let's all gather around...




for the past few months i've been getting excited crowds. this is a new turn of events since i have been consumed for so long with images of mundane objects, a sun flare obscuring the entire shot but offering a beautiful palette of soft mauves, beiges and pure whites....

throwing caution to the wind i am embracing group love. here are some examples of photography and illustration. the drawing is from a local artist named keith jones http://www.nobodyland.com/ whose large scenes invoke a surreal 'where's waldo' sensibility. and the group shot of ridiculousness comes from the 2007 graduating class of central saint martins. the original picture was about twice as big but they've taken the site down and this thumbnail was all i could find...

call it an ode to globablization.

Hi ngaire,
Nathan just told me about your blog & it's awesome! I was thinking that this entry about crowds and the idea of the group& globalization would be a cool concept for an art class to work on.
Thanks for the inspiration and exposure to new thoughts.
