Busy Bee

I have been a busy bee updating my REDBUBBLE site. “What’s Redbubble?” I hear you ask, well they make fabulous prints from original artworks by artists much like myself, and it’s where I have been getting lots of inspirations for my own work. To compensate for my neglect, I’ll give a sneak preview of my current project.

Currently I’m working on few designs for T-shirt, which will also be available on Redbubble when I’m done, and my latest obsession is bird cages. I saw an empty bird cage used as decoration in a magazine, the clean lines of the cage hanging against a white background looks fragile and beautiful. With the absence of the bird, the cage itself is looked at as the centre of attention and till now I never thought how beautiful it can be. I’m not sure if it’s a reflection what I’m going though right now, but an empty bird cage is a metaphor for freedom, it makes me think the soul it once contained is now free, free go where ever it wants to.
