Meditation is not Thinking

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:25:41 PST

Meditation is not Thinking - is something to think about! :D

Meditation is not Thinking is the first of my Message Series outputs in my Zazzle ClearlyChosen store.

I have been thinking, on off on, about messages - for T-shirts and stuff - and also because they come to me in all forms (from what people say, what I read about, what I see, what just pops in), and I find that they intrigue me. Sometimes I am left thinking about the various roads and avenues that some succinct set of words take me. And sometimes, they change my perception, and change bits of myself.

So instead of just thinking about it .. I thought, let's just do it ... and so was finally birthed my Message Series.

You wanna Swirl on Zazzle?

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 09:28:37 PST

My matey asked me "why not have some swirls in your t-shirt designs?" He was looking for just a simple swirl. And I promise to do it .. eventually.

Meanwhile I have been playing around with Swirl combos. The results for tonight ..

Baby Face 2012 on Zazzle

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 19:07:31 PST

Baby Face goes to Zazzle.
Today I am enjoying putting Baby Face to Zazzle.

t-shirt Baby Face - customizable by ClearlyChosen
Browse Clearly chosen T-Shirts

I find artistic work in progress as fascinating as the final outcome. This original artwork is by Xavier Lim. Xavier tells me that more of the baby is yet to come (like the body! lol!) But I love the face just as is and so Zazzle now showcases it as well :)

I have found that it is quite exhausting, with a touch of boringness, to do many variations of a design all in one setting. So as part of my 2012 actions - I am just going to Zazzle stuff for the PURE JOY of it. That means that things get Zazzle-fied in joyful droplets rather than in huge batches.

Today's little effort sees Baby Face on a t-shirt and yes .. on a Mug (pun intended :)

Wire Wrapping Some Small Gemstones

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 10:59:43 PST

I went off shopping in Malaysia but a little while ago and came across some lovely little gemmies. Lovely they were but little is the operative word. Not being able to help myself from thinking that surely there must be a way I can use them in jewelry, I succumbed to buying some. Okay, quite a lot actually.

This here is my first experimentation with them:

Wire Wrap Gemstone Charm Bracelet

I have written up more detailed notes on this Wire Wrap Gemstone Charm Bracelet and also some simple photos and steps on How to Wire Wrap Small Gemstones that have no holes. Because as you can see, each little gemmie is wrap snugly and cozily with wire.

There are of course many a way one can go with little gemmies like that - gluing for instance. And gluing I will do in the near future as I have stumbled across another idea during the experimental construction of the above technique.

Even the gemmies here are not really truly and exclusive wire wrapped as such. There is a combination of crochet and wire weaving involved. Not hard at all and I must say that this new technique of mine works well. I am pleased - yes I am indeed.

The bracelet goes to Christina Gillett who was with me when the gemstones came into my possession. I suh hope she loves it this Christmas :)

The bracelet also features another new experiment of mine: a double clasp - one to make the initial putting on much easier (you know how bracelets are notorious for defeating one hand clasping!!) and one to hold it secure during wear. You can read more in the Wire Wrap Gemstone Charm Bracelet article.

Adios Amigo!

iPad Dragons for Dragon Year 2012, on Zazzle

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 01:14:29 PST

I was informed recently that the coming year, which is zooming towards us, is going to be a Dragon Year (2012). So in preparation for that, I have decided to brush up on some of the very delicious work by the artist Xavier Lim and present his incredible dragon on Zazzle.

First up is the Power Dragon gracing the sleek lines of an iPad.

Baby Face appears on Zazzle

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 01:43:20 PST

These t-shirts on Zazzle can be easily customized by customers - color/style/size. Almost all of my Zazzle Store clothing are available in Men/Women/Children/Toddler sizes - you can easily choose the desired combination. Zazzle is so cool!

I can't be a Grace Jones but ...

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 18:40:03 PST

Peter showed me a photo of Grace Jones in today's papers: an art photo of the incomparable Jones in her latest "Hurrican Dub" album.

Grace Jones
Source: http://img.sceper.eu/images/hurricanep.jpg

Definition:dub music: Dub is a genre of music which grew out of reggae music in the 1960s, and is commonly considered a subgenre, though it has developed to extend beyond the scope of reggae. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dub_music)

Pete showed me the photo because yesterday I had asked him to keep in mind, look out for, and inform me of images/graphics he sees that he would not mind having on a T-shirt. I am determined that he is one of my Zazzle customers for Christmas 2011 (!!!! :D )

However I cannot put Grace Jones on a t-shirt or on anything else for that matter. Not in a commercial way. Copyright issues and so forth.

So that got me thinking about ladies in cigar or smoke mode. And I was wandering around, with the help of Google, in the public domain area of the internet looking for some such ladies when it occurred to me that I had in my possession, a photo of someone who is definitely not going to sue me, but who was caught in the pose of smoking.

So here below are my first outputs of the Smoking Girl. You can get these t-shirts in Men, Women, Toddler, and Baby sizes; in the color and size of your choice, and even in the words of your choice. Come on! I mean, who doesn't want a Smoking Girl - with no health danger attached!!!

Jewelry finds Zazzle

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 13:17:08 PDT

Time for new experimentations. I thought, how about all that work & love that I have put into those jewellery pieces? And all those photos I took of them. Now, can I have them feature on Zazzle even though that is mainly a POD (print on demand) industry and not one would naturally associate handmade accessories and jewellery?

As a first attempt, I found a large enough photo of a bangle I had beaded and combined with felted cabs. It also featured a lovely clay cabochon by my lovely friend over at Peruzi.

This is my handmade bangle:

A new old artist has come to my Zazzle store - under the label of H-Art or (and this is where I give the game away) also known as Helena-Art.

Yup, to date I have been working on and promoting Xavier-Art, Happy Boy, Sarong Girl - which are all the wonderful creative endeavours from my beloved brothers.

But I knew that sooner or later, I would need to find time to have a go myself. So today I have :D (all say "Yay". A bit louder, thanks.)

This is my very first effort and I shall pause here and go off to 'play' some more ...

Wow I have been converted! I am now a fan of fractal art. The below looks like a lady - like a lady in space, or some dancing fairy lady who looks quite ethereal and about ready to step out to dance. Doesn't she? But she really is a bit like Rorschach (ink splatter) test - it is all in what your mind sees :D

iPad2 Case & Sooty Present

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Sun, 25 Sep 2011 05:43:22 PDT

Though these 2 main items were not strictly created this last week, nor (believe it or not) were they the only two things I did all week .. however I did finally manage to finish the requisite photos and even talk about them plus post them at various places I like. So these then are my show and tell for the week just passed. :)

Tina's ipad 2 Case
This week I finished an iPad 2 case for my sister. I was very touched and chuffed she asked me to make one for her and I certainly hope she likes it. And I certainly certainly hope it works as it is supposed to! It is both a iPad stand as well as a protective carry case.

More pics and details of the work in procress can be found at: Handmade iPad 2 Case, as part of my Misc/Craft Gallery.

Soot's Birthday Necklace & Earring Set

Swarovski for Soot -
Beaded, Wired, & Coiled

My bday gift to Soot on her 51st. Lots of bling (and there is no better than the Swarovski kind :). My original design: Shaped RAW (right angle weave) with large focal Swarovski Cosmic pendant - wrapped and coiled. Earrings to match. Even chain is handmade - all with Love of course :D

Details of this Sooty Jewelry Birthday Set are found at ClearlyChosen.com where I like to document steps and working details.

Air Swimmers - I want! Top cool toy!

noreply@blogger.com (Helena) — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 23:37:52 PDT

Ooh ooh, I just saw the Air Swimmers and though I have been missing from my blog posting for yonks and yonks, I just had to come by and take note of this.

The Air Swimmer was created by Blake English, Mechanical Engineer from Stanford. I think he created it rather recently (like this year, 2011) and apparently it is suppose to retail for USD39.95 - which makes it affordable for many. The kids (big and small) are sure to love it.

Air Swimmers are filled with helium and remote-controlled.

Have a look-see and check out how Desirably cools this is!!!!
