My costume that I had for last night's Halloween festivities. Unfortunetely after I took this pic one of the contacts ripped in half and half got stuck behind my eye, was an unplesant 10 mins but it kinda worked with one black eye and one blue. Now what to wear tonight? hmmm
For this homework assignment, we were asked to break the objects that we used in our first homework still-life painting and rearrange them.
I arranged them in a simple asymmetrical composition - this time with the bamboo table exposed rather than being covered by newsprint.
Not sure why, but it was hard diserning the lights, shadows, and color shifts in the objects this time. The only piece I really like is the one in the lower left hand corner. Overall, I feel lukewarm about this one.

My Dad decided, in his wisdom, that it would be a good idea to strim the grass growing between the cracks in the crazy paving just in front of the conservatory. He's never done this before and I think it's fair to say he won't be doing it again! Still, it did look pretty with the sun shining through it...

I found these broken pieces of a headstone at the "graveyard of headstones" at Bispebjerg Cemetary. This is where even memories of the dead die.
A graveyard is any place set aside for long-term burial of the dead, with or without monuments such as headstones. It is usually located near and administered by a church.
Since the mid-1800s, the term cemetery has become a more popular label for most burying grounds.
Graveyards were usually established at the same time as the building of the relevant place of worship (which can date back to the 8th to 14th centuries) and were often used by those families who could not afford to be buried inside or beneath the place of worship itself. In most cultures those who were vastly rich, had important professions, were part of the nobility or were of any other high social status were usually buried in individual crypts inside or beneath the relevant place of worship with an indication of the name of the deceased, date of death and other biographical data. In Europe this was often accompanied with a depiction of their family coat of arms.
Most of middle or low social status others were buried in graveyards around the relevant church again divided by social status. Families of the deceased who could afford the work of a stonemason had a headstone carved and set up over the place of burial with an indication of the name of the deceased, date of death and sometimes other biographical data. Usually, the more writing and symbols carved on the headstone, the more expensive it was. As with most other human property such as houses and means of transport, richer families used to compete for the artistic value of their family headstone in comparison to others around it, sometimes adding a statue (such as a weeping angel) on the top of the grave.
Those who could not pay for a headstone at all usually had some religious symbol made from wood on the place of burial such as a Christian cross; however, this would quickly deteriorate under the rain or snow. Some families hired a blacksmith and had large crosses made from various metals put on the place of burial. Graveyards replaced by cemeteries
Ein kaputter Reifen in Belgien am Strassenrand. Davon gibt's echt viele.
A broken tyre on the hard shoulder in Belgium. There are lots of those.
We had to dig up the concrete floor and have a new one laid.
Thanks for all the kitchen love!Thought I'd share a little of what we have had to live through to get our dream!
Broken glass. Looks dangerous, or it is that anything broken seems dangerous-- yesterday a boy and a girl jump from the 11th floor of the educational building. Boy died and girl survived. They were once lovers.....
The Broken Dishes pattern is made into these hot dish pads and each is just over 11" square. They are machine-pieced and machine-quilted, have a layer of reflective material to assist in the heat-keeping effort, and are another work in the Benni Harper Quilt Project. They now have new homes with friends who share my love of Earlene's books.
