Method Graphic est un artiste qui me touche autant par le graphisme des ses pochoirs que par le sens qu'il leur donne de part la technique utilisée et le lieu de dépose. En particulier cette Mona Lisa qui se trouve dans une des stations du Métro qui lui correspond. Ici, point de peinture, ni de dégradation. Il s'agit d'un nettoyage sélectif ou appelé partiel cohérent. Pour finir, Photographier son travail est un vrai challenge : sombre, ombre..... de quoi se régaler selon mon approche de la photographie.
This is Lijiang's Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage site. there are tons of alleyways like this one that criss cross the Old City that are lined with vendors selling all kinds of stuff. except, they all sell the same stuff, which gives you an advantage in bargaining because you can use the walk away method, or the "the other guy gave me this price" method. except it doesn't matter, because they'll all end up ripping you off in the end. my guess is, on every item we bought anywhere in china that didn't have fixed price, we paid on average at least twice what a chinese person would pay. it's called the "foreigner tax", or as I call it, "the whitey tax".
anyway, I found the Old City to be neat the first day, but after that we'd pretty much seen it all. but there were some nice places to eat, like the one this picture is taken from, with some really good food. and I loved the guesthouse we stayed at, so all around I'd say I enjoyed the Old City.
The performers showed considerable ingenuity finding ways to get their posters as high up the advertising pillars as possible and so lessening the chances of them being covered over within the next 3 minutes.
Day 3 of my coverage of the 25th Annual Lantern Festival at Trout Lake. - Night edition. Sorry it's late. Long day of packing to move this weekend.
This frame demonstrates a few of the different movement styles, and torch styles that were employed. Be it batons, poi, hoops, staves, swords, or blankets, it was an impressive show.
I'll be posting more photos of the Lantern Festival in the next few update. I will also be adding at least a few photos by 2359 PST Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday (0659 GMT Monday, Thursday, and Saturday, 0259 EST on those days in North America).
This is something I did early on, by way of experimenting with the paint, methods of applying it and how colours blend to give new ones and patterns. Simply by spreading neat oils onto the canvas,( board in this case), with a pallet knife I could see I had the basis for a nice little seascape. I kept it simple and just added an impression of a couple of sail boats. I still like to play around with the paints which has influenced my latest effort, Stone Dead? #1, which you can see displayed next to this one.
10" x 8" oil on canvas board. Experimenting with blending neat oils gave me the basis for this calming seascape.

My first attempt at the Brenizer method. I found it a lot harder to capture hand-held and stitch to my satisfaction than others seem to have done. Is that because of my composition (lots of lines), because I had my aperture too wide (f2), because I need to take more care with the way I rotate the camera (the people are a bit soft meaning I must have moved away from them after focusing) or is it because of the software I am using? Next time I will try using a tripod with a panoramic head.
264/365 - Back in Canada for the holidays, went to whistler snowboarding. Most snow I've seen anywhere anytime. It was tits deep out there. Awesome time. This is my bro's friend Johan with a little method grab off a jump.
My typical method of quilting involves quite a lot of planning and math before I begin. after a bit of getting in my own way trying to plan everything out, I found not over analyzing and going fully for the improve quilting yielded the best results. Every time I tried to replicate a result I was left disappointed, however each time I tried something new and improved upon my skills (specifically with piecing curves on this piece) I was pleased with the outcome.
Curves are not nearly as intimidating as I had thought. I had avoided them for sometime in favor of math and rulers. I found this exercise very helpful in getting over the initial hurdle allowing me to see what I could do next with this newly acquired skill.
I was pleased with the fact that the initial exercise was basic enough that any quilter could follow, but any one looking to advance could use it as a springboard into their own projects.
"Some finishing details could be added such as pressing, using weights and how best to pin layers.
- I found that clipping the curves and pressing towards the outside of the curve resulted in a flatter finish
- When cutting multiple layers of fabric I used weights to help hold all layers in place to create a more uniform cut when mixing fabrics
- I pinned the outer curved piece on top of the interior which allowed me to manipulate the outer curved pieces to achieve a more accurate curve"
My adaptions are the results from what I found to be dissatisfactions. I clipped the curves, pinned all pieces the same way and used weights when needed.
"After experimenting and becoming comfortable with the curves from the initial exercise I began to grow the project. I started with piece that became the center medallion, built up similar to a log cabin in that each piece was added one side at a time. After this I created some of the Layered Curved blocks that would be incorporated into the whole project.
The major step I took at this point was to treat this quilt as a whole project and the larger pieces that were already created with the layered curves as one solid fabric. I continued to layer and cut curves into the larger quilt until I was satisfied with the result. I feel this resulted in a very unified quilt which displays the newly acquired skills of curved piecing prominently."

Description of work: The historic illustrations included in this project were originally published during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Many originally appeared in publications that predated the widespread use of photography for art documentation. These engravings, line drawings, and plans reflect both the technological and aesthetic standards of their time. By their very nature, they often represent subjective interpretations of the monuments and works depicted, and as such they offer fascinating insights into the cultural values of art and architectural history during the formative years of these disciplines. In the context of these images the terms ""reconstruction"" and ""rendering"" have been used to distinguish between the artists' speculative reconstruction of a ruined work from the artists' perspective drawing or rendition of the design.

Early method to heat sugar cane juice to extract molasses.
The Museum of Sugar Cane is in the Hacienda Piedechinche, just 42 km from the city of Cali, between the towns of Palmira and El Cerrito. just west of central cordillera of the Andes. To the west, lies the fertile Cauca River Valley, one of the worlds most developed regions of sugar cane plantations. On the grounds is a Colonial Hacienda House representative of eighteenth century architecture this home is surrounded by extensive gardens contain a host of native and introduced plants recreating some of the natural ecosystems of Colombia: tropical rain forest, dry forest, and desert.
Brew method: Kono MD-40
Dose: 0.90z (25.5g)
Brew water: 11.5 oz wt (11.4 fl oz or 338mL)
Total Brew time: 3m 20s
nD (refractive index): 1.3358
Sample temp: 24.6*C
% extraction yield: 20.07%
% TDS: 1.83%
Taste notes: Tastes generally balanced, sweet, but with a slightly acrid acidity, likely due to the roast (sample roast) and/or a slight overextracted brew, despite the figures above (20% should be optimal).
The fact is, an ideal brew with a Kono or Hario V60 dripper will not brew the upper-most grinds very well. If I were to reduce the effective dose by even 10% to account for this, the MojoToGo changes the % yield to 22.72, arguably slightly over-extracted.

I thought of a new method to get the ring light effect that everybody and their uncle has been doing lately. I am probably not the first one to think of this, but I haven't yet seen this elsewhere.
For this trick you need any hand-held continuous light source and a calm model. I used a headlamp (not the car variety, but the kind worn on the head) and my unprepared but patient wife.
I put the camera on a tripod in front of the model, set the aperture at f/8 and selected an exposure time of 5 seconds. I held the headlamp in my hand, at some distance below the lens. Then I tripped the shutter and slowly moved the flashlight around the lens, up on one side, over the top, down on the other side and back to below lens.
I tried to keep the flashlight pointed at her face during the circular movement, but apparently I would need more practice. As you can see in the original size, the catchlights are not absolutely circular.
My wife was sitting in a chair, her back close to a wall. The shadow around her head is not totally even, since I didn't manage to keep a constant speed and trace a perfect circle.
Apologies to my enduring model, since I don't think the ring light effect resulted in a flattering portrait. I just wanted to share the technique, if anyone would be interested.
