She works the fibers, “agitating” them as Korean artists have for centuries before her. She passes the ball back and forth from hand to hand, swiftly tugging the shredded bits apart and pressing them back together, much as a baker might knead and pull dough. The process, the artist explains, “breaks the layers of paper and reconnects them into one piece,’’ which she ultimately forms into a sculptural sheet. Salt + coffee watercolor technique. I’ve been painting ever since I was little, but somehow, watercolors never remained in my rotation for very long.

Series 1 - part 21 - Making papier-mache beads - 2. Something Sublime: Jewelry Tutorials. I have a passion for beautiful earrings.
I love to wear them and I love to make them. Because I also crave variety, I've learned to make my own ear wires. I never buy ear wires for my handmade earrings and I don't think you should either. Ear wires are very simple and quick to make and, creating your own will give you much more versatility when it comes to shape and size. First, a quick lesson in measuring wire gauge. Insert your wire into the slot that corresponds with the size wire you think you have. Step 1: Measure the wire and trim each end so it's flush...nice and flat. Step 2: Lay your wire against a ruler (oscillating dinosaurs optional) and cut it to 2 1/2 inches, again, making sure the cutters are facing the proper direction for you to get another flat end on the piece of wire you'll be using.
Use the length of wire you just cut as a measure for cutting your second length. Jewelry Challenge-Project 5 - Something Sublime. "Pearl Pod" by Deryn Mentock-Project 5 I'm loving seeing all the beautiful projects you're doing with my summer jewelry making challenge...wow!

Lumen prints are made by taking sheets of unexposed black-and-white photo paper and placing objects or negatives on top as if you were going to make a photogram, but instead of using an enlarger you take the paper out into the sun.
The results will vary due to exposure times, density of photogram or negative, quality of light and, most importantly, the type of paper. Each paper will have a different color, depending on whether it was old or new, fiber or resin, and the manufacturer. According to an article by Jerry Burchfield (on www.freestylebiz.com), exposures can vary from half an hour to days and sometimes even months.

Watercolor instruction: techniques and painting tips for watercolorists. Watercolors & watercolor painting. Teaching Idea Generation in Art. School science labs often prescribe the experiments, but they seldom teach how to come up with an experiment. Science teachers explain the scientific method, but fail to have their students postulate things to test scientifically. Instead, they are very busy teaching about what other scientists have already postulated and tested. How can students in these classes learn how to come up with their own ideas for experiments.
Imaginative thinking is at the core of art, science, and a number of other disciplines, but the science of imaginative thinking is kept secret from students. Their teachers do not talk about it nor explain it.
