Thanks YOU !

Posted about 1 month ago

Last thing I was expecting today was a ‘sales email from RB’ !

Thank you to that person that just bought all them cards and prints… man, it feels good to see that some person new to RB stumbled across my work and decided to rip out their credit card. I hope the prints surpass all your expectations!

X Carmen.

Oh, for you sticky beaks… purchases included “are we there yet, heal…

The value of critique - and when to hop on your bike and piss off.

I love this place.

It can be pretty unpredictable:

-random inquiries from people that want to represent you in some strange form or other in countries you have never heard of, and never again will…

-normally sane and intelligent people commenting on dog poo and colonoscopies…

Hows this for a quote?

“If you make pictures, don’t speak, don’t write, don’t analyze yourself and don’t answer any questions.” – Robert Doisneau

Can anyone tell me about these RB emails...

Posted 2 months ago

if I delete part of a conversation or a conversation on my side, does that mean it automatically deletes that conversation on the receivers side?

Also, can anyone tell me why it is so easy to send an email and impossible to retrieve it before the receiver gets it in the cold cruel light of day?

Thanks, any advice is appreciated.

Me.

If I met God...

Posted 2 months ago

I would ask him why he never blessed me with the power to be in more than one place at a time.

He would be drilled on why true love seems so hard to find… and when it appears, why are we humans too blind to see it?

I would ask him why the term ‘soul mate’ was invented.

If I met God I would like to know why people say the world is small place and yet for me everything I really want …

Fresh vs Stale.

Posted 2 months ago

Ever opened up a pack of biscuits to find they are stale?
Crisps all broken?
Chocolate gone white on top?

Well. See, I’m wondering; I can paint and post. You know, post here on bubble-land, but then, when the work is officially exhibited, well, its sort of stale.

So, what would you prefer?
A) Nothing, like a massive crash diet and then the sublime guilty
gorge of everything in …

Hi Everyone,

I’m back from a wonderful warm holiday in Bali where I shared a great time with my partner and friends. The people there are just fabulous and we ate some of the most amazing restaurants so I am full of inspiration. (Yes – food inspires me, among other things too of course.)

While I was away I received numerous comments on many of my paintings for which I thank you.

I do…
