The cathedral is located in the Cathedral Hill neighbourhood of San Francisco, California. The present cathedral replaced one (1891-1962) of the same name. The cathedral was designed by local architects John Michael Lee, Paul A. Ryan and Angus McSweeney, collaborating renown architects Pier Luigi Nervi and Pietro Belluschi — at the time, the Dean of the School of Architecture at MIT.
Its saddle roof is composed of eight segments of hyperbolic paraboloids, in such a fashion that the bottom horizontal cross section of the roof is a square and the top cross section is a cross.
In 2017, Architecture Digest named it one of the 10 most beautiful churches in the United States.

ERICH HECKEL or German Expressionism
A magnificent exhibition in Ghent (Belgium)
At the end of 2024, the Museum of Fine Arts Ghent (MSK) dedicated an exhibition to the German artist Erich Heckel (1883-1970). Heckel was one of the leading figures of German Expressionism and a co-founder of the artists' association Brücke.
From the end of the 19th century, young artists in Germany resisted the fleeting nature of Impressionism. In Dresden, the Brücke artists' association was founded in 1905. The 22-year-old Erich Heckel was one of the co-founders. This association of self-taught artists aimed to express strong joie de vivre in a common style of bright colors and angular forms. This style is called Expressionism: the artist tries to convey inner emotions through form and color rather than objective reality.
At the outbreak of World War I, Heckel was in his early thirties. Nevertheless, he already enjoyed a solid reputation in Germany. During the war, he became acquainted with Flanders. As a nurse for the Red Cross, he traveled to Ghent, Roeselare, and Ostend. On the hospital train, assembled by Walter Kaesbach, a curator of the Berlin National Gallery, were other painters and writers. As a result, the emergency hospital at Ostend station grew into a true artists' colony. Heckel met James Ensor there and developed a special friendship with his fellow nurse, the young poet Ernst Morwitz, whose literary world had a significant influence on his visual work.
During the war, Heckel's artistic activities continued. Between their shifting duties, the members of the artists' colony had enough time to devote to their art. In addition to several paintings, many gouaches, watercolors, drawings, and graphic works have been preserved: views of Roeselare, Ostend, and Ghent, sometimes featuring picturesque figures and bathers, but also still lifes, landscapes, and seascapes.
Despite the historical context, Heckel's stay in Flanders extended beyond World War I. Heckel was not a 'war artist' but a nurse working mainly behind the front lines. As a draftsman, he made numerous sketches of the places he visited and the people he observed. As a painter, he was particularly impressed by the Flemish landscape and the North Sea, with their unique cloud formations where light always tries to break through; motifs that seemed both foreign and familiar to him. The Flemish landscapes reminded him of the early days of the Brücke, when Heckel and his friends Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff would go out to paint en plein air.

uploaded because flickr requirement 5 public photos before full access to account features.
this account created after flicker dropped google+ and therefore my old account connected with my g+ account will no longer permit me access. Yes i tried sorting this out and no yahoo are incapble of fixing it.
thus: a new flicker. The old one is here:
www.flickr.com/photos/126538735@N02/albums
www.flickr.com/photos/27342753@N02/albums
so it seems this account is a new beginning for the next level of the game, it being a time of closing of the roots which brought me thus far.
I had a root extraction this year. One of the roots is still connected to the nerve, alive, and thus a little tiny fang sticks cutely up from the gum between the other molars. It hurts like XXXX and takes months to properly heal. Don't eat sugar kids, it gives you cancer anyway. Imagine a world where sugar is banned for health reasons. It is possible...
The paintings in this series are textures for a cgi builds and videogames.
They are inspired by the coast of Wales.

An Abstract Neo-Expressionism of on a clean white background using a contrasting black and white color palette, Tokyo emerges as a modern zen garden--an oasis of tranquility amidst the urban sprawl. Cherry blossoms bloom in delicate splendor, their petals drifting on the gentle breeze like whispers of poetry. Traditional temples and shrines nestle amidst the skyscrapers, their timeless beauty a testament to Japan's rich cultural heritage. The Tokyo Skytree looms in the background, its futuristic form a stark contrast to the serenity of the gardens below. Amidst the chaos of the city, there is a sense of stillness--a reminder to pause and reflect amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life., Cinematic, Super-Resolution --ar 16:9 @Scazman
