Crato. God of creativity. Main deity of the pantheon of the gods of the Lego. He is elusive and capricious, he appears and disappears for periods according to his will. Wake up fans at night or distract them when they walk down the street. He loves that builders do new things or old things in new ways.
The gods of the Lego (or maybe it's "the gods of the Legos"?... never mind) have existed since the beginning of time when everything was black or dark bluish gray but they have not had work until the middle of the 20th century. Now they help and inspire thousands of fans in their task of building with small pieces of plastic.
The gods of the Lego:
Crato. God of creativity
Plao. God of planning
Lovellia. Goddess of beauty
Storos. God of storage and order
Joyo. Goddess of the play
Loso. Demon of the lost pieces
Roko. Demon of the broken builds

Crato. Los dioses del LEGO.
Crato. Dios de la creatividad. Deidad principal del panteón de los dioses del Lego. Es esquivo y caprichoso, aparece y desaparece por periodos según su voluntad. Despierta a los aficionados por las noches o les distrae cuando andan por la calle. Le encanta que los constructores hagan cosas nuevas o cosas viejas de formas nuevas.
Los dioses del Lego (o tal vez sea "los dioses de los legos"... bueno, da igual) existen desde el principio de los tiempos cuando todo era negro o gris oscuro pero no han tenido trabajo hasta mediados del siglo XX. Ahora ayudan e inspiran a miles de aficionados en su tarea de construir con las pequeñas piezas de plástico.
Los dioses del Lego:
Crato. Dios de la creatividad
Plao. Dios de la planificación
Lovellia. Diosa de la belleza
Storos. Dios del almacenamiento y el orden
Joyo. Diosa del juego
Loso. Demonio de las piezas perdidas
Roko. Demonio de las construcciones rotas

With working towards a 5mph slack at sterns, 34027 is seen passing the dead branch at little rock 16th of April 2021
This build was calling for some heavy editing so I made several attempts until I was pleased with the result.
Please enjoy!
My 50mm is one of the best lenses i've ever used, and it always forces me to think differently and creatively due to its versatility.
It doesn't matter where your biases lean. (left, right, democrat, republican) Learning to think across the spectrum gives you a greater sense of understanding and more options for creativity. :D

"Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while." - Steeve Jobs
"The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves." - Carl Gustav Yung
The picture on a stand that I've used in this composition is Chinese hand-made silk embroidery. Have you ever seen such a beautiful painting on a piece of silk satin? Just imagine embroidering such a delicate fugure with the threads and needles! But such an exquisite embroidery has been one of China's most famous art forms for many centuries. The first response people normally have when they see Chinese silk embroidered pictures (embroidery picture, needle painting or thread painting as some people would call) is that they don't believe they are hand embroidered.
Chinese embroidery paintings are well known for its rich colors comparable to an oil painting and realism comparable to photography.
To create a high quality piece, an artist needs to split a single silk thread into several thinner threads and embroider layer after layer with threads of a variety of colors to reach the final wonderful effect. One top quality silk embroidery work usually uses millions of silk threads of hundreds of different colors, taking more than one year to complete.

When gableknits posted her photo of her sampler I KNEW I had to make one too- if only to make a point to the family. This was a true labour of love. I used varigated red thread I had had for years but ran out half way down the lettering, couldn't find any more in my part of New Zealand ( and of course I didnt have the thread number anymore) so I had to unpick and redo the letters in charcoal. Still love it though!
Now off to do gableknits next phrase!
I find solace and creativity and great expanse when I turn inside and think and explore my internal world. It is my nature, it is the nature of being an introvert. I find no fault with it. I accept the alone part and find happiness within it. But I don't take my happiness for granted. Because I don't exist only within my world. There are others and I can only really, truly be happy when others are happy. Hence my eternal and unconditional love (in the face of however unrequited it may be) of the world and its people. However ugly they may act. Because that ugliness is learned. And it can be unlearned. So, I turn in to find my beauty. And when I find it, I capture it. And when it is captured, I share it (photos, words, gestures, and especially what I teach my children). And hopefully it helps others look past their ugly, and turn inside, and find their beauty, and share it. And be happy. Because that will make me happy.
Alone in the ongoing moment, and the ongoing moment is always beautiful...
The city overflows with creativity. Forged by traditions and customs, the city of Oaxaca is also defined by its inventive capacity, reflected in its streets, in art, and in its gastronomy. Knowing its challenges and challenges, Oaxacans have become dynamic thinkers, creators and actors of projects that bring unity and resilience to the city.
Its extremely rare you get to see this birds actual namesake "Red Bellied Woodpecker." Apparently "red headed" was already taken. My mother puts out oranges and grape jelly for our summer time visitors from Costa Rica like the orioles and rose breasted grosbeaks. Of course it doesn't stop our year round residents from getting a sugar high. This particular woodpecker would come in and dance circles around that branch its hanging from and finally decide its best approach as you can see (please zoom in and you can see it can only reach with its tongue). The smaller birds have no problem but this bird is too big and has learned it flips the tray up and thus can't land on it. This is proof of the creativity and intelligence of even the smaller to medium sized back yard birds we have all around us.
Big update. Added in the Large dormer and started to bring the roof sections together.
I have a bit of structural work to do in the back. Next is to work on the raising the roof ;)
I am available for commission work :)
Come join me on
Keep Dreaming in Bricks!
I love watercolors x3
I fell in love with the medium when I used them for the first time in art & design class a few months ago. <33

Etude du jour:
Par attribut, j’entends ce qu'un Univers dans lequel une substance émerge, perçoit et/ou conçoit de cette substance comme constituant son essence.
Par classe, j’entends l’ensemble des substances semblables d’un Univers en tant qu’elles partagent les mêmes attributs. Par suite, j’entends par classe, la base d’attributs qui caractérise cet ensemble.
Par métaclasse, j’entends la base d’attributs qui caractérise un ensemble de classes. À ce titre, une métaclasse est toujours une classe ; alors que l’inverse n’est pas toujours décidable.
Par instance, j’entends une occurrence singulière, dans un Univers donné, d’une substance (resp. d’une classe) qui actualise les attributs d’une classe (resp. d’une métaclasse).
( jef safi - Ontologie, classe )

The Red Dot Design Museum is located at 28 Maxwell Road. Established in November 2005, the museum is a showcase for innovative product design as well as an event and exhibition venue.
The second Red Dot Design Museum in the world, the museum is the anchor tenant in the former Singapore Traffic Police Headquarters, a colonial-era building that was converted into a creative hub known as Red Dot Traffic. The building was given conservation status by the Urban Redevelopment Authority in 2007.
Someone got creative and put a Daffodil in this group of Rhododendron flowers. It looks great even in the rain.

Study of the day:
"Il y a autant de différence entre le néant et l'espace vide que de l'espace vide au corps matériel ; et ainsi l'espace vide tient le milieu entre la matière et le néant."
( Blaise Pascal - Œuvres complètes - réponse au "père Noël" )

The line that passes between things is not the line that surrounds things, but the line that assembles and separates them at a time.
( Gilles Deleuze - Cours PARIS 8 )

I spent an afternoon at my mom’s the other day and browsed through her large stock of buttons, ribbons and old lace. A gold mine for a craft enthusiast! This is part of what I came home with. :-)

(Another Don Draper slide, this quote is from a recent episode.)
I laughed out loud when I heard this one and it's so true. Creativity can be encouraged, sure, but it can be very difficult to force. Sometimes you just have to fuck around until creativity strikes.
