Hello!

Mon Nov 30, 2009, 12:54 PM
  • Mood: Christmas Spirited
So, you've seen very very little of us. To be honest we kind of got out of the making cakes routine, in fact very little effort goes into them now. That last cake made was the turtle one, and that was not a particularly sucessful or thought out one. My dad liked it at the least.

You can, however, find my photography here: *blacklavaPRINTS and if you need to contact me, note me there, I am very very active on that account. You can see my traditional work here: ~metalbunofice and you can see my shop here: [link]

I hope you all have a good Christmas! I might try to do some pretty festive cakes and pictures related to the cakes in January, so keep your eyes open!

I'd also like to say thank you to everyone who has favourited the Japanese Cherry Blossom cake, I might try that again, since it was a big mess last time!

Over and out!!

Faery Doors for sale + contest!

Mon Sep 14, 2009, 3:02 AM
  • Mood: Eager
  • Listening to: The Best of Burlesque
  • Reading: Burlesque, The Art of the Teese
The contest has still got 2 and a half weeks to go people! Take a look here for the rules:
[link]

It's probably too difficult a competition, really. The next one will be easier, however it will be photography-only.
My current contest however is available to all media. I still need new prizes though! Features, prints, subbies, maybe you could make something? Please guys help me out here.


~FaeryPortal doors for sale!
The doors (and doors only as this point, I will add books eventually once I have made more) are going to be put on sale on etsy within a matter of days at £10 to £15 each. The price will probably go down at Christmas for the sake of gifts too.
Basically, I don't have much money to list all of them, so please note me on ~FaeryPortal stating which you would like to be listed.

Symphony No. 9 - Contest

Fri Aug 21, 2009, 12:04 PM
  • Mood: Eager
  • Listening to: The Best of Burlesque
  • Reading: Burlesque, The Art of the Teese
I am running a contest on :iconblacklavaprints:

Prizes so far consist of a print, 3 subscriptions and 3 features. Rules can be found here: [link]

The point of it is to look at the curves (or lines) of classical instruments and portray them in original ways. It could be using a human body to look like an instrument, it could be arranging related items such as sheet music or plectrums to look like an instrument, it could be photographing it in an abstract way. It could be so many things.
However what I don't want is electric guitars, or snapshots of your new instruments for the sake of showing off. I want well thought-out pieces.

All mediums are accepted - but any snapshots of electric guitars and the like will be disqualified.



See my journal for all the prizes so far, and I am also looking for people to donate new prizes.
Donating prizes will get you more exposure, and if you help me out by advertising my contest in your journals and/or signatures, you will be added onto a news feature along with all entries, credited as an advertiser.


As all mediums are accepted, none of you have any excuse for not entering, so give it a shot!!

FaeryPortal

Sat Apr 4, 2009, 6:08 PM
  • Mood: Eager
  • Reading: Belle De Jour - Further Adventures...
  • Watching: Desperate Housewives S2
:iconfaeryportal: ~FaeryPortal is my new project - I am constructing small Faery doors made from Polymer clay and painted in acrylic paints. So far I have made one Faery Door, and I have plenty more on the way. I have yet to upload any images, however, as my camera is being rubbish again, but as soon as I get new batteries and a good picture, I will begin uploading my work.

They will be available to sell to residents of the UK within a few weeks, though not all of them at once. I will take commissions in a month or so. I am still working out prices, though I expect, for residents of the UK, individual doors will cost between £5 to £10, with an added fee of about £2 for postage, and an additional £1 per extra door. I will update this journal when doors become available.




ATTENTION!!!
I am in desperate need of a new camera. Buying my prints from ~blacklavaPRINTS will enable me to use the profits to get a new camera which will allow better quality and bigger images. I have the camera picked out, I just need the money. It will be a digital SLR so that I will be able to experiment with different lenses and effects and get a better portfolio of photography. I need YOUR help to achieve this. I am adding new prints all the time so watch me to keep track. All the prints are of photographs from ~blacklava, so visit there to see the full collection. If you have any requests of photos from ~blacklava to be available as a print specifically before any others, they will be priority and submitted within a day at most of me receiving the request in note form.

Please support me in my venture to acquire a new camera. My olympus has been in a bad way for a while despite having been looked after, and has packed up almost a month ago now.

Thank you.



To see my full gallery of photos visit ~blacklava and if there is an image on there you would like to see as a print, click "request as print". If there are enough votes on any one deviation, I will add it to this prints account.

Prints will not have my personal or the deviantART watermark.

Thank you for your support.
