New Representational Technique
What's interesting about this design? Absolutely nothing, except that it isn't box pleating. It also isn't hex or oct pleating.
This is a new technique I have been working with off and on for the last month or two, which for the moment I'm dubbing bird pleating, because everything is based off of 22.5 degree angle like a bird base, but patterned in a way that allows for many variations and modifications like the other pleating techniques. This however, is much, much more difficult to collapse, but, in return is very efficient. This basic folding to test the concept features 12 legs with two extra sets of mandibles, folded from only an 8x8 grid, with the final model being only two inches shorter than the paper I started with.
More will come in the future from this technique as I expand on it.
Designed by me.
Folded out of an 8x8 grid of 5" square copy paper. (Imagine what I could do with a 32 grid of tissue foil. ;D)
"The rose window at the west of the upper chapel was made in the late 15th century, later than the other windows. It is a very fine example of the flamboyant Gothic style, named for the flamelike curling designs. It is nine meters in diameter, and is composed of eighty-nine separate panels representing scenes of the Apocalypse. The 15th-century glass artists used a new technique, called silver stain, which allowed them to paint on the glass with enamel paints, and to use fire to fuse the paint onto the glass. This allowed them to modify the color, and create shading and other fine details. It was thoroughly cleaned in 2014–15, giving it greater brightness and clarity.
The upper chapel is reached by narrow stairways in the towers from lower level. The structure is simple; a rectangle 33 by 10.7 meters (108 by 35 ft), with four traverses and a apse at the east end with seven bays of windows. The most striking features are the walls, which appear to be almost entirely made of stained glass; a total of 670 square meters (7,200 sq ft) of glass, not counting the rose window at the west end. This was a clever illusion created by the master builder; each vertical support of the windows is composed of seven slender columns, which disguise their full thickness. In addition, the walls and windows are braced on the exterior by two belts of iron chain, one at the mid-level of the bays and the other at the top of the lancets; these are hidden behind the bars holding the stained glass. Additional metal supports are hidden under the eaves of the roof to brace the windows against the wind or other stress. Furthermore, the windows of the nave are slightly higher than the windows in the apse (15.5 meters, 51 ft compared with 13.7 meters, 45 ft), making the chapel appear longer than it actually is.
There are two small alcoves set into the walls on the third traverse of the chapel, with archivolts or arches richly decorated above with painting and sculpture of angels. These were the places where the King and Queen worshipped during religious services; the King on the north side, the Queen on the south.
The Sainte-Chapelle (French: [sɛ̃t ʃapɛl]; English: Holy Chapel) is a royal chapel in the Gothic style, within the medieval Palais de la Cité, the residence of the Kings of France until the 14th century, on the Île de la Cité in the River Seine in Paris, France.
Construction began sometime after 1238 and the chapel was consecrated on 26 April 1248. The Sainte-Chapelle is considered among the highest achievements of the Rayonnant period of Gothic architecture. It was commissioned by King Louis IX of France to house his collection of Passion relics, including Christ's Crown of Thorns – one of the most important relics in medieval Christendom. This was later held in the nearby Notre-Dame Cathedral until the 2019 fire, which it survived.
Along with the Conciergerie, Sainte-Chapelle is one of the earliest surviving buildings of the Capetian royal palace on the Île de la Cité. Although damaged during the French Revolution and restored in the 19th century, it has one of the most extensive 13th-century stained glass collections anywhere in the world.
The chapel is now operated as a museum by the French Centre of National Monuments, along with the nearby Conciergerie, the other remaining vestige of the original palace.
The 1st arrondissement of Paris (Ier arrondissement) is one of the 20 arrondissements of the capital city of France. In spoken French, this arrondissement is colloquially referred to as le premier (the first). It is governed locally together with the 2nd, 3rd and 4th arrondissement, with which it forms the 1st sector of Paris (Paris-Centre).
Also known as Louvre, the arrondissement is situated principally on the right bank of the River Seine. It also includes the west end of the Île de la Cité. The locality is one of the oldest areas in Paris, the Île de la Cité having been the heart of the city of Lutetia, conquered by the Romans in 52 BC, while some parts on the right bank (including Les Halles) date back to the early Middle Ages.
It is the least populated of the city's arrondissements and one of the smallest by area, with a land area of only 1.83 km2 (0.705 sq. miles, or 451 acres). A significant part of the area is occupied by the Louvre Museum and the Tuileries Gardens. The Forum des Halles is the largest shopping mall in Paris. Much of the remainder of the arrondissement is dedicated to business and administration.
Paris (French pronunciation: [paʁi]) is the capital and most populous city of France, with an estimated population of 2,150,271 residents as of 2020, in an area of 105 square kilometres (41 square miles). Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of Europe's major centres of finance, diplomacy, commerce, fashion, science and arts. The City of Paris is the centre and seat of government of the Île-de-France, or Paris Region, which has an estimated official 2020 population of 12,278,210, or about 18 percent of the population of France. The Paris Region had a GDP of €709 billion ($808 billion) in 2017. According to the Economist Intelligence Unit Worldwide Cost of Living Survey in 2018, Paris was the second most expensive city in the world, after Singapore, and ahead of Zürich, Hong Kong, Oslo and Geneva. Another source ranked Paris as most expensive, on a par with Singapore and Hong Kong, in 2018.
The city is a major railway, highway and air-transport hub served by two international airports: Paris–Charles de Gaulle (the second busiest airport in Europe) and Paris–Orly. Opened in 1900, the city's subway system, the Paris Métro, serves 5.23 million passengers daily; it is the second busiest metro system in Europe after the Moscow Metro. Gare du Nord is the 24th busiest railway station in the world, but the first located outside Japan, with 262 million passengers in 2015 Paris is especially known for its museums and architectural landmarks: the Louvre was the most visited art museum in the world in 2019, with 9.6 million visitors. The Musée d'Orsay, Musée Marmottan Monet, and Musée de l'Orangerie are noted for their collections of French Impressionist art, the Pompidou Centre Musée National d'Art Moderne has the largest collection of modern and contemporary art in Europe, and the Musée Rodin and Musée Picasso exhibit the works of two noted Parisians. The historical district along the Seine in the city centre is classified as a UNESCO Heritage Site, and popular landmarks in the city centre included the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris, on the Île de la Cité, now closed for renovation after the 15 April 2019 fire. Other popular tourist sites include the Gothic royal chapel of Sainte-Chapelle, also on the Île de la Cité; the Eiffel Tower, constructed for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1889; the Grand Palais and Petit Palais, built for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1900; the Arc de Triomphe on the Champs-Élysées, and the Basilica of Sacré-Coeur on the hill of Montmartre.
Paris received 38 million visitors in 2019, measured by hotel stays, with the largest numbers of foreign visitors coming from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and China. It was ranked as the second most visited travel destination in the world in 2019, after Bangkok and just ahead of London. The football club Paris Saint-Germain and the rugby union club Stade Français are based in Paris. The 80,000-seat Stade de France, built for the 1998 FIFA World Cup, is located just north of Paris in the neighbouring commune of Saint-Denis. Paris hosts the annual French Open Grand Slam tennis tournament on the red clay of Roland Garros. The city hosted the Olympic Games in 1900, 1924 and will host the 2024 Summer Olympics. The 1938 and 1998 FIFA World Cups, the 2007 Rugby World Cup, as well as the 1960, 1984 and 2016 UEFA European Championships were also held in the city. Every July, the Tour de France bicycle race finishes on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris." - info from Wikipedia.
Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

It was already well-known that in World War I, the Germans developed long-range artillery and bombed Paris from the German lines. As a result, the Treaty of Versailles banned the future development of the German heavy artillery, including heavy machine guns. Howver, the treaty did not salt is about rockets, which resulted in the development of "V” weapons, or "vengenace weapons" with the technique of German missiles. The "V" was short for "Vergeltungswaffen", roughly translated "vengenace weapons". They had two main types: V-1 and V-2. The V-1 was a cruise missile that employed a gasoline-powered pulse-jet engine, could produce a thrust of about 1,100 pounds. The V-1 was originally called the Fieseler Fi-103, and nickname „Höllenbund = Hellhound”. V-1 test flights began in 1941 over the Peenemunde range. The V-2 was deviloped at the same time, the technical name is Aggregat-4 (A-4), and was the world's first long-range controlled ballistic missile. The first test flight of a V-2 rocket was carried out on October 3, 1942. The rocket reached 85 kilometers, flew for 296 seconds and fell into the Baltic Sea after 190 kilometers. The V-2 rocket also became the first artificial object to travel into space by crossing the Kármán line (edge of space) with the vertical launch of MW-18014 test rocket on 20 June 1944. Development of the rocket is associated with the first civilian employee of the German missile research facility, the name Wernher von Braun aircraft engineer. He was the one who moved to the United States in 1945 after occupying base of Peenemunde by Allied Troops, and in the mid-1960s developed the Saturn V super-seavy launcher from the V-2 rocket at the Apollo program for the human discoverry of the Moon. The rocket had three stages, and was powered by liquid fuel, flown between 1967-1973, it was used for nine crewed flights to the Moon, and to launch Skylab, the first American space station. Theresore, the base of Peenemunde is also a referendum to the "cradle of modern space travel".
Between August 1943 and March 1945, the US Air Force and the Royal Air Force made a series of bombings in the framework of Hydra (otherwise: Operation Crossbow). As a result of the attacks, the Germans had the rocket manufacturing to underground plants and moving their experimental work to Poland and Austria. The V-1 rocket was already manufactured near Kassel, and one of the venues of V-2 production was in the abandoned gypsum mine of the southern Harz Mountains near Nordhausen. This mine was enormous enough for a 1-mile of extensive facilities to be recruited from Buchenwald's concentration camp at the end of August 1943. The secret name of the completed underground factory and sub-camp became "Dora". Officials estimate that from 1943 until 1945, 60,000 prisoners worked in these factories. Of these, 20,000 had died from various causes including starvation, fatigue and execution. The Wehrmacht and SS fired about 3200 rockets at English and other Western European cities under the term „Vengeance Weapon 2 (V-2)”.
The model you can see here, was created based on blueprints for the large-scale series (Baurehie B) from 1944. The colour including the picture of a naked woman sitting in the crescent moon, follows the paintwork of the original prototype 4 (Baurehie A).

The technique I am demonstrating here is what I call "unlocking wheels". The technique helps a rider safely reposition their overlapped wheel from the unsafe side of a lead rider's rear wheel to the safe side without slowing down or making contact. This technique works when you want to turn but you're blocked by being positioned on the wrong side of a rider's rear wheel. When you are stuck in this dangerous situation, if you do turn you'll touch wheels and go down. Here's the trick - By quickly getting out of the saddle and doing a "reverse bike throw", (throwing your bike rearward) your body remains in the same relative position to the other rider but your bike shoots backward enough to provide just enough clearance to steer to the safe side of the rider's rear wheel without making contact. This technique is an invaluable skill when navigating heavy peloton traffic.
'Blocking the light coming from above the 'subject' allowing light from only one direction and avoiding ugly shadows under the eyes.' - Bert Stephani
Here I put Marley under the cover of trees, slightly in from the opening infront of him.
I was stood out in the direct sunlight, shooting in.
Never really tried this (except for its basically the same situation as window light), and although this shot is a little front -focused im pleased with how soft and directional the light is, considering it was bright sunshine with clear blue skies above!
Little bit of bokeh for good measure too!

Street Art 101 - Mixed-media | Techniques mixtes | 12 – 16 years / ans
This course will introduce the street art basics to burgeoning young artists. How can classroom creations fit into public space and transform our everyday environment? Walking tours around Wakefield will inspire students to think about village space differently. We will begin with drawing and sculpture, then move on to stencil graffiti, sticker art, wheatpasting and poster art, street installations, guerilla gardening, yarn bombing. How to commission for public art projects; how store owners and street artists can build a community; which are the parameters to follow as a professional artist working in public spaces? All of those questions and much more will also be discussed in this lively course.

Ce cours vise à initier les jeunes artistes aux principes de base de l'art urbain. Comment des œuvres créées en studio peuvent-elles s'insérer dans l'espace public et transformer l'environnement de tous les jours? Des promenades guidées à pied autour du village de Wakefield inspireront les étudiants et les pousseront à percevoir à l'espace du village autrement. Nous commencerons par le dessin et la sculpture, pour ensuite explorer graffiti au pochoir, art autocollant, affiche de rue, jardins clandestins, installations de rue et tricot urbain. Comment accéder aux contrats pour les projets d'art public; comment les propriétaires de magasins et les artistes de rue peuvent-ils contribuer à créer un esprit de communauté; quels sont les paramètres à suivre en tant qu'artiste de rue professionnel? Toutes ces questions et bien d'autres seront également abordées dans le cadre de ce cours dynamique.

Inkeeping with the 'Technique' era colour tones and glossy nature. 'Mr Disco' is possibly the most Ibiza-y of all the Ibiza-y tracks on the LP and so it seemed appropriate to pay homage to the island for its fake cover.

This took me all of 5 min to do, using black WC paint, wet in wet, a cut up credit card, a 1 inch flat sable brush, and a bamboo pen. The methodology for doing this is found on Kathy Johnson's Tip Page #91d. If you are fairly new to water color painting, you will enjoy her demonstration. This doesn't show all of the techniques KJ demonstrates, but several of them.

I’ve tried many techniques and different types of tools, on different mediums while creating. I absolutely love exploring and experimenting when it comes to my creative ways of self-expression. Just recently I fell in love with watercolor. This painting method is diverse, hard to learn and very hard to master, that’s why I love practicing it and crave to get better at it. I just admire the nature of paint to make shapes, forms and tones with just a few touches of a brush, it’s very relaxing and enjoyable. Also, I just had a big co-operative project with my mathematics teacher. The goal of the project was to express the beauty of the infinity concept. I came up with a colorful, expressive sketch which in a week turned into a big graffiti piece in our mathematics classroom. It was a big challenge for me, because I hadn’t had a lot of practice with spray paint before, but I acted on my intuition most of the time. I consider it a success and a big step out of my comfort zone. I’m very grateful for my teacher who gave me this opportunity to express myself and share my creation with class friends, teachers and student generations to come. If I had to name a few artists, whom I look up to, it would be James Arthur, Vince Low, Banksy, MADc, Smug, Nychos, Agnes Cecile, Ester Roi, Ondrash, Joel Robison and Chiara Bautista.
