I would really appreciate if folks who post content that they haven't created themselves, to please give credit for the original content creator. Speaking for myself, I'd appreciate being credited if someone else is posting my original creative content, without my knowledge. It's a #respect & #ethical issue. I always try to provide credit for anything that I haven't created & share here. I think most creative artists here, tend to feel the same way.

I'm also pretty cool with folks using some of my original creative content - if they ask me for consent, first. I rarely charge for usage rights, unless my work is used for profit reasons.

My layered #PhotoArt tribute today, in honour of #Indigenous #FirstNations & #forests.
Both photos I used to create this piece were shot in the #Cowichan area.

#ThrowbackThursday

My #AlfredHitchcock #TheBirds #tribute #photoshoot #PhotographyArt #collaboration w/Lily Fawn. She brought a #FilmProjector, a #taxidermy #crow & old reel of the #ClassicFilm we both loved, to my old #PhotoStudio in #VictoriaBC . I had fun #collaborating & shooting with her.

Here's the old #pitch #video I #created with Ana De Lara for #Telus #StoryHive grant. We didn't get it but hope it will get picked up by other funders & distributors. I helped to make all popsicle puppets, the scripts & helped with edits. I was art director, cast/crew recruiter & production manager for this #VictoriaBC #FilmProject . https://youtu.be/JRo-uBSuLRk
