  26. Hi Cecile
    I own an Art Gallery in Melbourne, Australia. It’s name is Tusk Gallery. I even occasionally get queries about our art from people living in Denmark. We have many artists but the one I’d like to share with your readers is Narate Kathong. There”s a link at the top of my homepage. Narate creates a bigger rection than any artist I have ever represented.

    The first animated GIF campaign.

    “Stories about holes that go round the internet”

    This could be the brief for the first purely animated GIF ad campaign.

    For its french come-back, Polo created thirty short stories starring the mint with the hole, all silly and without end.

    Written by JWT Paris and directed by the english David Packer ( http://www.sheepfilms.co.uk ), these troustories pay homage to the geek generation and herald the return of animated GIFs.

    Discover these stories on troustories.com, with a new animated GIF every day and other secret features*, including the film « Troustories » that we offer you in preview.

    *Play with the logos and search bar to find the “trouradios”, the film and the pop(corns)-up.

    I read your blog often for design inspiration and artist links (I study Graphics at Blackpool Sixth Form) and I was wondering if you know any artists who do work similar to this artist called ‘SH3n1′ on Flickr?? I’ve looked alot on here and can’t seem to find any :/
    Heres the link – http://www.flickr.com/photos/shen_uno/5512638713/in/photostream

  74. Hey Cecilie, ive been following your blog for a long time. I seem to remember you liking some paintings or photos a while back of elderly people. They were very textual in regards to the aging of skin. I think one of them had a close up of knees. If you remember the artist or a link for them, it would be a big help.
    Thanks for all the inspiration over the years!

  85. Hi,
    my name’s Luciano and I’m a young Art Director in TBWA\Milan.

    You know, It’s pretty difficult to share a project like this in our Country: Vatican is really close, in any sense: in these days we found out we can’t even say the word “condom” on the main cannel of the free tv!

    So, here’s the point: we’re asking your help for talk about the project in your Country. If you like it, obviously.

    It’s a no-profit campaign for the Wold AIDS Day.

    We arranged a street casting to find actors for the new docu-film of a famous italian director, Luca Lucini: PER TUTTA LA VITA (For the rest of your life). We cast people from the street asking them to get AIDS to give the movie a true imprint.
    To be sincere, there wasn’t any movie. Their reactions became our campaign during the international day dedicated to fight against AIDS.

    You can see the commercial here: (subtitles are available in the “CC” button on youtube window)
    HYPERLINK : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VV63qI-auII

    And this is the official site:

    I love your blog – I use it as a source of inspiration and enjoyment all of the time.

    I have recently published my website with my most recent illustration work on it, and was wondering if on your return you would like to take a look at it and perhaps even share it if you think it is up to standard.

    Let me know what you think.

  90. Hello Cecilie,

    I’m a big fan of your blog and I took part in the making off this documentary. Hope you’ll post it on your blog. Tnx. 

    Every year, hundreds of people accross the world get struck by lightning.  Last year in the USA alone, lightning strikes claimed 272 victims – many of them fatalities. Daryn Kahn was so fascinated by the naturally-occuring electronic force, that he decided to make a documentary in the lightning capital of the world, Florida USA. So who in their right mind would actively seek out a lightning storm and actually TRY to get struck by lightning? 
    But what started as a harmless documentary, ended up as an extremely dangerous experiment.
