Smid aldrig dine gamle strømper ud!!! Se hvad de kan blive til. Det er ren metaformose. Skulpturerne her er lavet af pigerne på mit ældste billedskolehold. Sådan kan du gøre: Bor 4 små huller i en træklods (ca. 7 cm. høj og 12 cm. bred) Klip 2 stykker bonsaitråd (ca. 50 cm.), og stik enderne i hullerne i træklodsen. Form tråden, så den danner en interessant form Træk en nylonstrømpe ud over både ståltråd og klods (afklippede strømpebukser fungerer fint). Strømpen skal være ret stram. Form igen og hold øje med, at figuren er interessant fra alle vinkler. Hvilke historier fortæller skulpturen? Bliver den til et fabeldyr, et hoved, viser den bevægelse, er den åben eller lukket...? Når figuren er som du vil have den, fæstnes nylonstrømpen med et stykke gaffa eller en klips i bunden Nu males hele figuren med latexgrunder Når figures er tør, dekoreres den med akrylmaling. Jeg viste mine elever billeder af Nikki de Saint Phalle´s farverige skulpturer som inspiration. Vi brugte både sorte sprittuscher + Poschatuscher (på den tørre malig) til at trække konturstreger op med og til detaljer

The sculptures of Yoshitoshi Kanemaki bend and distort the human form. Often using the repetition of facial features as a means to explore the endless emotions contained within a subject, his use of wood adds a complexity to both the texture of his figures and the skill required. The artist was featured in Hi-Fructose Vol. 38 and he last appeared on HiFructose.com here.

May Day came and went so quickly for us and by the time I got the new ribbons for our Maypole it was pouring rain, even though we had a 5 meter high pole that Saxon had cut down for us. So we were unable to celebrate with the usual singing and dancing around the Maypole. So for Moran's birthday she wanted to have a Maypole and we made this one from scratch. Here is how we made it! Materials: * A pole of your choice, we cut down a tree from our block, but in the past we have used a very long piece of timber, a tall tomato stake (our first maypole was this as our children were all small then) or you could use a plastic pipe of some sort. * A hole to put the pole in and a strong lad to dig it, or a lass if you prefer. * Ribbon to length. Our pole length was 3 meters above ground with a half meter buried . So our ribbon was meters long, they could have been longer but this was more than adequate The colour and how many depends on personal choice. Our Maypole has 10 ribbons of various colours, but 10 because that is how many children we have at home at the moment. You can add or take off the ribbons at will. * metal U shape fence staples Here is an image link These are to tie the ribbon they can be taken off when not in use * hammer, shovel and perhaps a sledge hammer * flowers to decorate the top. We used silk ones as it is Autumn season here and not many flowers in our garden. * participants First off lay your pole across two 'ponies' as we call them, builders saw horses to steady the pole while you work on it. You may want to dig your hole now and check you have enough depth, for safety reasons, prior to completing your Maypole. The next thing to do is to hammer in your U shape staples around the top of the pole about 10-15 cm from the top. You can measure accurately if you like but I just 'eye-balled them in' Take your flowers and place them in and around the U shapes, with blossom part upward, holding them steady with one or two further down the pole if needed. You can see from this view that the flowers are amongst the U shapes and yet still see the U shapes for tying on the ribbon. Ribbon waiting to be tied on to the pole. The ribbon is simply tied on with a knot that can be taken off as desired. You could add more than one colour from each U shape but we did not All ready to be placed in the pre dug hole I just love the way it looks with the flowers and ribbons on top. Ready for our children to use All about to start. Ribbon wrapping around the pole Children running and leaping and praising God. We really have never learned any of the complicated dances but simple skipping and running while singing this song~ Fairy Branch Song: Here's a branch of snowy May! A branch the Fairies gave me! Who would like to dance today With the branch the fairies gave me? Dance away dance away Holding high the branch of May! Dance away dance away Holding high the branch of May! Here is a pattern to follow if you are more adventurous I hope you have enjoyed this small tutorial on making a Maypole. Really a simple and sweet tradition to share with your own children or others as well.

Logan and I first attempted to make a Greek-style pot by covering a glass vase with air-dry clay, which worked years ago for his older brothers, but this time the clay cracked as soon as it dried. His brothers were younger when they made their Greek pots out of root beer bottles covered in clay. We went back to the drawing board and decided to make a paper mache Greek-style pot, using instructions in the Story of the World Volume One Activity Book, and gleaning various ideas online. Mixing together one part Elmer's school glue and one part water, we found that smaller pieces of newspaper worked better than longer strips. Logan got a bit tired of paper mache after one layer on the balloon, and I mostly did the second layer. However, four to six layers would have been more adequate, because our pot dented in at the top a bit when I cut a hole and inserted a plastic cup, and it dented in at a spot when painted. Logan painted the pot with terra cotta and black acrylic paint. We looked up pictures of Greek pottery online for design inspiration, but for the main pictures, he re-drew a picture of the Trojan horse. The handles are made out of Model Magic and hot glued to the pot. With such a detailed project, Logan did the work off and on over a period of many weeks. It helped that he is a very detail-oriented kid.

It has been said that the Renaissance witnessed the rediscovery of the individual and is considered the first great age of portraiture. Inspired by master artists like Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden, and Hans Holbein, Moscow based photographer Alexei Sovertkov creates magnificent portrayals of the people around him. In his series titled "Digiclassicism", Sovertkov presents himself and his close friends in digital portraits that remix historical depictions.
