How your images can become an orphan work
very quickly
What is an orphan work?
a few years ago I posted a blog entry called Glorious Colours in Nature,
and included this image of some peacock feathers I had scanned. The image to the left is the print out of the original blog entry when my background was black.
I did a reverse image search and it's all over the flipping place,being used on book covers, blog entries,
Francesca was the BEST model
Okay the other model was GREAT too.
One of the local artists in our life drawing group brought her poodle today
and what a sweet dog
Dogs are very healing! and this one enjoyed mega cuddles and attention. It also reminded how much I miss Rufus :(
I can't say my concentration level was very good, not due to the dog though, but it was nice to get into the studio today. I just love the

Skull painting used as a LIV Nightclub Branding Image?
I found my painting online with the LIV logo across it on this well known Design Director's Portfolio. LIV is a big nightclub in Miami. Not that nobody would have known it was my painting on vinyl because the file name had been changed to liv_new_09 with no reference to me. My signature on the chin but maybe whoever grabbed it didn't notice or care.
I did contact the Design Director who
Butterfly Blue

Spent the morning visiting the Butterfly Garden at the Franklin Conservatory
which is currently featuring Butterflies of Brazil. I have in mind to do a couple more outdoor butterfly installations this year, similar to the felt blue butterflies Nancy and I put up at the Dayton Art Institute and on Xenia Avenue.
So the trip was part art related
but mostly FUN.
Blue Skies and Poppies:Being Thankful
As the horrific news unfolded in London, and the horror of it screamed at my soul I was reminded that there are some things in life that are just MORE important than getting ill and all het up about a few you know what's.
That is about the politest way I can describe copyright thieves who have been stealing or using my images to promote or profit from. Talk to me privately I will use more

Etsy Seller Karla Gerard also did NOT give permission for her image to be used by LaMiaCasa and after getting the same runaround as me, the image was finally removed.

Been a Stressful Few Days
Finding out how many people are ready to rip you off, small time and big time, companies, as well as fellow artists/photographers claiming they took the photos has been overwhelming.
On the other hand I have had a lot of support and you know who you are.

I found my image online and contacted them immediately. They sent me a link to a where they got my image. Unfortunately they bought a CD from a company that has my image on one of their products.

Figuring Things Out
One of the biggest challenges for me, well amongst so many when it comes to life drawing, is looking at a form and drawing it so that it makes visual sense. This was really an awkward position because it was hard to see the the bony or muscular landmarks that help direct proportions and show what belongs where. The models left foot was hidden, which added to the challenge. Overall though
Studio Shots: Inspiration
I have had this painting of a troll sitting on the shelf for a couple of years and been going back and forth on how to frame or display it. Finally it clicked when I looked at this photograph. Build a box frame with a shelf and have the 3d skull and a couple of roses in front of the painting.
Sunday Stitches
WIP
Slowly the stitched version of my sketchbook page I Hate Clowns is coming together. I added small pearlized beads for the eyelids, and ironed on velvet circles for the bow.
Not Getting It
It seems very silly
juvenile even
AND yet it can stop people in their tracks and say, "what the hell," and leave them laughing out loud. Who would think a silly little glittery screaming bug would have that much power.
When I was in Saint Louis I left one in a pizza parlour and a little girl noticed. As she left she was clutching it in her hand and she looked at me with the biggest
Life Drawing: Tattoo Model
We had a great model for life drawing, and it was his first time, did a smashing job.
I have to think it is quite nerve wracking the first time, especially with all these people staring so intently and scribbling away.
He was covered in tattoos which inspired me to play with the lines.
Didn't want to draw all the tattoos, but enjoyed incorporating elements. My main goal this week
