Turtle Posted August 23, 2007 Author Report Posted August 23, 2007 I found it kind of hard to get good shots of my acrylic paintings.Although, my camera picks up my sketches very well. I have not been painting for very long, Painting #5 (Le vent a pleuré pour une autre morsure lunaire) Painting #3 (no name) B) :hihi: B) I have trouble with the phtography as well. One of these days I may follow up on my threat to hunt down a professional to shoot my paintings in a studio. :Guns: I really like number 5 the best....no wait...number 6 is the best...no hold it!...#5; yeah. no 6... oh crap! there is no #6. :doh: #3 definitely......the size fits good...nice work...B) :) B) Quote
DougF Posted August 24, 2007 Report Posted August 24, 2007 I carved this out of a Cypress Tree root it stands 2 1/2 in tall and I have two weeks of work in it so far (still need to put some sandpaper to it) Quote
DougF Posted August 24, 2007 Report Posted August 24, 2007 This Ball and Chain I carved out of a 3 in X 3 in X 12 in Yellow Pine post,this was my First and so far only attempt at carving a chain I found that the hardest part of this project was trying to keep the links of the chain all the same size the first link is the most important I thought I had the size of the links well in hand but as you might be able to tell from the last pitcher the links turn out small, large, small, the ball part being the last part to be carved. as a foot note when I started this project I didn't know what it was going to turn into I just started to remove wood and a Ball and Chain is what was left, the next one I do I'll sketch the chain on all for sides of the block be for I start carving to insure even link size. Tools used pocket knife 4 in blade and a Hobie knife (small razor knife) for inside links. it took 6 months to carve this working 3 to 4 hr a day,if I forgot any info on this or the the head in my previous post that you would like to know about let me know and I'll be more then happy to answer you.

Drip Curl Magic Posted August 27, 2007 Report Posted August 27, 2007 dude.yerba mate over ice blended with honey and chocolate or vanilla soymilk or both.that's art for the gallery. sounds a lot like thai iced tea to me, Which is very good. Quote
Queso Posted August 27, 2007 Report Posted August 27, 2007 Yerba!Mate contains xanthines, which are alkaloids in the same family as caffeine, theophylline, and theobromine, well-known stimulants also found in coffee and chocolate. Mate also contains elements such as potassium, magnesium and manganese. [11] Caffeine content varies between 0.3% and 1.7% of dry weight (compare this to 2.5–4.5% for tea leaves, and 1.5% for ground coffee). Quote
