I can't get into work today because of the snow and ice..so thought I'd make a start on this year's Christmas cards.

Experiments here and there and anywhere












Just doing a little experiment and may try some more over the next few weeks if I have the time and energy in my cells.

It's Been a While...

I still don't have any new work to put up here (well..I have sketchbook drawings and doodles but I'd really like to put those up when the projects are finished so it all makes sense!) Just to say, if anyone would like to look at www.artybuzz.com, I have been interviewed briefly on their blog as a featured artist. So yes, am currently working at a animation studio and finding time here and there to continue working on my two children's picture books..and various other things for my portfolio. One day they will be finished, yay!

Dartington C.A.L.F. Project


Rebecca Whiteman (c) Copyright 2010

I went to Dartington School of Arts the other week to sketch dancers experimenting with using new technologies (the C.A.L.F. project). It was a challenge for them to use lighting and sound to aid their dance (which they saw as a very organic thing) rather than let the technology overwhelm their performances. They were definitely successful; the dance was the most important element of the performances but the technology helped them to explore dance further. These are the two images I produced for the website from my sketches. They are both based on the type of lighting technology and dance styles they used as well as conveying conceptual meanings about the experience as a whole.
