GO VOTE for Adebanji Alade

This post is to promote  a great artist that needs your votes:

   Adebanji Alade

I had the chance to meet him in London and on top of being such a fantastic artist with amazing creative ability ( see all the DSFDF he blows us out of the water every time), he is one heck of a nice person and guide.

 Well now he has a change to win the price to come to New York and do some of his artistic magic there. So I urge everyone to go vote for him at this SITE where you will see his page. Please pass the word out.

This is what our little community of artist/friends is all about.

LET's press those buttons we can do it were online already !

Since I can't post any new work I thought I would post a few sites I've found that are really interesting , innovative or just fun. 

So the first one I will post today is about making anything you want with your art work or pictures.

Like making believe your work is in a museum like above.

Or a glass ball / spiral effect

Or a rubik cube

There are many more free effects you can do and others are not.  If you have photoshop some of the one with a fee you can find there but otherwise it is a fun site to experiment with.

It's always kind of fun to see what you can do with your work. Here is their site. HAVE FUN !

Sniff !! :(

Well my daughter age 23 left for Thailand on a missions trip leading 15 college students (just a year or two younger than her) to help in an orphanage with one gentleman co-leader for 3 weeks. I'm mentioning this because at the last minute we realized she did not have a camera hers just broke, so away mine went !   Now posting will be a bit more difficult, Oh well . 

Thank you for waiting !
