Part of a series of work proposing new architectural surfaces. This is a grid of nested hexagons with linework radiating from the center of each module. It was designed, drawn and fabricated digitally. The material is mdf milled with a CNC router.
Today's prompt was Sun. The old,ancient Derwent Linemaker 0.5 pen came good again and produced the ink linework for this sketch, which was then augmented with some watercolour.

We celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied and multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.

A very quick sketch of the 19th century houses on Wigginton Road as seen from outside the entrance of York District Hospital. It was time for my better half's six monthly, post cancer, check up. I decided to make a quick sketch of the view from by the entrance (must be mad, it was about 2°C outside), it's better than worrying about what might happen. Thankfully all is well. Today her check up took about 15 minutes, just enough time to get the basic outline into my pocket size Molekskine sketchbook. I added the colour and a bit of strengthening to the linework from memory back home in the warm. Drawn with a Staedtler Pigment Liner 0.05 pen and Winsor and Newton watercolours.

Relates to 'See the Wood for the Trees (Pelican Gold) by Su_G', which is a color variation of 'See the Wood for the Trees (Green) by Su_G': my entry in Spoonflower's 'Continuous Line Contour' Design Challenge (placed 74th out of a field of 750 entries - thanks to everyone who voted!).
The link for voting will be www.spoonflower.com/contest_voters_temp/new?contest_id=591 - open for one week only. So far there are 730 entries (fewer than many recent contests!). Voting could be fun as designers have seen many different things from their windows!

This wide-rimmed, translucent-glazed dish, seen in the same Bruges shop window, is not quite what it first appears to be. Though it borrows surface elements from Japanese export porcelains—notably Arita Imari and Kakiemon styles—the hesitant linework, glaze corrections, and European form factor tell another story.
🔍 What It Isn’t
Despite first impressions, this is not Japanese porcelain.
The glaze is translucent, not tin-opacified like majolica or faïence.
The design is too geometrically plotted and lacks the fluid spontaneity of Japanese brushwork.
Motifs like the orange grape clusters and pinecone-like forms owe more to European folk or Arts and Crafts decoration than to East Asian originals.
🎨 Design and Technique
The central floral medallion feels almost heraldic, rather than organic.
The fan-like radial pattern and banded knot dividers suggest a Western stylization of textile motifs.
Colors include blue, red-orange, green, and black under a clear glaze, with visible pooling and uneven application—hallmarks of amateur or student production.
Probable Origin and Date
This is most likely a Japonisme-influenced studio ceramic, made in Europe—perhaps Belgium, the Netherlands, or Britain—in the late 19th or early 20th century. It may be the work of a student or semi-professional ceramicist, trained in one of the many decorative arts schools inspired by the Arts and Crafts Movement or Aesthetic Movement, where Japanese motifs were studied and reinterpreted with European sensibilities.
Comparative Traditions
Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian for stylized glazes and design.
De Morgan School pieces, especially from less experienced hands.
Dutch Hague School ceramics, known for blending Japanese and Art Nouveau influences.
Kunstgewerbeschule (Schools of Applied Art) works from Austria or Germany, where cross-cultural experimentation was encouraged.
✍️ Summary
An intriguing example of cultural translation in clay: Japanese-inspired, but distinctly European in form, material, and execution. It exemplifies the moment when Japonisme filtered into European teaching studios and decorative workshops, resulting in charming, hybrid works that speak as much of ambition and curiosity as they do of technical polish.

Дом-корабль или «Дом атомщиков» на Тульской. Обожаю дома эпохи позднесоветского неоконструктивизма. Раньше дом еще был белоснежный и смотрелся действительно как океанский лайнер. Я в детстве жила в доме похожей стилистики, тоже воспринимала его как корабль.

Тема - клещ.
Клещи переносят инфекции, поэтому пусть будет главное здание Сокольнической инфекционной больницы. Она построена в 1899-1904 годах, и была первой специализированной инфекционной больницей в Москве.
The coloured version of www.flickr.com/photos/chrissketches/29161864335/in/datepo.... It's okay, I guess, but I really liked the linework sans colour...
