Mobile Art – Draw The Line #TAWidentity Challenge
Huge thanks to our curators and editors of our Draw the Line Column, Carol Wiebe and Peter Wilkin for selecting these wining images to our latest challenge and also for creating the wonderful accompanying video showcase. “With over 200 tagged images entered in our latest challenge ‘Identity’, selecting just nine of them for our showcase was predictably difficult yet simultaneously extremely enjoyable.

After hours of deliberation I finally settled on the nine pieces below, although I could easily have…

New Challenge for our ‘Draw the Line Column’ – AloneTogether

James Ellis is a Merge Maestro. To say he combines photos is quite an inadequate description of his work, as you will find out as you enjoy being privy to some of his approaches and techniques. And James loves line, employs it constantly, even though his subtlety of technique does not make that obvious. Over to James… My Work Is About Conveying Emotion When I work on my art I work to convey emotion. That’s the first place I start… “How am I feeling”. I also try to tell a story to get the viewer into my headspace. I may be influenced by a song… I sometimes even get a song…
