I have been too busy to do much stitching lately so I'm getting back into the swing of things by batch making cards using machine embroidery.

These are the results

A Dragon Boat racing team performing warm up exercises by Vancouver's Science World.

 

03 June, 2023 the Vessi 500 Championship Dragon Boat Races were held at the east end of False Creek.

 

The regatta featured 3,000 paddlers and an estimated 10,000 spectators.

 

The Vessi 500 Championship features Mixed and Women’s team racing and serves as a testing ground for teams prior to the flagship dragon boat festival 23-25 June.

 

About VESSI:

Vessi was founded by three Vancouver locals who wanted to make the city’s unpredictable weather something to celebrate.

 

After a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign in 2018, Vessi’s 100% waterproof sneaker was born.

 

Today, the cult-favourite shoes have over 1 million fans around the world.

 

Vessis are designed in Vancouver and manufactured in Taiwan, China, Cambodia, and Vietnam.

 

10 November, 2022 Vessi opened its first bricks and mortar store in Burnaby's Metropolis at Metrotown.

My third attempt at sketching a pile of books to learn how to construct volumes. Proportions are still off, but the angles are more accurate than in the second attempt.

 

The books are:

Anna Ahmatova Poetry Volume 2

Memoirs of Nadezhda Mandelshtam

John E Bowlt's "Moscow and St. Petersburg in Russian's Silver age"

 

I'd love to learn more about poetry, specially the poetry of Russian Silver Age. I should start by reading through all the poetry, history and memoirs books I own.

Aleph drops in on his men during some morning exercises. It's good to be prepared at all times, never know when the next contract will arrive.

Story about a class of IMPACT (Intensive Motivational Program of Alternative Correctional Treatment) inmates in Louisiana. It's a program for first-time offenders for certain crimes that allows them to avoid incarceration in the general population and upon completion do probation. I made 6-7 trips to the prison in Gonzales, La. to follow one group from their first day there until graduation day over several months in 1989.

 

Keith Lawrence and I worked on this one for several months before it was published in the Sunday Magazine.

Since the sports facilities and gyms are still closed and I do not have many ideas for new galleries, taking new photos is therefore always a good opportunity to do some sports. Posing alone can be quite exhausting, adding some stretching and strengthening and you have a good hour of workout. So this is quite an ordinary gallery, nevertheless I think the pictures are nice. The bright leotard over the black zentai looks great with the hard, cold light.

Hope you'll like it too :-)

  

Stay safe and healthy!

I paddled right up to this cormorant at sunrise, on Florida Bay, Key Largo, Florida.

 

Debated whether to darken the cormorant-- add contrast, so that he was more of a silhouette- or allow the orange on his bill and the bit of feather detail to show through. I opted for letting that spot of orange to show thing- because you think it's a silhouette but then it's 'not. Still not sure though.

 

I welcome all critiques, I'm not thin-skinned. I prefer critical comments to pats on the back.

A simple still life (milk jug, mince pie and a clay penguin made by my daughter) for practicing painting abstract shapes made by objects, negative space around them and shadows. While painting it I had few ideas for the white-on-white type of paintings. I need to write them down and tackle them soon before the urge to paint passes by
