Sunset Rock

SUNSET ROCK

This is our Backyard In The Snow. Great view of Sunset Rock with our Vernal Pond in the Foreground.

Due to enviromental Laws we’re not allowed to do much Lawnscaping other than mow, and trim some bushes.

When the conditions are right the Pond makes a great personal Skating rink.

In the Spring the Peepers and Banjo frogs are so loud you can hardly hear yourself.

In a Dry Summer most of the water in the Pond disappears.  The Pond is still active at that time with Blue Herrons, White Egrets,  Humming Birds,  Dragonflys, Foxes and whatever else can land on and crawl around in the Mud.

It’s a very interesting Place.

Can You Guess Why They Call it Sunset Rock?

WIP “Stranded on the Annisquam”

Here is a W.I.P.(work in progress)of a Painting I did of a boat at it’s mooring at Dead Low tide.
It’s Right around the Bend from the A. Piatt Andrew Bridge Looking North down the Annisquam River. It looks like it would get Dangerous at dead low tide there. You can see the photograph I used for reference in the third photo. The thing I like about Painting  compared to Photography is; you can add, subtract and move anything anywhere you’d like.  Opps! Sorry I forgot, some talented GMG  people  can do that with Photoshop.

Ready! Aim! Art?

 

Deb Clarke gave me the “Heads” up on this Info. So I knew it must’ve had something to do with Art.

Is it Art?  Is It Intelligent Design?   What do You think?

Urinal Art

This Just in from designer-daily.com;

“Sometimes your mind wanders in the most unusual places. It happened to me the other day as I was releasing the few extra beers I drank, and found myself concentrating on that little fly in the urinal. Then I thought about how that little insect made life a little better for the cleaning people who probably have less to clean, and for the customers of the place who have had a little more fun while in the restrooms (yes it doesn’t take much for a drunk guy to have fun).

So if you think about it, this simple drawing of a fly improved everybody’s life a little. But how?

  • By staying simple.
    A common advice for webdesigners is: “Don’t make the user think”. In our particular case, the urinal user doesn’t think and just follows his instinct: he pisses on that damn annoying fly that’s teasing him.
  • By understanding the user’s needs.
    In the urinating situation, all the user needs is a little guidance to focus on keeping the place clean, without even thinking about it. If the user instinctively knows what to do, your design is good.
  • By making a clever use of white space.
    Less is more, every designer knows this sentence I guess. If you designed this, many clients would probably have asked you to make the fly bigger or add more flies, which would in both cases be totally useless.”
