Antarctica New Perspectives – …..Relationship

 

 

 

Silent Change 2Quietly….. over time…. silent change….

Looking at the relationships between elements can for me bring dynamism to a medium which is in literally 2 dimensions.

In your own photography, why not have a play with placing images together and see what narrative/emotion/movement/feeling develops within you, as a whole new perspective is created as a result of juxtaposing two or more ways of originally seeing.

I have found that such richness and expansion of new experience is a consequence of just playing with and exploring what I see and feel…and the result can be quite unexpected and rich with new ways of seeing the world. Sometimes it just doesn’t work. Sometimes elements just don’t go together…. but sometimes they really do support each other to create something which is interesting, intriguing, exciting and opens new ways of thinking… They are the gems.. They expand me… They are the ones which make my life rich in my experience of my life.

I have been playing in the past week with some images and putting them together in my new perspective of Antarctica. Some work more than others…and in each of the ones I have posted here something new has been revealed to me … purely through the relationship of the elements within in them when they are placed together…and somehow that relationship speaks more when they are together than when the individual images stand alone.

I am a Journeywoman. I live my life as an explorer. An adventurer. An Observer. An Artist. There is no differentiation between how I live my life and the art that is an expression of it. It is through my experience adventuring the unknown, that I learn more about myself. My aim through this connection is to live where my expression is fully in alignment with the essence of who I am. “In the field of Fine-Art Photography, Julie stands apart from others with the way she sees the world and expresses her connection within it. Julie Stephenson’s photographs are sublime. Her work is an expression of her deep connection; and a gift to the world.”

    You have an amazing life, Julie! Sharing it with others is such a gift. I lost track of you for a while . Now I am not sure where you are living or if you are still travelling .
    I too have travelled round the world and then around the verandah of Australia, to Indonesia and lastly Cebu in 2013. Finding a way to continue the pilgrimage of life
    is a constant challenge. You have found a way through deep inner consciousness. As violence and injustices gather momentum we need people like you to remind
    us of the inner journey . Your photos reflect the created world in all its grandeur and beauty. Thank you Helen

      Thank you so much Helen for your kind words about how I approach my life. It is a privilege to be able to share with others, and I sincerely thank you for being open to see and hear me. 🙂

𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭 | 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐓𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬 Luxury Handwoven Blankets 🌏Stories from life & global adventures 🧩Woven into unique collector pieces Explore ⬇️
  • Ever had a tough week and you just know yarn that a 6-pack of yarn will be the perfect spirit lifter? Follow along to see what I make with this gorgeous @myak_fibers 

I just adore it!
  • Do you want to NOT go out and just stay home and do the things you want to do; like spinning, weaving, knitting, crafting; but feel like you should be getting dressed out of your pj’s, and going out to at least have a coffee??? 

You could role play like I did. Follow to see my next ‘outing’. 

One can never be overdressed wherever you are! Pop on your bling and do your thing! 

So it’s all sorted then?!!
  • Four things I learned from one month not buying yarn. If you’re a weaver, knitter or crocheter, I’ve done all the hard work for you! 

Save this for your own reference, and follow to see if I chat to the postman about yarn again! 

What I learned- 
1. I miss chatting to our postman about yarn.

2. I just don’t have the right pink. 

3. No one; yes no one at all gave me a gold crown. Not even a gold star! 

4. I was so sad I took up a hobby. Sewing. I bought heaps of fabric! 

Because I’ve realised I don’t even like sewing, it was all pointless. 

I’m back to weaving now. Wonder if I’ll be chatting to the postman again soon??
  • Want to enjoy your weaving more? I share tips and ideas freely. I may even make you laugh along the way. Get comfy, follow along and stay a while.

I’m a weaver. Artist. Traveller. Photographer. Bad*ss sassy weaver actually! Simple tools. Ashford rigid heddle. Gorgeous handwoven blankets, and 3 ground rules for my content! Basically, I’m just being totally REAL! Welcome along!
  • Tired of AI slop? Come follow along here if you want REAL!! They say wearing bikinis gets more followers, and AI can’t do that! I can though! 

I’m totally real; and at times slightly unhinged. Committed, sometimes ridiculous. If you want weaving tips and to get some weaving mojo, here is your space! I may even make you laugh.
  • Thinking of weaving? A rigid heddle loom is a great start. I use a really big one with a very big shuttle. It’s a 48”  @ashford_wheels_looms Rigid heddle loom. 

I like to walk rather than sit to weave so this is the perfect size for me, so I can weave my blankets. 

Come follow along to see what I weave using this very big shuttle. I may even make you laugh along the way.

Back to weaving now. So looking forward to chatting to the postman again! 🤣

Come follow along to see what I weave with my next parcel!
  • Stuck for ideas for your weaving? Use what you’ve done! I’ve woven my memories from one of our roadtrips 100 year old vintage car style, where our goal was to drive from Bangkok to London. Made it through Thailand, Laos, Tibet, Kyrgyzstan and broke down there.. lol.. but that’s another story! 

Follow for more weaving ideas and stories. I may even make you laugh!
  • Bold, sassy older weaver! I share freely all my weaving tips and ideas. Look around my space. Come follow along in my sometimes unhinged studio. Deeply committed to my art and weaving practice; but I may make you laugh.

Thinking of weaving? A rigid heddle loom is a great start. I use a really big one with a very big shuttle. It’s a 48” @ashford_wheels_looms Rigid heddle loom. I like to walk rather than sit to weave so this is the perfect size for me, so I can weave my blankets. Come follow along to see what I weave using this very big shuttle. I may even make you laugh along the way.

Four things I learned from one month not buying yarn for my weaving. Save this for your own reference! 

1. Miss chatting to our postman about yarn.
2. Just don’t have the right yellow. 
3. Nobody, yes nobody gave me a gold crown. Not even a gold star! 
4. I was so sad I took up a hobby. Sewing. I’ve bought heaps of fabric! 

So, because I’m not sure I even like sewing now, it was all pointless. 

Back to weaving now. So looking forward to chatting to the postman again! 🤣

Come follow along to see what I weave with my next parcel!

Stuck for ideas for your weaving? Use what you’ve done! I’ve woven my memories from one of our roadtrips 100 year old vintage car style, where our goal was to drive from Bangkok to London. Made it through Thailand, Laos, Tibet, Kyrgyzstan and broke down there.. lol.. but that’s another story! 

Follow for more weaving ideas and stories. I may even make you laugh!

Bold, sassy older weaver! I share freely all my weaving tips and ideas. Look around my space. Come follow along in my sometimes unhinged studio. Deeply committed to my art and weaving practice; but I may make you laugh.
