vg11. Dancer Outside My House and Yoga in the Park: Two Saturday Studio Works

Hello Dear Readers,

A Little Background about Me:

I was part of the New Renaissance.   In the historical Renaissance period world travel was considered part of any elegant young gentleman's education.  A couple of years ago I encountered a subculture of men and women dressed in clothes that would make them fit in from work to a party and the night life beyond.  The clothes also were international.  You could wear them in any culture.  As luck would have it, I sometimes accompanied these men and women in their world travels and got to experience the culture of many lands. Thus I am influenced by many cultures when I create my art.  Right now I have some Ambient music on and am watching a tropical underwater scene.  Saturday it was Indian spiritual music.  

Studio Work on Saturday.

The more public Corridor Gallery was finished.  This year the proper nameplates and my business card were all in the right place.  So I took a break from properly mounting the Rose Studio Gallery.  I dedicated This Saturday to new creative work.

Description of the Art Work

In one image I have a magic creature dancing right outside my house.  I could almost see her if I looked outside the window.   For the other image, I had a muse doing yoga in a neighborhood park.  The first image I used one of someone else's photos. The second one had my photo as a backdrop.
They both are part of the current exhibit dealing with autumn and the preparation of man and nature for the cold winter months.

The Problem of Free form Shapes

I decided to tackle photo montage. I had the program in Windows but I cannot cut freeform shapes.  I can cut them but when I transfer them on the background there is always a rectangular shape so if I did not fill the rectangle with the cut out, the space is completely white.  This means I have to fill it in bit by bit with the background.  I find this long and tiresome. I have another program called NCH or something like that.  I am going to try that. Afterwards, maybe Movie Maker will help me.

Despite the glitches, I made some pretty decent photo-montages.  I kept the motif of Vision boards that are supposed to grant your wishes.  But instead of placing them in a fantastic urban landscape I had mystical creatures appear right in the neighborhood.  Its still something I wish would happen but more real world.  

If you know of a free programs that I can get just the free form shape or if you know how to do it in Word please write me at kfabian.kathynotes@gmail.com

Are you interested in art-collecting? 
Send me your email address and I will send you a photo-present. 
  I look forward to a rewarding association with you.

vg1. Introducing Val Gal by Kathy Fabian

September 9, 2015 In the romantic novels the artist goes way up to his tiny attic on the very top of his house to create and be free.  Sometimes it has a great view of Paris.  Or sometimes the person is a writer who creates great novels and ideas. They both seal themselves from the rest of the world to do great things.  Well why not imitate?   I live in a woman's residence in a very small room. When I first arrived I imagined it as a womb.  A creative womb in which I would heal and rest and create great art.  I would sit on the bed cross yoga position with hands on my legs and look out the window and the blue sky. I would imagine I meditated.   I would imagine I was one with the blue sky. Well years have gone by and I no longer think of the room as a womb.  It became a small and impoverished cell for a while and then my imagination took over again.  I thought of it much like that attic. So now it is my studio in which I develop and frame the photographs that I create.  I ha

V24. Sparkling for the Celebrations. New Vintage Jewelry

Superstitious?  What kind of rituals do you follow for good luck?  For myself, I like to take advantage of special times to see if I can reap good fortune.  For example, if I have something important to organize I am likely to do it on a Holiday or on Sunday. So planning this week's Studio work was a no brainer.  I had recently received a large amount of old jewelry from an estate. The choicer pieces had long gone and these were left.  They were supposed to be unsellable.  So I asked how they were organized. I said if you give almost them to me, I will organize them for you in the proper way.  But I was given them instead. The owner felt they were just cluttering up the house.  Luckily I have my jewelry collection. To get them they had to be quickly boxed and taken off the premises.  But once I brought them home, there was no time to organize them anymore because of the Holiday Preparations.  So this Saturday I took some time to clean the antique jewelery and to put them pro

v10 Happy Thanksgiving, Construction sites, Autumn Days and Muses. By Kathy Fabian

Happy Thanksgiving to All! I hope you enjoyed your day and will look forward to many things to give thanks for until the next Thanksgiving. Get the exquisite image on this blog post.  Custom Made!   You Deserve the Luxury. And you support the Artist. Write  kfabian.kathynotes@gmail.com   for inquiries.    The leaves are brightly colored outside.  And the days sunny. So I went into my archives to find some images with splendid autumn foliage.  Saturday I reserved for studio work .  I had been tidying up my collection of muses and had a few lovely ladies ready to star in my photographic extravaganzas.  The final element was the inclusion of the very expensive, very evident presence of construction in the neighborhood. I had a lot of autumn pictures but I wanted to showcase technology and machines.  As luck would have it we were having some road repair done right outside our house.  And voila I had the tree elements with very little trouble;  Construction sites, beautiful
