Glass Art - Episode 19 'Under Pressure'

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 19:22:07 GMT

Be a fly on the wall (or ceiling as the case may be) as I work on a fresco cement artwork titled "Under Pressure". This piece is the first of the "BreakAWAY!" series and will debut in my new book, "BREAKOUT! Your Pathway to Success". If you're interested in the "why" of making this piece, see my blog & video page at brithammer.com This vid was created to evoke the feeling of being under pressure and was made using time lapse photography (6000 images to be exact) shot by Armand Dijcks (also my husband) of Liquid Earth fame (ok, so I'm biased) using a Nikon D200. You can see more of his work at liquid-earth.net. Music: Ultra Violet by Way Out West available on iTunes here: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?i=331693311&id=331693024&s=143441&uo=6

Pagan's Angels

Mon, 17 Aug 2009 13:18:00 GMT

Just a little silliness to lighten your day. The title is a play on Hell's Angels or Charlie's Angels. (Take your pick) Our cat's name is Pagan, and these are her 3 kittens (almost 7 weeks old): Neo, Isabella, & Denali.

Glass Art - Episode 17

Thu, 13 Aug 2009 21:43:01 GMT

Work on my new book BREAKOUT! Your Pathway to Success is well under way. The deadline for receiving all submissions to the open call to artists is 9/9/09. If you're an artist who wants to submit images but aren't sure which 3 artworks to submit, this video is for you. I will review a limited number of your images so you know which artwork(s) to submit. Please watch the video first. Here's a brief recap how it will work: 1. Go to http://www.brithammer.com/upcoming-books/ and download the submission form. 2. If you agree to the terms of the contract, go to step 3. 3. On Flickr.com tag up to 10 images/10 artworks with bh_breakout . The images must be professional quality (i.e. sharp and free of glare, nice composition, no other objects in the image, neutral background...in short, an image fit for print). The deadline to tag images is 31 August 2009. NB: Only images on Flickr.com will be reviewed, no other photo sharing websites. 4. I will review all images tagged by 2 September and will "fave" (favorite) the images that might be suitable for inclusion in the book. I will not leave a comment. I will only "fave" images, but this is not a guarantee that I will use these images, only that they are suitable. Please only tag images if you intend to submit for the book's open call - I am doing this as a service to encourage those who might not otherwise submit. This is not meant to be a portfolio review. 5. Deadline for submissions for the book is 9 September 2009.

GLASS ART - Episode 13

Mon, 23 Mar 2009 15:15:01 GMT

It seemed like a fun idea to take a walk down memory lane and to show you how Brit's work has evolved since she started her first piece in September 2002. Although the first artwork, "Hannah's Rainbow", was a translation of a painting by an artist whose name Brit doesn't know, the rest of her works are her own. Music in this episode: "La Belle" by Artemis, available on www.music.mevio.com. For all episodes see www.brithammer.com/video
