Stop the wrecking ball on the Main
The Architectural heritage of St. Laurent Blvd. and its greystones must be preserved. It’s a powerful symbol of our identity By Phyllis Lambert and Dinu Bumbaru June 5, 2012

From IndyFoto-
These photos in part explain why we have to protect this area from the corporate developers and politicians who want to "clean Up' what makes Montreal so special! Razing heritage buildings which host events such as this is their solution. Some of these buildings have already been reduced to a mere facade, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the nefarious plot is now to demolish them completely and reduce it to a parking lot until financing to build a modern monstrosity materializes... Montrealers* (*NOTE: Yes- YOU of the "pots and spoon" crew) could also apply their considerable efforts to saving these beautiful buildings- interiors included, before there is nothing unique left about Montreal.
This makes me ache inside... I lived on the Main (near des Pins) in a similar building from 1983- 1994. My 2 storey 8 1/2 was part of the '80s Montreal punk scene, where I created my photos and brought up my son. That apartment was my refuge and my muse, informing much of my work at the time. I often thought about the unknown people who had lived there before me, dating back to 1898, and wondered what diverse memories were infused within those walls. 3816 St.Laurent haunts my dreams still and I long for it, though it's been since ruined by bad reno jobs and further landlord neglect, and isn't the same. (Well, and nor am I!) The solution is not to destroy but to respectfully repair and maintain.
I look at the buildings scheduled to be demolished in the 1200 block and know them intimately, inside and out. They are a reflection of my history in the city, and ghosts long forgotten.Some of us are tenants and others shop keepers, and we are all links in the history of these buildings. The legacy we leave behind is the art, songs and dance that were created within the walls, the families we raised, the people we served and the friendships we nurtured. Should this be reduced to a rubble, so all that will remain for future generations to physically experience is a city ordained plaque displaying some misty B&W photos on the wall of a glass tower. No affordable space left to create their own contributions to our social history. There's little chance of that in an upscale office building, even one allegedly 'dedicated to art and culture".

SampleBoard.com presents a new and innovative way to create and present your ideas and vision by using the web-based interactive editor. It enables designers from different design disciplines (graphic, web, interiors, landscape, fashion and wedding planning) and backgrounds to collaborate on design projects, share their creative portfolio online and get exposure for business opportunities through the public design directory.
The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house. They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never allow us to bring about genuine change.

For Tracey Clark's Picture Summer -
"Looking back at the lazy, hazy days of summer from years past can stir up all kinds of melancholy. As you're looking at your life today, shoot a scene you know you'll want to look back on.
Note: There are a number of ways to create dreamscape imagery. Shooting your subject slightly out of focus is one easy way to get the feeling you're looking for. There are also ways to manipulate colors and vibe in post processing to get your desired effect."
Not my usual style, but I think it's got the effect that I was going for.

I think it looks cuter without the jacket even tho i like the jacket and the whole military thing (the olive color looks washed out here)
January's word at the One Word Project is create.
So, using fushia ink in calligraphy pens(that now graces my fingers tips and won't wash away), lemon oil, small stones and a whispered incantation, that which I seek shall truly be mine (I'm sure of it.)
Failing that my friend has inspired me to create a big pot of steaming hot broccoli & cheddar soup which I just know will cure anything.
By the way, a little book of spells wants you to know that lemons are good for mental clarity, purification, commitment & longevity. I'm sure Meyer lemons work best. ;)
For those who seek it, pineapples are great to induce love, prosperity, protection, healing & friendship.
Happy creating, be it art, photos or spells.

The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAF)S East African regional program has selected six sites to test interventions that address risks related to climate change and variability. Featured here is the Lower Nyando site in Kenya and ongoing activities related to making baskets as a way to diversity livelihoods and income sources. Which could help create resilience to climate change in the long term. Photos. K. Trautmann.

Today, the preschool teachers were in their classrooms, cleaning things up. They vacuumed carpets, wiped down hard surfaces, ...and of course, cleaned toys, in anticipation of the students' arrival. I went into the kitchen and found this scene. Naked women and camo-clad men, heaped in a dish drainer. I suppose the unintentional symbolism is self-evident. As culture creates gender, we create it intentionally unequal . . .and dehumanizing. What we're teaching our children will last a lifetime. Day four for Project 365.
We design and create fairy houses, dollhouses, fairy furniture and dollhouse miniatures for all variety of magical beings :). All products are lovingly crafted in our woodland studio using forest bits and fairy dust (which was acquired some time ago)... All items are 1:12 scale, that is 1" = 1'.
Thanks for looking!
The Altes Rathaus in the middle of the Regnitz river in Bamberg, Germany, is a world heritage site and a very popular tourist attraction.
According to legend the bishop of Bamberg did not grant the citizens any land for the construction of a town hall. This prompted the townsfolk to ram stakes into the river Regnitz to create an artificial island, on which they built the town hall they so badly wanted.
Municipalities will receive $1.1 billion to build core infrastructure that will get Albertans working, support municipal and public transit operating costs and create thousands of good-paying jobs now.
Alberta’s government is providing municipalities with $500 million in additional funding to build shovel-ready infrastructure projects starting in 2020, creating thousands of jobs as part of Alberta’s Recovery Plan. In addition, Alberta will match $233 million in federal funding to support municipal operating costs during the pandemic and $70 million to support public transit operating costs – for a total of $606 million under the Safe Restart Agreement.
“The past five months have been tough for Albertans as we faced the global coronavirus recession, the unprecedented collapse of energy prices, and the COVID-19 pandemic. But Albertans are resilient, and Alberta’s Recovery Plan is a bold plan to build, diversify, and create jobs. This investment will provide municipalities with the funding they need to get through this crisis, create good jobs now, and build the infrastructure that will fuel economic growth in our province for generations to come.” said Premier Jason Kenney in Edmonton on Tuesday July 28, 2020.
The $500-million municipal stimulus program, which boosts municipal infrastructure funding by almost 30 per cent, will create an estimated 2,500 jobs from projects that will begin construction in 2020 or 2021.
Municipalities and Metis Settlements may begin applying for funding to build roads, bridges, water and wastewater treatment plants, and other important infrastructure that would not have been built in 2020 or 2021 without the stimulus.
“Alberta’s communities play a critical role in our economy and we want to help them get shovel-ready projects into the ground immediately to create jobs, drive economic growth and improve Alberta’s competitive position. We’re also asking municipalities to reduce taxes and red tape to make it easier to start up a new business, speed up approvals for development permits and make their municipality a better place to invest. Together, we’ll continue to make Alberta the best place to live and do business in North America.” said Kaycee Madu, Minister of Municipal Affairs.
“Alberta’s government is investing in roads, bridges, water and wastewater infrastructure that Albertans want and need, diversifying our economy and creating thousands of jobs in the process. I look forward to working with our municipal partners to build worthwhile projects that help develop and grow new economic sectors, and create much-needed jobs today.” said Ric McIver, Minister of Transportation.
Even before the municipal stimulus program, Alberta had committed $1.85 billion in Budget 2020 for municipalities including the Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI) and $244 million from the federal government’s Gas Tax Fund.
Alberta’s Recovery Plan is a bold, ambitious long-term strategy to build, diversify, and create tens of thousands of jobs now. By building schools, roads and other core infrastructure we are benefitting our communities. By diversifying our economy and attracting investment with Canada’s most competitive tax environment, we are putting Alberta on a path for a generation of growth. Alberta came together to save lives by flattening the curve and now we must do the same to save livelihoods, grow and thrive. (photography by Chris Schwarz/Government of Alberta)
This was my submission, "Create..." to the 1st Annual Chain-link Fence Art Exhibition and Competition. Had a lot of fun with this, inspired by chain-link fencing of which I’ve never worked with before, tricky stuff ;) My arms got a work out.
MATERIALS: a 4 ft. x 4ft. scrap piece of chain-link fencing, a found barbeque grill (web), crystals, glass beads, found metal nuts/bolts/washers, metal wire and scrap telephone wire. I wanted people to discover the message in the spider’s web, “create” that would tie into the leading ant’s message of peace, happiness, laughter, love, opportunity, dreams, something(!). It’s good fun if we choose to create positive things for ourselves and the world :)

There was no easy way to get a snap without angular distortion or flash glare. So, i've used FD's toys (finally) to create this collage of all four views.
The painting is just a doodle, more pleasure taken in the application of the paint than anything else. On paperboard, an application of acrylic gesso (in varying thicknesses and textures). While the gesso was still rather damp, i finger painted with a heavy body acrylic (tinted with fluid acrylics) mixed with Golden's tar gel -- what a wonderful feel to that paint! Then fluid gold acrylic with the fluid medium was washed over different sections.
