Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends

Me, Setefano and Paula Ann being silly.

I'm going to miss Setefano. I dropped him off at the bus a week ago to start a new path of his life.

Maddy had her friend Ella come over yesterday

Just after she had got into the Sudo cream, what a mess!

Rat the cat was also a target for being creamed

Last night I was really happy to jump into bed and flick the TV onto TV1 and see Artsville a gallery without walls. I love sculpture and have been talking with Mum and Lynn about doing a piece this year. It was so inspiring for me. When I did the creative challenge at UCOL a few years back I did a sculpture class with Brit, it was the best. I loved it so much that I was going to go to art school just so I could do his class, but things didn't work out that way. Here is Brit's spot on the show: http://tvnz.co.nz/artsville/s2010-agallerywithoutwalls-extra-britbunkely-video-3988193

Art Every Day Month Day 13 - Basic Colour Theory

An understanding of the basics of colour theory is essential for every artist and increases the possibilities for your work. Colours are, after all, one of the basic tools of painting. Here are some of the things I have learnt. The Colour Wheel Most color wheels are based on three primary colours, three secondary colours, and the six intermediates formed by mixing a primary with a secondary, known as tertiary colours, for a total of 12 main divisions; some add more intermediates, for 24 named colors like this one. Primary colours: Are the three colours that cannot be created by mixing other colours together - red, yellow, and blue. Secondary colours: A secondary colour is made by mixing two primary colours together: red and yellow to get orange, yellow and blue to get green, or red and blue to get purple. The secondary colour depends on the proportion in which you mix the two primaries. For example, if you add more red than yellow, you get a reddish orange,...

Art Every Day Month Day 5 - A mellow day for me.

Last night I was thought it would be fun to do different things everyday, to keep my blog interesting. I had high hopes of doing my creativity outside today but because of a snotty nose and sore eyes, I won't be venturing out there. I am going to keep it pretty simple today and create fractals. What is a fractal? A fractal is "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole," [1] a property called self-similarity . Roots of mathematically rigorous treatment of fractals can be traced back to functions studied by Karl Weierstrass , Georg Cantor and Felix Hausdorff in studying functions that were continuous but not differentiable ; however, the term fractal was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractus meaning "brok...
