In June, Teagan Geneviene invited me to do a virtual art show on her blog.
This was after I told her I’d met an art dealer who advised me to organize
an online portfolio.
I’m clueless about such things.
Teagan and I figured a virtual art show would give me a way to practice building a portfolio.
When she mentioned having the art show on an imaginary submarine I staged a shot in VR to use as an invite and wound up making a storyboard of Cornelis Drebbel’s undersea search for the lost paintings of Rob Goldstein.

I turned the storyboard into a video based on silent era news shorts.

The Drebbel video is a bit OTT, you’ll see what I mean when you watch it.
I’m honored Teagan chose to highlight my work on Teagn’s Books and
delighted that she let me play with Cornelis Drebbel.

I hope I did him justice.
The party at Teagan’s Books and it’s ongoing.
Bring a link to the party and feel free to leave a comment!

That was fun, Rob. Great images and I the video is awesome. Good luck pulling together your portfolio. That was great advice. I was over at Teagan’s wondering how she’s going to fit us all aboard the drebbel. You two have great imaginations! 🙂

These images and the video are wonderful, Rob. When you first mentioned “under the sea” I was hoping it meant Cornelis Drebbel’s submarine would be involved. You did him proud.

I was already gone on this post and Teagan’s post as I’m a diehard fan of your artwork, Rob, and who doesn’t love a party? But when I heard the opening notes to Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea there was no turning back. I’m also a diehard fan of that silly 60s show. I have a passion for creatures 🙂
Congrats and happy partying!

What a great show, Rob. And I love that used the theme to the ’60s TV show ‘Voyage From Under The Sea.’ I remember watching that show and how occasional, the giant sea monsters had me hiding behind the sofa. It’s probably the reason why I never learned to swim. 😀
Thanks so much for inviting us to leave a link to a post. Here’s one from me. My latest post, which has got a lot of people talking.
