Autumn Colored Days

=pentangled — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 07:55:39 PDT

Color is a big deal to me.
It's the way I order things and the way I remember things.

As we (northern hemisphere dwellers) are approaching this lovely colorful season, here are some autumn-ish colored images from my collections. Big thanks to all these people for sharing their talent & gorgeous colors!

I love the bizarre, the unexpected & the inexplicable. You guys are experts in the fields of curiosity & fascination!

what's in a name?

=pentangled — Sun, 19 Jul 2009 04:41:08 PDT

I've been pondering on this one pretty much since I began to use the pseudonym pentangled. It kinda stuck,and now about 10 years on I'm wondering if it's "me", or if I'll choose a new direction. My choice is simple - either stick with the word that (surprisingly many) people seem to have trouble pronouncing, or revert to the name I've been known by for most of my life: Penn Gregory. OR something else altogether! (choices choices choices... suggestions welcomed!)

I guess my reasoning for changing being, as I plan to pursue my creativity in a career-wards direction,I feel like I should stop being so darned non-committal and settle on a name that gives at least a suggestion of my style and type of art, and without giving a misleading image.

If you could spare a mo to share your thoughts I'd be really interested to hear them. I trust you guys!

I'm back to DA after a hectic few weeks

My PC is up and running and back to full fitness, and I'm now wireless at home too - Woohoo!

About 8 weeks ago we embarked on a bit of decorating at home, which has snowballed into an epic painting, cleaning, washing, junk-clearing episode. Only the bedroom left to sort out. Makes me so glad I live in a small house! Carloads of stuff have gone down to the charity shop, making space to enjoy some uncluttered tranquility. The long planned & saved for upgrade to the hifi means with awesome new speakers I'm hearing music I've loved for years in a whole new way. Such happiness!!

I've also applied for an Open university course which starts in October and I'm really excited about. I'll be studying for a BSc in Computing and design.

Now back to some creativeness!

Wishing you all a lovely holiday weekend - may all your bunnies be chocolaty!

Radio Silence...

Am awaiting delivery of a new PSU for my poor weary ' puter. She's sitting on my desk, case off, all wires, techie-bits and gubinz bared to the world. Soon as she's back together, I'll be back, but til then I'll just be doing non-computerised things for a few days. A digital Detox, as it were.

See you all soon (I HOPE!)

Sunshine

=pentangled — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 06:32:55 PDT

and a well earned rest...

Hi guys,

After months of family-based chaos, I'm finally escaping for a week! I've been putting off a very necessary business trip for several months, as my mum's health has been so unstable. But she's a little more settled now and I just can't put it off any longer. So I've booked my flight and leave next Thursday ...So now I just have to work full-speed for 2 days before I go (just realised how much to do!!)

But before I go, just wanted to share my most recent little collection, images centred on what I'm soooo looking forward to finding on my little adventure: being somewhere warm where the sun isn't obscured by rain clouds all the time!

Evolution or Recycling Ideas?

=pentangled — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 03:44:33 PDT

Sharing some thoughts...

So as you guys have seen, I love to doodle... and much of my art has it's origins in my inky drawings which I scan into photoshop for transformation. They form part of my digital scrap book of potential ingredients for my art (along with a huge bunch of my random photos, textures, bits n pieces of color and shapes)

It always surprises me how different the destination can be from the same starting place. I wonder if the drawings evolve in various ways, or if they are old ideas being recycled into something new. Not that it matters, I'm having fun!

Here's an example of what I mean...

One of my personal fave sketchy-doodles:

Which evolved into all of these:

Phoenix of Summer

Tower

Double Eye

6-way Eyes

Light & Shade

=pentangled — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 07:05:03 PDT

sharing a collection...

I love color. I surround myself with the colors I love most, and color is how I mentally file and organise the world.

But sometimes the absence of color is what really makes an image. Shape and form stand out, contrast shows detail which could otherwise be lost.

So here's a handful of my personal faves you guys have created (virtually) colorlessly.

We Love...

=pentangled — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 06:59:36 PDT

sharing a collection...

In an ever shrinking world we all use the universal language of symbolism with or without knowing it. This little collection is named after the screen saver I once saw in a friends office - randomly appearing and disappearing these two words "We Love". It made me smile. So do these...

"love is like a trip on the ferry between heaven & hell"

the big outdoors

=pentangled — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 05:26:23 PDT

sharing a collection...

"The big outdoors" - a phrase which conjures up images of endless landscapes leading out to distant horizons, nature in all her beauty. Whether real, imaginary or a combination of the two, these images represent to me all that wholesome outdoorsy goodness. You guys have created some gorgeous images that I've gathered together in this collection - thank you all so much - here are just a handful of my faves of my faves...

You'll either love this or hate this. Committed non-cat-people look away now.
Or if you have a profound phobia of the overtly cute, again pls don't read on.

orangey things

sharing a collection...

Not only my favorite fruit...I'm a big fan of color, but if I had to choose just one in an otherwise monochrome world, it would be color of energy, spirit, enthusiasm, really great sunsets and happiness: Orange. Of course that's unlikely to happen... but just in case I've been hoarding up some orangest orange images, here are just a handful:
