Mobile Photography – Instagram TAKEOVER with @gilliannb – Gillian Brodie – Days 1 & 2

We are so excited with our latest Instagram TAKEOVER this time with @gilliannb – Gillian Brodie. She is a highly respected and talented artist and has been granted full access to our Instagram account and she is doing a magnificent job. We are very proud of her! Please take a look at her Instagram feed to see what an incredible artist she is.

On day 1 @gilliannb highlighted this image by @nineacresdesignsart – Tracey Grumbach and she writes Hi, this is @gilliannb here for @theappwhisperer. I am absolutely delighted to have been asked by Joanne to curate the page for the next 14 days ! One of the very first images that caught my eye when I logged into the account was this stunning picture by @nineacresdesignsart I love all the graphic elements in this image and how they have been compiled with such a sense of fun ! I love also that this pic started its life in the physical world, as a collage that was then brought into the digital world to have further touches added. A fantastic melding of analogue & digital”.

On day 2 @gilliannb highlighted this image by @joycoyle_nz – Joy and she writes @gilliannb here for @theappwhisperer Today I wanted to feature the truly beautiful work of @joycoyle_nz Her gorgeous NZ landscapes are really something else, and this one especially attracts me as it’s a scene I know very well ! I spent my teenage years in NZ and visited this spot more than once. This tree in Lake Wanaka is absolutely iconic & has been photographed many many times, but seeing it through Joy’s eyes is a revelation. Her unique vision & beautiful editing have transformed it into something fresh & new. I totally recommend a visit to her beautiful feed “.

Later on day 2 @gilliannb highlighted this image by @barbaranebel – Barbara Nebel and she writes @gilliannb here for @theappwhisperer Just a quick post this morning as I race off to work. I really love this bold & bright portrait by @barbaranebel I love the way the subject stares you unflinchingly in the eye and the use of strong colours and textures adds to the overall punchy effect !”

Joanne Carter, creator of the world’s most popular mobile photography and art website— TheAppWhisperer.com— TheAppWhisperer platform has been a pivotal cyberspace for mobile artists of all abilities to learn about, to explore, to celebrate and to share mobile artworks. Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said. Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London. Pioneering the world’s first mobile art online gallery - TheAppWhispererPrintSales.com has extended her reach even further, shipping from London, UK to clients in the US, Europe and The Far East to a global group of collectors looking for exclusive art to hang in their homes and offices. The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art. Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine. Her own freelance photographic journalistic work is also widely acclaimed. She has been published extensively both within the UK and the US in national and international titles. These include The Times, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Popular Photography & Imaging, dpreview, NikonPro, Which? and more recently with the BBC as a Contributor, Columnist at Vogue Italia and Contributing Editor at LensCulture. Her professional photography has also been widely exhibited throughout Europe, including Italy, Portugal and the UK. She is currently writing several books, all related to mobile art and is always open to requests for new commissions for either writing or photography projects or a combination of both.
