Doyle who recently relocated to Hong Kong creates beautiful gestural paintings of birds, where the seemingly incomplete brushstrokes form the feathers and other details of the animal. In some strange way it reminds me of the story of the Renaissance painter Giotto who is rumored to have been able to draw a perfect circle without the aid of a compass, as if Doyle just picks up a dripping paint brush and in a few seconds paints a perfect bird. In reality his work demonstrates a profound control of the paintbrush and careful understanding of the mediums he works with. Via email he tells me: Yes, what you see is what it appears to be—strokes of paint.
Doyle most recently had a show at Skylight Gallery in 2011 and is now currently working on a new body of work in Hong Kong. 101 Simple Handmade Gift Tutorials. These simple handmade gift tutorials will make any crafty person’s heart sing with joy!

Handmade gifts make people feel special, don’t you think? ~Kim. Folding Trees Tutorials. Tea Bag Folding Tea bag folding is a paper craft that originated in Holland, where many tea bags come wrapped individually in paper packets.
By cutting each bag down to a square, the bags can be folded and then combined into a geometric shape, just like in 2D modular origami. These medallions can be used to decorate handmade greeting cards, embellish your wrapped gifts, or you could try adding a hanging loop (glue the units together first!) To make an unusual Christmas decoration. Don’t let the name ‘tea bag folding’ put you off – you can perform this craft with any small squares of coloured paper. I’m going to demonstrate one fold pattern here to give you an idea of the method – hopefully it will inspire you to look more closely at this fairly obscure papercraft… Ct_1440.jpg (JPEG Image, 1440 × 900 pixels) - Scaled (67%)
