7 Ways Doodling Will Change Your Life As Hilary Clinton sat listening to speeches on global security and the Middle East during a Security Council meeting at the U.N., she was seen scribbling furiously on her speech in front of her. Making last minute changes? Adding questions that needed answers? But just because she was doodling doesn’t mean she wasn’t listening, and it certainly doesn’t mean she wasn’t thinking. 01. You can think of your brain as treading a fine line between arousal and inactivity. When your brain has nothing to do, current research suggests that it goes into a default mode, enabling certain circuits that let it sit and wait for the next task without using up too much energy. If it is just a matter of keeping your brain engaged, then take a leaf out of Hilary Clinton’s book and doodle whatever comes to your mind, spirals, abstract shapes, anything will do to keep your mind from falling into that default state and no longer paying attention to the outside world. 02. 03. 04. Conclusion Just doodle.

Ambigram The meaning of the ambigram may either change, or remain the same, when viewed or interpreted from different perspectives. Douglas R. Hofstadter describes an ambigram as a "calligraphic design that manages to squeeze two different readings into the selfsame set of curves". Different ambigram artists (sometimes called ambigramists) may create completely different ambigrams from the same word or words, differing in both style and form. Other names[edit] Ambigrams have also been called, among other things: vertical palindromes (1965)[1]designatures (1979)[2]inversions (1980)[3]FlipScript (2008)[4] Discovery and popularity[edit] The earliest known non-natural ambigram dates to 1893 by artist Peter Newell. From June to September, 1908, the British monthly The Strand published a series of ambigrams by different people in its "Curiosities" column. Types[edit] Ambigrams are exercises in graphic design that play with optical illusions, symmetry and visual perception. 3-Dimensional Chain Figure-ground

Art Therapy and Ecology 4 – Territories of Art Therapy Photos from Top to Bottom: Anya Gallaccio ‘That Open Space Within”, herman de vries ‘Forest Collage’ and David Nash ‘Ash Dome Drawing’ “Movement, change, light, growth and decay are the life-blood of nature, the energies that I try to tap through my work. When I work with a leaf, rock, stick, it is not just material in itself, it is an opening into the processes of life within and around it. When I leave these processes continue.” (Andy Goldsworthy) Why Art in Nature? Collected objects from nature can be assembled into displays where textures, colours and patterns are highlighted. “I use the world as I find it…A sculpture I’ve made along the way is a sort of celebration of that place, of me being there at that time in that state of mind.

Zentangle Inte visste jag att det jag höll på med när jag pratade i telefon eller när jag satt och lyssnade på föreläsningar hade ett namn - Zentangle.

Dessutom är det väldigt avstressande, nästan meditativt (därav namnet ZEN-tangle) De som "skapade" Zentangle. Har en sida som heter zentangle.com I grunden handlar det dessutom om mönster, något som jag som mattelärare också älskar. Det handlar om att utforska former, att vara kreativ och om att lyckas - och det är lätt att lyckas! Hur börjar man då? 1. 2. 3. 4. Det bästa är att det inte finns några rätt eller fel. Här är några förslag på hur man kan arbeta med Zentangle i barngrupp: I en barngrupp/skolklass hade jag börjat med att prata om mönster. Låt barnen få göra sin egen zentangle - utgå från en form; ett hjärta, en stjärna, en kvadrat, en bokstav. Gör zentangle i 2-3 grupper på lite större papper.
