Chisako Ishikawa - Fish

I took this photo at an Aquarium in January 2008, in Japan.

The fish tank was surrounded by thick black curtains to create a dark environment like a darkroom and the jellyfish glow blue in the blue light.

It looked very fantastic and visionary.

Geordie Allardice - Fish

My name is Geordie Allardice I studied Arts at Tafe and then got my Degree in Fine arts at Deakin in 2004. I am currently studying Textiles at Tafe. Fish have always been a part of my life as my dads a fisherman and now that we live by the sea its hard to get away from the topic. The images I have had for a while all except for the poor fish that has all sorts of things attached to him that is recent.

The photograph above was taken of me in front of a mural I completed for the Port Fairy fishing club. It took a few weeks to paint up and many cans of acrylic exterior paint. Initially there was a mural underneath but it had become tired and worn. I painted straight over the top using it as a guide. I did vary a few things, the sun at the top, the design of the fish and its overall colour. The club was pleased and so was i.



The image above is a present for my dad on his birthday. Roughly 60cm x 45cm it is a fish with a flaming antenna coming out of its head while pulling an umbrella, breathing through a pipe and pulling the moon. Graphite on card.

July - Real Fish - Phoebe Adams

I'm pleased to announce that Seamor and Fanny the fish have a new aquarium. These two Illustrator created fish have been around since our Flash workshop a couple of months ago and they demanded to be posted. Seamor (the black one) says that cuttlefish aren't really fish they are mollusks and related to snails and slugs. So Fanny insisted that I post some real fish this time. I've made them a new tank in Photoshop using distortion, filters and drop shadows on images sourced from the web. They seem to really like their new environment so who knows when we might hear the splashes of little fins.

FISH MARKET - Anthon Suringa

Location: 'Fish Market' Baybay, Leyte, Philippines
Date: July 2007
Size (cm): w=65.02 & h=16.93
Photographer / Designer: Anthon Suringa
Material: Digital Camera & Adobe Photoshop CS2

I love fish! There's no way i would miss july's theme.

This image was captured on a digital camera at the fish market in the Philippines last year during my vacation. I use photoshop to apply blur and contrast effect.

Some of the crabs were actually alive that day waiting to be put on a hot pot! 90% of the fish in the market are actually fresh from the sea which gives customers a 100% flavor. If you love fish visit the Philippines :D

July - Fish - Phoebe Adams

Blurb: This is our Multimedia & Design cuttlefish. He/she (we not sure) likes to paint in pixels. The cuttlefish projects images it sees with its big complex eyes onto its body. Kind of like a living plasma screen. In this picture the cuttlefish is projecting the Mac OS X desktop image as it paints the pixels around it. I was just mucking around this time. Not much else to say about it but Andrea wouldn't let me post this without a blurb. BTW there's a fish in my last post too.

Daniel McKenna - Fish

According to the Japanese legend, the KOI fish swims the yellow river and when it is ready it swims towards the falls called DRAGON GATE , where if the fish succeeds in climbing the falls it will be transformed into a dragon. Based upon that legend it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement. This is why I chose a KOI fish for the beginning project as it could also represent the beginnings of a journey. More generally, the KOI fish is associated with perseverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Because of its strength
And determination to overcome obstacles, it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals. Others say it means good fortune or luck!!!!...

I think my work came out well in the end. I feel it conveys the idea well but some people might not know what a koi fish stands for. I think it works well because it’s looks like it is making it’s first leap of it’s journey to “DRAGON GATE”. All together I put about 20 hours into the final piece.

July - Fish

July's topic is....... FISH!

Look forward to seeing some sweet illustrations and interesting interpretations.

Remember, it doesn't have to be brand new work...if it hasn't been on Cuttlefish, its new to us!

June - Musician - Nathan Pye

Here's my entry for this month.

I really struggled with this topic. I had a bunch of photo's of my musical friends, but I didn't really want to use them. So I started thinking about which musicians have influenced me, which led me to my amazing friend Lee Ronald.

Lee was an incredible guitarist, but sadly passed away last year after a long battle with cancer. My design is for a tattoo memorialising him I plan on getting.

The skull references the Day of the Dead, a Mexican holiday in which those who have died are celebrated rather than mourned. The sevens significance are the date and time when Lee passed: 7:07 - 7/7/07.

The turquoise used in the swirls refer to Lee's favourite hockey jersey.

The design is still in draft form...I'm sure the tattooist will have a bit to say about it. This final will include a banner at the bottom that reads "For those lost".
