ANG: American Needlepoint Guild - Perspective By Debbie Stiehler Originally published in Needle Pointers, Oct/Nov 1995 From the editor: Debbie Stiehler of Reading, Pennsylvania is a needlework teacher and designer who is currently enrolled in Level II of the NAN Teacher Certification Program. She has taught local and regional seminars since 1989 and is a member of ANG, EGA, NAN, and NETA. Perspective is defined as “the art of picturing objects on a flat surface so as to give the appearance of distance or depth.” According to World Book Encyclopedia there are two types of perspective: aerial and linear. Click images to enlarge Now that we know about linear perspective, let’s talk about how we would divide an area so as to give it depth or distance. Mark your horizon line on your paper and choose your vanishing point for the fence. Let’s make eight fence posts. Now we draw a diagonal line from corner to corner. What if we wanted to make a marble checkered floor viewed at an angle (2-point perspective)? Cole, Alison.
fast isometric grid how-to This Quick Tip will show you – in just a few easy steps – how to make an useful isometric grid. You will learn how to use the Rectangular Grid Tool with the "SSR technique", and in less than two minutes you'll be ready to draw your isometric designs. Step 1 Open a new document. Step 2 Set the parameters of Rectangle Grid Tool. Step 3 Now, you have two alternatives. What we are going to do next is called "the SSR method". Step 4 - Scale Select the grid and go to Object > Transform > Scale, check the Non-Uniform and set the Vertical at 86,602%. Edit:The above graphic says "86.062", but the correct setting is 86.602. Step 5 - Shear Keep the grid selected from now on. Step 6 - Rotate Finally we have to rotate the grid. Step 7 Now the lines are set, all you need to do is to make Guides out of them. Conclusion You now have a playground for your ideas, and this should take only two or three minutes. Tuts+ run a Premium membership system that costs $19 a month.
DRAWING ELLIPSES at MIKE SIBLEY FINE ART I am a self-confessed Beardie lover! Only the winter mud that surrounds us prevents me from being owned by one. They exude happiness, gaiety, and joy; and my spirits soar whenever I'm near one. This drawing means a lot to me. The farmer (my former neighbour) and I spent a few glorious haymaking times together. Included are George's old tractor and baler, his fields and the Hambleton Hills behind — so you have a picture of the field behind our house and the hills beyond. Accompanying this Premier print were two smaller Companion prints, which came into being because I had so much good material left. Why Done Balin'?
Anka Zhuravleva | Designcollector™ Moscow raised and StPete based awesome artist and photographer Anka Zhuravleva invites you to be mesmerized by her latest photo-artwork series “Distorted Gravity”. Anka-Zhuravleva.com Leonardo's Perspective During the Renaissance, European artists began to study the model of nature more closely and to paint with the goal of greater realism. They learned to create lifelike people and animals, and they became skilled at creating the illusion of depth and distance on flat walls and canvases by using the techniques of linear perspective. Background: Painting in the Middle Ages. Leonardo da Vinci trained as a painter during the Renaissance and became a true master of the craft.

**Plants de Patates** - Page 1 - **Plants de Patates** Quand tu grandis en garçon manqué, quelle que soit la raison, au fond, ta plus grande envie c'est de ne pas être liée aux filles. Elles ne sont pas intéressantes. On leur interdit tellement de choses. Et puis l'adolescence. Puis le désir. Donc on te crie, tu es une fille, mais tu ne l'es pas assez, mais tu ne veux pas, mais tu n'as pas le droit d'essayer d'être autre chose, parce qu'ils veulent que tu sois une fille, mais pas une comme ça, rentre dans le rang, salope, hommasse, gouine, sorcière, freak. Aujourd'hui je réponds, systématiquement, en souriant, en riant, que "je ne suis pas une fille", ou "je ne suis pas vraiment une fille, non, je ne suis pas un garçon non plus" "oh vous savez moi je ne suis pas une fille" dès qu'un qualificatif tombe. Mais parfois j'en ai assez. Parce que JE NE SUIS PAS UNE FILLE. (English version) (please feel free to point me out any mistake or broken language) Then, teenage years. Then, desire. Therefore they tell you off. Nowadays I'm a grown-up.
Perspective Drawing 7 - Three Point Perspective Before you study the perspective of a cylinder, it helps if you understand the perspective of a circle which is explained on the previous page. A cylinder is simply a circle which is projected into three dimensions. Fig. 1. This is an illustration of a cylinder which is formed by a circle being projected vertically from the ground plane. The ellipses that outline the cylinder are all the same width. Note how the ellipse at the eye level is seen as a straight line. Fig .2. The circular curves that form the cylinder are all the same shape, but their scale reduces as they recede from the picture plane towards the vanishing point. Both of our examples use one point perspective, the simplest form of perspective drawing.

Learn to Draw - Graphite Pencil Drawing Tutorial. Work In Progress - Step-by-Step Title: "Inner Beauty" Size: 18" x 14" Medium: Charcoal, Graphite, Carbon on White Paper Step One: If you are unfamiliar with the use of frisket film, here's a video that will explain it for you: Step Two: Next, I blended the charcoal with a piece of felt and added the beginnings of wood grain. I repeated this several times to build up a solid tone. Step Three: Then, I sprayed the drawing with fixative, Peeled off the frisket and began rendering the subjects. The tape on the right shows what it looking like after I removed the real masking tape. Step Four: I have started adding the holes and lines of the notebook paper. I used charcoal for the holes to match the background. The lines on the paper were produced with a .3 mechanical pencil to keep them as sharp and clean as possible. Close-up Step Five: Here’s the final. I’ve included some close-ups to give you a little better Idea of the detail. Learn How to Draw!
A while back I wrote an article “ How Many Social Media Channels Should Your Brand Be Using? “ Which commenced like this. “I sent an invite to a past colleague of mine to be a friend on Facebook just recently and he sent me back an interesting email, which in essence said. ” I only have time for one social media channel (it happened to be LinkedIn), so don’t be offended if I politely refuse, but if you want to communicate through LinkedIn, I am more than happy to” This was both refreshingly honest and revealing about the social media “avalanche” that invites us to participate and sweeps past us every day. So this begs the question, how many social media channels should you be using for your company? Some of the big brands engage in more than ten. Multiple channnels provides many benefits. Wider audience More leverage Greater opportunity for content to go viral So far the post has received 31 comments. <a href=" Our Poll</a> in Share
Voronoi From 3d Curves Recently I have been experimenting with generating 3D voronoi structures from points arrayed along curves. The voronoi cells follow the curve and define a continuous space around the curve. Essentially the voronoi is generating surfaces that define the space that falls between these knot like curves. Because of the density of the points along the curve these interesting surfaces are generated that are reminiscent of minimal surfaces.
Gadamer's Aesthetics 1. Art as Interlocutor Gadamer's aesthetics fosters an attentiveness towards the mystery of the given and its unexpected folds of meaningfulness. Gadamer's arguments are varied, ushering the reader towards an aesthetic attentiveness rather than making iconoclastic declarations about what the aesthetic is. They embrace close readings of the poets Rilke and Celan as well as broad strategic manoeuvres which defend the cognitive status of aesthetic and hermeneutical judgements. Hermeneutics (the art and discipline of interpretation), of which Gadamer (1900–2002) is one of the twentieth century's most formidable exponents, is deeply involved in philosophical disputes over the legitimacy of claims to understanding in the visual and literary arts. Gadamer insists that a picture or image that is worthy of being called a work of art, has the power to affect us immediately. Gadamer's aesthetics is strictly anti-Kantian. 2. In The Relevance of the Beautiful Gadamer elucidates substance as follows.
Ancient World 13 Originals The history of the original 13 colonies is a tangled tale indeed. There are many ways to view the events and, in hind sight, it is easy to think you understand.
