Heidi Lewis founded the Surface Artist Cooperative in July 2009. Other artists in the co-op include The Kelly Green Gallery, art and design by Kelly Green Barter; Boomerang Art Glass, fused glassware and jewelry by Pernille Sporon Boving; Contempo Jewelry, hand crafted by Staci Egan; Lovely Mud Pottery, by Lee Ann Jeffries; and Stefanie Kyle Design and Knowledge, a web design and computer learning center.
Located at 201 Elmwood Street at the site of the former Caroline Riley Company, the Surface Artist Cooperative provides artists with space in which to share costs and clients by providing a wide range of services. The rustic, barn-like feel of the two story property presents the participating artists with optimal creative space.
Seifert surfaces are orientable surfaces whose boundary forms a knot or link. This is a Seifert surface of the trefoil knot. See my website if you want instructions on making these!
This is pretty sweet. I was so excited to see this, and the way it works is just amazing. Awesome piece of kit!!
Hot springs are sites where groundwater emerges at the surface and the water is hotter than the human body. In many cases, hot spring water is boiling hot, or close to it. At Yellowstone in Wyoming, most hot spring water precipitates opal (hydrous silica, SiO2·nH2O), resulting in buildups of geyserite, a chemical sedimentary rock. Some Yellowstone hot springs precipitate calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Seen here is a hot spring in Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas. The algae-covered rocky buildup is calcium carbonate. Chemical sedimentary rocks of calcareous composition formed by hot spring water include "calcareous tufa" and "travertine". I'm not entirely convinced there is a difference - the terms are often used interchangeably. My understanding is that "calcareous tufa" (a horrible term, by the way) is a porous, friable precursor to travertine. Travertine also forms in caves (calcareous speleothem) and at some cold springs.
Supposedly, the original tufa/travertine deposits here have long since been destroyed and the layout of hot springs and the drainage patterns are all artificial. The modification took place to accommodate the need to pipe hot water to nearby bathhouses in early days. Tufa/travertine deposits now at the site are probably all secondary.

From park signage:
Thermal Cascade was designed to recreate the natural scene of hot spring water cascading down tufa cliffs. In cool weather the vapor is reminiscent of the clouds that once billowed from open springs along the lower slope.

Tufa Terraces
Before the bathhouse era, this lower side of the mountain was covered with massive terraces of tufa (travertine). Tufa is mostly calcium carbonate, which precipitates out as the spring water cools. In 1834 a British geologist observed that “The travertine . . . sometimes presents abrupt vertical faces of from 15 to 25 feet high.” Tufa formations are still visible along this trail.
After a short ascent past tufa outcroppings and the Thermal Cascade, Tufa Terrace Trail crosses the Grand Promenade. From there you can reach the Peak Trail and continue up Hot Springs Mountain.

THIS VALLEY, LONG KNOWN BY THE INDIANS AS “TAH-NE-CO,” “THE PLACE OF THE HOT WATERS,” AND ACCORDING TO TRADITION REGARDED BY THE DIFFERENT TRIBES AS NEUTRAL GROUND, WAS FIRST VISITED BY WHITE MEN ON SEPTEMBER 16, 1541, WHEN HERNANDO DE SOTO AND HIS MEN CAMPED IN THIS VICINITY AND WERE LED HERE BY THE INDIANS. ACCORDING TO RECORDS OF RODERIGO RONJEL, SECRETARY TO DE SOTO, AND THE “GENTLEMAN OF ELVAS,” WHO WAS ALSO A MEMBER OF THE COMPANY, THEY BATHED IN THE HOT WATERS AND DEPARTED OCTOBER 5, 1541.
THIS MARKER IS PLACED HERE BY THE HOT SPRINGS, ARKANSAS, CHAPTER OF THE DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION

Well after only four days after closure work as begun to demolish the flyover even though it was said that it would be two weeks before work would start.
Detail from a jacket woven by Dee J. Surface design and knitted sleeve detail, make this jacket very special.
A high-speed moment captured on the water as a coot gains momentum for takeoff. I love how the low light highlights the texture of the wings and the rhythmic splashes left behind on the surface. It’s always a challenge to track these birds when they decide to bolt, but the silhouette against the blue ripples really emphasizes the energy of the move.

Seifert surfaces are orientable surfaces whose boundary forms a knot or link. This is a Seifert surface of the Borromean rings, with each ring in a different colour. See my website if you want instructions on making these!
For Saturday Self Challenge 25/03/17 " Texture " in black & white .
Oh well , it was supposed to be for the challenge but have been away for a few days sans internet , thus I have missed what was meant to be a shot for the SSC . Sorry to have missed the bus .
I chose to take this shot in the garden of the bark covering ( it does not need mowing - recommended ) as you can see texture in the bark , catkins and field maple whirlygig things . I did have a second choice of texture and this time a much harder subject a brick .
Next, conservators tested the paper's ability to withstand removal of residual surface dirt and dust left on the pages. By viewing the paper under a microscope, they observed the stability of the paper fibers as they brushed the surface with a soft, goat hair-brush. After being assured the action was safe for the object, conservators cleaned the surface of all of the folios with a soft brush. Throughout the entire conservation treatment, all extraneous material found between the pages was meticulously labeled and preserved as part of the artifact's historical record.
