletic, competitive. Pulled this image from the files today. I don’t even remember it from the first time around looking at the images. Probably because I was more focused on the portraits. We did a series of portraits of each girl along with a vintage car parked under a freeway. The driver let us use his very cool convertible. Seemed to me it would be great to get something with him and a few of the girls too. It’s funny when you go back through stuff. I can see from looking at the take that this was the only frame I shot like it. This one included the framing of the car window and reflections, which the other ones didn’t. I pulled a few others from the shoots too, may post a few more later and talk about portrait shooting… 🙂

Nudist at Heart
Doodling, I don’t now where a specific doodle comes from. Do you? I sit down and with an implement in my hand I touch the drawing surface and the line appears, my hand moves. It’s instinctual, intuitive, a mind of it’s own. A line that chooses to be this way or that way, to take form and soon completed. I usually don’t remember the middle and what happens along the way. Do you? Do you doodle? Are you like me on the phone, or sitting thinking at a table and find yourself drawing something? I’ve noticed that we all have a very distinctive line. Even a straight line, drawn by two separate people can have a distinctive difference.
This particular drawing, the woman figure, was one of those instinctive travels my hand took. The rest of the image was completed in Adobe Photoshop using line art, photoshop brushes I’ve created, layers, layer blending modes and selective color. Admittedly it’s a bit of an oddball and a bit on the racy side, even for me. But the best part is it’s 2013 and the art is flowing!

inspiration is everywhere! Take 15 minutes today and doodle. Pull out a sheet of paper, a pen you like and go to it. See what happens. I did this one awhile ago but then scanned it into my computer, used Adobe Photoshop to embellish, color, added some imagery and voila! happy Valentines Day! Your turn. If you share it I will delightedly publish it here on this blog to celebrate your creativity! It’s It’s Simple Math, u + i= love
