Magical Art in the Garden



In the Summer I always spend a lot of time in the garden and visiting Open Gardens and this video is so inspiring. Sadly some of it was destroyed in the latest fires that went through Australia. How sad, art is transient at times especially in a garden!

Chinese Inspiration

I found this video while researching "The Legend of The Blue Willow Pattern.






This well known pattern is found on china ware. It is very well made and a is really animation inspiring when you break down how the set was made and how it has been produced.
I have been making printed cards with different techniques using Chinese Inspiration
and have posted these on www.quilterscottagenorfolk.blogspot.com

Leonardo Da Vinci


Leonardo da Vinci died on the 3rd of May in 1519. His inspiration for development in technology surely aided our modern inventors?

It's May Day


Its the 1st of May today and I went looking for research and liked the sound of this.

I admire the Anime artists and some of the artists work is really good atmospheric graphic art on this video.
It's amazing these days what you find when researching on the internet sometimes it's good stuff, other times uh oh!! This is on the good side!

Gone Surfing

Jenn (my daughter) and her boyfriend have gone down to Cornwall for the week to visit his family and hopefully do some swimming and surfing. I have been there done that and love the water sports! I mainly watch these days. Hopefully there will be no sharks visiting Cornwall wanting a snack!!!
This film is coming out later this year, it's a really inspirational film on how to get back on your board!
It also contains "Firework", by Katy Perry as the end theme.



Katy Perry

This video by Katy Perry is so inspirational and so true!
