18 months and concentrating so hard on the flowers.
I think I may need to re-edit this one, leaving a slight yellow reflection under her chin.
Study Tip: Look for better solutions to problems
For example, if you don't understand the course material, don't just re-read it.
Try something else! Consult with the professor, a tutor, an academic advisor, a classmate, a study group, or your school's study skills center. #study #studytip
A late September 2018 visit to Packwood House, another National Trust property. Been meaning to visit this one myself for a while now!
A nice cool Sunday afternoon to visit Packwood.
Packwood House is a timber-framed Tudor manor house near Lapworth, Warwickshire. Owned by the National Trust since 1941, the house is a Grade I listed building. It has a wealth of tapestries and fine furniture, and is known for the garden of yews.
The house began as a modest timber-framed farmhouse constructed for John Fetherston between 1556 and 1560. The last member of the Fetherston family died in 1876. In 1904 the house was purchased by Birmingham industrialist Alfred Ash. It was inherited by Graham Baron Ash (Baron in this case being a name not a title) in 1925, who spent the following two decades creating a house of Tudor character. He purchased an extensive collection of 16th- and 17th-century furniture, some obtained from nearby Baddesley Clinton. The great barn of the farm was converted into a Tudor-style hall with sprung floor for dancing, and was connected to the main house by the addition of a Long Gallery in 1931.
In 1941, Ash donated the house and gardens to the National Trust in memory of his parents but continued to live in the house until 1947 when he moved to Wingfield Castle.

This little butte is near Terlingua, Texas outside the little town of Study Butte. GREAT little general store, with some of the nicest folks I've met on the road.

a scale study i did for my next design: a scaled european dragon. the scales are threedimensional what gives a very nice effect together with the right light.
whereas the general used scales(for example Kamiyas Ryu Zin or Langs Koi) decrease the area by a factor of 1/9 this one decreases the paper size by 1/4 what makes it better useable in complex models, although it may need an extra row of transition-units because the pleats are half of the general size when the scales have the same size.
In November, 1991, as part of their study of the First World War, these Arbroath Academy pupils examined artefacts such as gas masks, kit bags, tin hats and posters. They were, from left, back - Mark Farquharson, Mr Sandy Burgess and Paul Maddicks: front - Brent Lawson and Eddie Gray.
Study for Apollo CM cone surface
Full name for left side finish: Testor's Model Master Metalizer buffable Alujminum Plate.
For missions to the Moon, Apollo Command Modules had an exterior finish of aluminized kapton tape, metal side up, stuck onto the CM exterior. The resulting mirror finish looks like its been polished and buffed, not so. The tape is super shiny, and darker than bare aluminum. Not unlike the aluminized mylar yoghurt container lids below the cups.
For my money, the Chrome looks more like the mylar sample than the buffed aluminum Metalizer.
Of course, Chrome spray is harder to do a good job with...

Reportedly Herkimer's study, complete with Brown Bess and French-style colonial muskets in the back left corner. Pipes and pipe stems appear in this room and throughout the house, reflecting Herkimer's smoking habit.*

Study for Beina is the pencil work produced in advance of “Beina” which won the Kyffin Williams Drawing Prize
at Gallery Yns Mon 2012. Kyffin Williams is widely regarded as the defining artist of Wales during the 20th century. Banal symbols of every day life in this still life in the studio. The simplistic shape of the basket, the life force of the coconut pods, their femininity and their primitive history combined with rawness, powerful masculine surface making ground and connect us.

Farewell, study books. Today was my final exam. I will miss you, my printed friends. How can I ever I fill those free evenings and weekends without your company?
Last week I spent a whole lot of time and energy studying for the CBEST exam, the first step in becoming a licensed school teacher here in Oregon. It was hard, and disillusioning.. not necessarily because they were asking difficult questions so much as I haven't done a "math problem" in at least 5 years. This was the first time in my life I ever experienced test anxiety. Oy.
Because I was spending my whole life studying I bought pizza one night and ate it for three days. I ate it while writing essays and doing word problems, while finding the lowest common demoninator to subtract fractions and while testing my reading comprehension and vocabulary. It was not terribly pleasant, but at least I had pizza.
I took the test on June 11th and my final prayer before starting was "Please make this easy.. I know all the answers." When I opened my test booklet and looked at the math problems I actually laughed out loud. It was easy! And I knew all the answers! Praise be to Pizza! I don't have my scores back yet, but I feel confident.
