Triangle Template – 36 degrees – :: Serendipity Muse ::

http://serendipitymuse.com/muse/2015/03/triangle-template-36-degrees

Doing the Muse's Bidding. Does this thing work? Triangle Template – 36 degrees. I was trying to work out a pattern for a 10-segment circular quilting block, but I couldn’t find any templates for what I wanted. So, I made one. Then I decided to give it away so that anyone could use it. Because I know that everyone really wants to make a 10-segment circular pattern with triangles, but you’re all weeping in despair because you can’t find a decent free template. Confessions of a Fractal Renderer.

Doing the Muse's Bidding. Does this thing work? Many people would think it sacrilegious to even consider selling books, but these are not. Kind of books. I acquired some crafting books from a friend, and I don’t need them, so I’ll be putting several of them up on eBay. The first set contains ideas for making cute crafts with polymer clay. Here are the links below. Read the Post Books for Sale. Does this thing work? I Made a Video (sort of). 2016, Year of Art: Day 125. 2016, Year of Art: Day 120.

Doing the Muse's Bidding. Does this thing work? Only another artist will likely understand this. And maybe programmers. Possibly engineers. And research scientists. And anyone else who has to experiment to get final results. I left the computer to compute, and went to bed. Got up this morning and checked the computer. The render had completed. Yay! Excited, I opened the render in PhotoShop. New Art for 2015. Finally: Something to Show for My Efforts. Does this thing work? I Made a Video (sort of). Melani...

Doing the Muse's Bidding. Does this thing work? When the Art Won’t Happen. Some days, you just have to say “Screw it! 8221; and move on. So, taking a deep breath, and moving on…. Although the piece I’ve been trying to render for several days. Isn’t working out, here’s one that I thought worked out great:. Fractal created in Apophysis 7x). Click the image for a larger version.

Polymer Clay: Stroppel Canes – :: Serendipity Muse ::

http://serendipitymuse.com/muse/2015/07/polymer-clay-stroppel-canes

Doing the Muse's Bidding. Does this thing work? Polymer Clay: Stroppel Canes. Here is a fun polymer clay technique, especially for packrats who like to keep all their scraps for “someday” or “another project”. It’s called a Stroppel Cane, named for Alice Stroppel, the designer who created the technique. I found a fun tutorial for a Brain Cane! Maybe I’ll make one of those and use it for this! That could be fun! Here’s a video to show you how to create your own Stroppel Cane:. Does this thing work?

Sunset over the Adriatic. June 3, 2015. Painted by the tail of a donkey. Woman in Art – why have there been no great woman artists? June 2, 2015. June 13, 2015. Need some art reading for June. Here’s a good place to start. Women in the Art World. Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists? This essay written by Linda Nochlin appeared in ArtNews in 1971. And is a good place to start in on feminist art history and art theory. And will certainly give cause for thought and hopefully discussion and further.

The Wonderful World of Words...: October 2011

http://iwritecopy4u.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html

If you're fascinated by the wonderful world of words. read on and enjoy! Friday, 28 October 2011. Here's a great new tool for artists! Have you ever been to an art exhibition and wondered how the artists come up with their 'artist's statement' (ie. the explanation of where their artistic influences come from)? Maybe like me you've wondered what on earth they mean? Here's the sort of thing I'm talking about. To see what I mean. You know where I am. Friday, 7 October 2011. Dangers of acupuncture and flying.
