Scales

#texturetuesday #nature #photography
A close-up, high-detail macro photograph focusing on the surface of a pinecone. The surface is composed of numerous, tightly packed, overlapping scales. These scales are geometric, roughly diamond-shaped, and arranged in intricate, interlocking spirals. The photograph is composed to fill the entire frame with the texture, making it an abstract study of a natural pattern.

#fungifriday #mushtodon #nature #photography
A close-up photograph of four mushrooms growing on a forest floor covered in dark leaf litter. Three large, mature mushrooms with bright red caps and white spots stand tall on white stems, alongside a smaller, younger specimen. The background is a softly blurred forest of green and brown trees, with circles of dappled light filtering through the canopy.

Still warm from the kiln, covered in warm earth tones—I’m so relieved this piece came out successfully on the other side of firing. I worked on it over the course of a month and remembered to document moments of process which I think I’ll share in a thread […]

Me standing in my back yard holding a large pot in front of me with both hands. It borrows its spherical form from Nigerian water vessels and has a short, flared neck. It is about 16” (40cm) in diameter and 14” (36cm) in height. The pot has been divided laterally into six parts and each section has been decorated with carved lines in alternating patterns: a symmetrical abstract leaf motif and a large double diamond pattern. The colors are dark brick red, olive green, dark purplish brown, dusky pink and aqua. The interior is glazed glossy aqua to reference the water this form would historically have contained. Behind me is dense foliage and small blue patch of sky. I am smiling and wearing a black and white top and red paints, only partially visible from behind the large pot.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I usually make things for people to use at home, but it seems to me that the only purpose of this bowl is to bob and spin in the Gulf.

Front of baby quilt is done!
Next steps are add batting, add backing, and figure out how I want to quilt it.
