Project 365 – Week 30

The last week contained more or less only work…and there is no change in the next two weeks. So there are a lot of pictures taken from my office balcony :)

Die letzte Woche bestand mehr oder weniger nur aus Arbeit …und das wird sich auch in den nächsten beiden Wochen kaum was ändern. Nun denn – es sind also viele Bilder dabei, die ich von meinem Bürobalkon geschossen habe :)

*201/365*

The tv tower – from my office balcony.

*202/365*

St. Pauli Stadium and the beginning of the summer fairy. We have a month long fairy four times a year. This means I will hear the screaming people on the roller coasters in my office next week – LOL

*203/365*

Another random shot from the office balcony. Can’t see our roof terrace- LOL

*204/365*

WorldWarII Bunker- right across my desk – nowadays it accomadates music rehearsal rooms and a big music store.

*205/365*

I could eat Sushi almost every day :) On the other days my Italian Blood screams for Pasta- LOL

*206/365*

Playing with Glimmer Mist !

*207/365*

Love how this sight in the hammock- LOL.

Wishing you an amzing sunny sunday!

Spraying and Stenciling – how fun!

So…finally I made it to the store around the corner “Underpressure” and bought some really cool spray paints – I limited myself to four cans before I entered the store- but I do totally know I need more colors- LOL. Although I was totally out of place in this store and admitted right from the beginning that I was a newbie to the whole thing, I got some amazing costumerservice! I also bought a mask- which is absolutely necessary and which I forgot to put on once- no good!!!I also got the coolest Markers in the world- more about them some other time.

Nun denn …endlich habe ich es geschafft den Laden um die Ecke zu betreten “Underpressure” und ein paar wirklich coole Sprayfarben zu kaufen. Vor Betreten des Ladens hatte ich mich schon auf 4 Dosen limitiert – aber ich brauche nun wirklich mehr Farben – LOL. Obwohl ich völlig ferngesteuert und fehl am Platze in dem Laden wirkte und zudem auch noch von Anfang an gleich zugab, dass ich von der ganzen Materie null Ahnung hätte, bekam ich eine unglaublich nette und gute Beratung! Ich kaufte auch gleich noch eine Maske – die absolut notwendig ist – und die ich dann auch einmal beim Sprayen vergaß aufzusetzen – Großer Fehler! Außerdem bekam ich die genialsten Marker aller Zeiten – aber davon ein andermal.

And then I set up a spraying station on the roof and started. Boy that was fun! Here are just my favorite examples from this afternoon.

Und dann habe ich mir so eine Spraystation eingerichtet – oben auf dem Dach – und losgelegt! Hier sind ein paar Fotos von meinen Lieblingsergebnissen an diesem Nachmittag.

Although I screwed up the Ape-Stencil – I like the background a lot. Definetly have to try this again. The Ape and the scrolls on the side are bought stencils.

I love the depth here and I have already an idea for a layout with this. The Rays and the bubbles are selfmade stencils.

The layout for this one is already done – I love this a lot.

This one is a collaged – pretty big- canvas that I have standing around for a while now. So I just thought I would do some stuff on here and I like the outcome. I still need to think how to proceed with it- but I think I will come up with something eventually.

So I hope you enjoyed my spraypaint stuff- LOL – don’t you think I need more colors? Which ones should I get?

Ich hoffe Ihr mochtet mein Sprühversuche – LOL – meint Ihr nicht auch, ich brauche mehr Farben? Welche soll ich kaufen?

Nat

The one about REJECTION

I got some mails and a comment about not making the Cosmo Cricket Team. Nice Mails- thank you girls. But to tell you the truth..it is not THAT bad. Yes…I do not well on rejection…and in the past, honestly I had shed some tears, questioned my self, questioned my work, questioned the people that picked the design team, questioned the bussiness- everything.

But I’m over it. I’m still sad when I’m not picked and it needs an hour to soak in, but I do know why. There are many reasons and one is that I stay true to myself and my style is just not what most manufacturers are looking for. I do not scrap a lot of children, I have often political or very personal statements in my work. My layouts are messy and contain a lot of paint and techniques that might drive away the attention from the actual product. I’m just not what they are looking for – and that is fine – because…I WANT to stay true to myself. You know…they miss out – LOL – not me, because I still get published, teach workshops with products and I still show quite a lot about the versatitilty of product (you can disagree of course- but this is my post- LOL). And at least…if I’m picked by the amazing manufacturer Rose Moka I know that they definetly like my work with all my rough edges.

It would have been nice if CC would have left a little comment on the thread just to let me know they saw the work and well…say they appreciate me trying, because at least me and a lot of others did some “nice” advertisment for free for their company, but hey…that little comment wouldn’t have made the world more beautiful or my life a quota better.

Because- even with that rejection… my life is good and beautiful. Life is not just paper and scissors and art can be a cure:)

Congratulations to the CC finalists – I wish you all luck!!!

I am upset that people wasted time in emailed you and commenting about you not making the team. Have they nothing better to do with their time? You are an amazing original artist and you don’t need a manufacturer to tell you that in order to realize how talented you are. And I am so thankful for that. Lots of love to you!

Nat. I am not always a nice person and I think that I want to say a not nice thing: I think *most* (not all) scrapbooking is crap. It looks very, very much what a few friends of mine in graphic design and web design do as advertising.

The reason that I say “crap” is because art is not meant to be advertising, even if it advertising about how awesome your kids are. If the scrapbooking’s purpose IS advertising, then many people make lovely ads.

I LIKE your work and some others, in fact some others that have commented here. I like it because its intention is art not showing off product.

Yes, I am an art snob (music, literature…) but still.

I’m actually pretty disgusted that CC got all that FREE “advertising” …it’s just not cool, but that’s business. And art, should not be anyone’s business but your own! ;) The fact that they did not acknowledge those who made the effort is really disturbing. I don’t care how many entries they had, a thank-you card is just good manners! Hang in there…

Sometimes You Want To Go STM #93

We have a new fun challenge idea on our Scrapping the Music Blog going on. Each month the first song will be a TV-show theme song – and this month we start off with “Cheers”

Wir haben eine neue Challenge Idee auf unserem Scrapping The Music Blog. Die erste Challenge im Monat wird jeweils ein Song einer TV-Serie sein – und diesen Monat starten wir mit “Cheers“.

The line that inspired me was: “Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name” – it reminded me on all the fun photos I took in Amsterdam with sign that said NAT- which means “WET” in dutch.

Eine Songvers hat mich besonders inspiriert “Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name” – er hat mich an die witzigen Photos, die ich in Amsterdam geschossen habe, erinnert, auf denen NAT – also NASS stand.

*Sometimes you want to go*

Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Yesterday we went to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs concert (IndieRock-ArtPunk) here in Hamburg – part of my birthday present. So cool. It was totally my music- which might surprise some of you, and it was an awesome performance and I had a lot of fun. I love the Yeah Yeah Yeahs for some time now- have all of their three albums and I needed hard and loud music yesterday!

I did not take my Camera nor Flip with me so there is only this bad cell phone picture

And this is my favorite song by them…

Love these LO’s and the pics seem to capture the boys (although I don’t know them they show personality).

LO: Sunday STMG #92

A new song on Scrapping the Music “Beautiful Sunday” by Daniel Boone -this song reminds me on San Francisco -so there you go with my kind of stupid pic- LOL

Ein neues Lied bei Scrapping the Music “Beautiful Sunday” von Daniel Boone – dieses Lied erinnert mich irgendwie an San Francisco – da habt Ihr den Salat – also ein doofes Bild von mir – LOL

*Sunday*

Hi, hi, hi, beautiful Sunday
This is my beautiful day!
Birds are singing, you by my side
Let’s take a car and go for a ride
We’ll drive on and follow the sun
Makin’ Sunday go on and on

The photo was taken in SanFrancisco in 2000 – right before my friend Esther, Jim and I took the PickUp to go on a road trip down to Cousin Janelle in San Louis Obispo. So fun!

Supplies: Heidi Swapp Invisible Cardboard, LuminArte Paints, Hambly Screenprints Transparency, Sassafras Papers and Chipboard and Letter Stickers.

Can’t wait to see what you come up with !

Ich kann es kaum erwarten zu sehen, was Ihr kreiert!

Hope you have an as beautiful sunday as I have :)

Nat

Great layout. I guess I have never heard that song before. Today did turn out to be a beautiful Sunday, however.
