Zion National Park is filled with beautiful geological cross-bedding. A great example of this is Checkerboard Mesa. These formations are made up of ancient sand-dunes petrified back into solid sandstone from the milennium. More recent years brought significant weathering from winds and sand particles to create the horizontal bedding. The vertical lines are cracks from the region's uplift which were further worn by water flowing down from the top of the mesa. Quite incredible to see the current result of this whole process.
"Woven Palm Tree Bark BW" by Patti Deters. The bark on the trunk of this tropical Cabbage Palm (Sabal palmetto) is latticed with a woven crosshatch texture and is one of Florida's state trees. The palmetto palm tree grows up to 100 feet tall and is hurricane resistant. The bark is always eye-catching because it is so unique. Presented here as a vertical black and white, the geometric crisscross of the bark looks a bit rough, but is actually smooth to the touch. Interesting fact: The cabbage palm is one of the hosts for Monk Skipper caterpillars.

Street Art in Florence, Italy. I recently took this picture and also made the drawing. Originally, the mother and child were holding grapes. I had several ideas to replace the grapes with something more funny. I chose a camera because I'm thinking about buying a new camera. I also liked the connection between photography, painting and drawing...

The Chevrolet Monte Carlo is a two-door coupe, manufactured over six generation over model years 1969-2007 with a hiatus between 1989-94.
The second generation was introduced for 1973 and designed by Charles Stewart, Bill Porter, Leo Casillo. Now no longer referred to as a Hardtop, rather a pillared Colonade Coupe, with rear side opera windows and frameless door glass. Prominent styling features included an egg-crate grille with a Monte Carlo emblem in front and vertical taillights above the bumper. The front bumper was a large federally mandated 5 mph impact bumper required for 1973 models by federal safety standards for all passenger cars sold in the U.S., the regulations were extended in 1974 to also cover the rear bumpers. Also new was a double-shell roof for improved noise reduction and rollover protection along with the flush-mounted pull-up exterior door handles. The separate body-on-frame construction carried over for 1973, as was the basic all-coil suspension.
The standard engine was a 145 hp (108 kW) net 350 CID (5.7 L) Turbo-Fire V8. Optional engines included a 175 hp (130 kW) net 350 CID V8 with a four-barrel carburettor and a four-barrel carburetted 454 CID Turbo-Jet V8 rated at 245 hp (183 kW) net
The model had annual detail changes, for 1976 there was a new crosshatch grille and vertically mounted rectangular headlamps, along with reshaped taillights Under the hood, a new 140 hp (104 kW) 305 CID 2-barrel V8 became the standard engine with the 145 hp (108 kW) 350 2-barrel V8 and 175 hp (130 kW) 400 CID V8 both optional

A View of Anderson Peak. When I captured this image, I was on a trip for about two weeks that allowed me to really explore much of Waterton Lakes and Glacier National Parks...and it wasn't enough. Haha! That trip was the first time I'd had to really look into more of the Canadian part of this international peace park other than view from Waterton Village or the Prince of Wales Hotel. So there I was at Red Rock Canyon having just driven up the parkway. It was time to take in those tall mountains all around and soak in the views! That's the story behind this image as I looked west to Anderson Peak. I posted the original image that I captured with my Nikon D800E here on Flickr (www.flickr.com/photos/14723335@N05/11723697245/in/album-7...).
Now for the digital painting...I spent more time working on use of a crosshatch brush in adding texture to mountainside and rock surfaces. I found at the right level, it can add that feel of grit that is often not present with digital paintings. Some other areas, I used a pencil and chalk paint look for the clouds and then adjusted the shades with gray for shadows. I then added a golden hue as a midtone and finally used more white for areas in sunlight. I continued to use a technique I'd previously discussed with the blue skies in using a chalk brush and then bringing down opacity for greens in upper skies and a red-brown (or earth tones) in the lower portion near the mountains. With the trees, I initially started with a simple upside down V but then looked at other paintings and realized I needed more to show for shading and such. I went back adding patterns to create that illusion. I also added a more distinguishing color between mountainside of trees and trees nearby me. I decided on adding larches with their yellow colors. As it was September when I captured that image, it was possible but probably more likely in another month.
In the right center foreground of the digital painting, you'll find that stick figure image of me "hiking" with my Cubbies hat, loving my time exploring Waterton Lakes National Park...and wanting to explore so much more during my next visit one year soon!

it was bit challenging for me, how to make de subject fly giving its actual flight maneuver.
This 'TIME' shot is also an inspiration against my or anyones will,dreams and ambitions

After two months of work, this diorama is finally finished!
There are a lot of different features and furniture in this set. The room box itself is constructed of wood. I added square wood posts to the left front wall and a planter with rocks and plants. These features continue outside with a planter that contains the same rocks and a handmade tree.
Separating these two planters is a larger picture window. I made two matching light sconces with on/off switches; one inside, and one out.
The second interesting feature is the bright blue door with diamond cutouts, a silver door knob and a silver Mid Century Modern style starburst escutcheon plate.
I did the artwork with inspiration from a photo of the St. Louis skyline at night. It's a Mid-Century Modern abstract piece with mixed media.
The bench has tapered legs and is upholstered in a vintage style crosshatch pattern in turquoise.
The console table was a challenge, but I'm happy with the results. I built it with a functioning drawer, which Barbie demonstrates in the last few photos.
I also made a coat rack that mimics the classic Mid-Century Modern Brendan Farrell Fin Hook Rack.
I finished it off with a faux Terrazzo floor.
Yes, there are 16 photos, but I wanted to have fun with the dolls coming in from an evening out, and also take detailed photos of each element in the diorama. I also included some photos with my personal diorama to show how the entryway would look when used next to a living room scene.
“Aboriginalities" immerses you into the fascinating universe of Aboriginal painting – an art form that is both ancestral and contemporary, always rooted in spirituality. Far more than a simple physical and sensory experience, Aboriginal art invites us to rethink our connection to the earth and the universe.
As a window on the spiritual, Aboriginal art tells the story of the creation of the world – called "Dreamtime"* – and the original link between humans and the earth. The numerous motifs (dotted lines, spirals, zigzags, crosshatching...) are passed down from generation to generation by members of the same community, concealing centuries-old secrets as well as a map of their territory.
This ancestral and highly symbolic art form was originally concealed: drawn in the sand or applied on rocks on territories forbidden to laypersons. But in the early 1970s, amidst struggles for the recognition of an Aboriginal identity, the Papunya Tula community translated their cultural practices and symbolic knowledge through paint. Using non-traditional methods borrowed from Western culture (acrylics, brushes, cardboard and later canvas), the indigenous people of Australia found a modern way to express their cultural, political, social and economic struggles.
a view from the garden center table facing southeast. luckily for this shot we have some orchids, and the kalachuchi i planted a year ago is starting to bloom. i've erected bamboo shelves (extreme right) for hanging plants using bamboo plant pots, but the plants i've chosen are very expensive. so far, only the lowest shelf (not seen) is occupied - with begonias begged from a friend.
my african lorikeet is more than 4 years with me; he's been lonely since his pair managed to escape in dec 2007. but he'll respond to any bird that comes singing nearby, and he's fascinated with butterflies which aren't few here.

Bright scraps on white linen. The quilting was all done free-motion on my home machine, but I did mark the heck out of it!! After washing, the linen developed a very aged look.

With its distinctive cross-hatching patterns on a cone-shaped White Cliffs formation, Checkerboard Mesa is one of the most recognisable and photogenic landmarks in Zion National Park. It is found some 1,500m into Zion National Park when approached along Utah Route 9 from the east.
The Navajo sandstone of Checkerboard Mesa also forms the spectacular cliffs within Zion. This geographically widespread formation reaches a thickness of 670m in the park and consists almost entirely of desert sand dunes. The Mesa has two sets of lines forming the checkerboard pattern.
The horizontal lines, commonly called cross bedding, represent layers of wind-blown sand that built up into sand dunes. These dunes were then buried, and the sand grains glued together by calcite and iron oxide to form sandstone. Crossbedding can be seen in many place along the Zion Mount Carmel Highway.
The vertical lines are less common. They are actually shallow cracks that result from stress and erosion on the rock surface. These cracks are probably caused by expansion and contraction, temperature changes, wetting/drying, or a combination of these processes.
There is little in the image above to give a sense of scale, but the Mesa tops out some 180m above the road.

I often wonder what they actually imagine when they wander the house.

We were the first ones to walk down the beach after the tide went out. About a half mile into our walk, we came across this expansive curious cross-hatch pattern of cast out sand from some kind of community of creatures. It seems they were all "keeping house" after the receding sea. It looks like they came up slinging sand either front to back or side to side, and not in a radial fashion
I dug into a few of them, but found nothing. My guess is sand fleas - little shrimp-like crustaceans. Any guesses? Anyone know the responsible party?
