Figure of speech A figure of speech is the use of a word or a phrase, which transcends its literal interpretation. It can be a special repetition, arrangement or omission of words with literal meaning, or a phrase with a specialized meaning not based on the literal meaning of the words in it, as in idiom, metaphor, simile, hyperbole, personification, or synecdoche. Figures of speech often provide emphasis, freshness of expression, or clarity. Rhetoric originated as the study of the ways in which a source text can be transformed to suit the goals of the person reusing the material. The four fundamental operations[edit] The four fundamental operations, or categories of change, governing the formation of all figures of speech are:[1] addition (adiectio), also called repetition/expansion/superabundanceomission (detractio), also called subtraction/abridgement/lacktransposition (transmutatio), also called transferringpermutation (immutatio), also called switching/interchange/substitution/transmutation

12 sided calendar Download a 12 sided calendar Download a dodecahedral calendar. You may choose between PostScript and PDF format. *) Week numbering follows ISO 8601 **) PostScript software is available from Calendar on a regular dodecahedron Once upon a time I made a PostScript program to print templates for generic polyhedra called polyeder.ps. I've made a few changes to Andrew Rogers' deskcal, and wrapped it into a script to make it more available for people without knowledge in PostScript.

Hinter den Kulissen: Artiface Shooting mit Bonnie Strange | Jane Wayne News Make Up und ich, wir sind keine Freunde. Schwarze Flecken unter den Augen nach verunglückten Tuschversuchen, rosa Clownswangen wegen all des Rouges und Lippenstiftflecken auf den Zähnen – so in etwa sieht mein ganz eigener Schminkkosmos aus. Livia von der Heide ist also offensichtlich das Gegenteil von mir: Geschickt und detailverliebt beschäftigt sie sich vermutlich schon seit ihrer Kindheit mit der hohen Kunst des Gesichter-Garnierens. Aus dieser Leidenschaft ist inzwischen ein Beruf geworden: Mit Artiface launchte sie kürzlich die vielleicht erste Beauty-Plattform, die sich an echten Frauen orientiert und wöchentlich selbstproduzierte Videos herbei zaubert, mit denen sogar ich etwas anfangen kann. Seit wir die Macherinnen hinter Artiface heute Morgen persönlich kennenlernen durften, steht für uns jedenfalls fest: Wer mit so viel Herzblut dabei ist, seinen eigenen Traum zu verwirklichen, vor dem ziehen wir gern unseren imaginären Hut. Negar, Patricia, Livia & Aennikin.
The modes of drawing. Why is it that your friend is "artistic" and you are not? It may be because your friend is using a different part of the brain than you are. Your friend can "see" things differently than you can because they are interpreting what they see in a different way than you are. They're looking at the world in terms of shapes, lines, colors, and the relationships between these things. With this website, what we'll be doing here is trying to get you to see things in this way. Have you ever noticed that when you get into doing something that you really enjoy time just seems to slip away? Would you say that you're better at math than drawing? We use both modes all the time. When you were a child, you had fun drawing because you were able to put marks on a piece of paper that represented something to you.
V and Co how to: jersey knit bracelet i don't know what it is about this time of year that makes me just want to have my bare feet in the sand, be watching the sun setting into the ocean, and breathing in the warm salty air of the beach...as i get older, more and more i find myself missing that place i used to go to almost every.single.day. as a teen. (my skin doesn't miss it. as a matter of fact, i now wish i listened more and DID put SPF on my face...hindsight is 20/20). my mom calls me from her walk on the beach almost every morning...*sigh*yeah, i get a little homesick around this time of the year. heck on my pinterest my "dreaming of summer" has the most pictures in it. ah yes. i miss my ocean. case in point. this bracelet, brought a flood of memories, not because i used to have one like it but because i can totally see me wearing it by the beach, not caring that it's gotten salty and wet, because i can totally make another one in like less than 5 minutes flat when i get home. *sigh* okay... *cut off excess tails!

stencil with freezer paper (harry potter tee) Yes, I am a nerd. I came up with a brilliant idea for a Harry Potter t-shirt and I couldn't resist. "Expecto Patronum!" However, you can make whatever kind of design you want with a freezer paper stencil. I learned about the joys of freezer paper back in my early college days. Basically, freezer paper is backed with a plastic coating that will stick to soft surfaces when ironed, but it peels off cleanly and easily. To make a sweet t-shirt you will need: paper & pencil a t-shirt an iron a piece of cardboard or poster board fabric paint & brush Start by drawing your design on some regular old paper. My design kept getting bigger, so I taped two sheets together. Next, place your design underneath a sheet of freezer paper and trace it neatly with a sharpie. The marker gives your lines greater width making it easier to cut them out and paint them in later. Now place a piece of cardboard under your freezer paper to protect your table while you cut. Important: Set these shapes aside.
