Wandering Spirit

A few months ago, I came across a very inspiring site, Doodlage, a place devoted to doodles, sketches, and preliminary art. Leo/Rashell graciously invited me to be a guest contributor, so here’s a bit of my intro: “Sketching has always been a huge part of my art (and life)–as subconscious expression, use in final art, conceptualization, or as its own art-form. My sketches have been described by others as intense, odd, insane, neurotic, but in the end, it’s part of me and I love creating…” Check out the rest here.

Doodlage also has some items on Etsy, fun artworks on rocks and collages on paper.

Nearly a year has passed since I’ve started the site design to my personal site: www.shaireproductions.com–a daunting task with a Flash-based 100-page interactive book, Downloads, and Merchandise section. I’ve always heard that the hardest creative project was designing for yourself–your own brand. To condense who you are in one logo, one site, one image was quite a challenge. The site is a constant work-in-progress, but I’m pretty happy with it. I’ve become quite involved in Creative Commons licensing, mostly through my encounters with Flickr. It became important to me to provide a space for free art, art resources and photos. As artists, we’re influenced by one another. Seeing others’ interpretation of what you’ve created is inspiration in itself because you get to peek into another’s creative mind, thereby pushing your own creativity into new arenas. Anyways, check it out!
