spy -> old houses

Spion is german for spy. It is also used for small holes in houses used to watch the street before the house for danger. In use before wide-angle door spy optics or now cameras. On the link below move the mouse to the opening the old lady sits.

Or here, where Beethoven lived for a while, the very small 'window' placed 90 degree to big windows to look for hidden people you won't see through the big ones.

mansion => chateau

[chattius 2,526]

chateau -> Fettnäpfchen

My daughter travelled south france for half a year, doing an aroboristic practica and she did it. A Fettnäpfchen was a pan with fat placed near the oven to keep the fat oily. Sometimes visitors accidently put a step into it, spoiling the oil, resulting in a lot of work for the housewife to clean it up.

The german saying: Ins Fettnäpfchen treten = to step in the pot with the fat , is best translated as : to put a foot in something. Probably it has the german origin.

So why Fettnäpfchen; South france is proud of their not written occitan language and it is a Mas there. My daughter got angry looks when she asked for the direction to a winery naming it chateau.

^ Rommel, you should begin with contour drawing until you reach some proficiency with outlining the human figures. Then, gesture drawing should help you learn to capture the essence of a figure and its movement. Afterward, move on to shading. Toss a light blanket on a table or chair and try capturing its many folds. I recommend using vine charcoal and newsprint paper. Both are inexpensive and will allow you to go through lots of practice drawings.

 

Henge => numerous

There are approximately 100 Henges scattered about the United Kingdom.

All you need is a angry person to improve your painting...

Being in 11th class we had to take either music or painting. I was of cause choosing music, But with 3 of the music teachers either pregnant or in hospital I lost in the lottery who had to 'choose' painting. The theme was early Chromoluminarismus. Most normal people call it the modern way: Pointillismus, not so my teacher. We had to do a portrait of our seat neighbour in the class when he/she was doing a portrait of me.

'That is not me, you can do better...' an angry neighbour said. So I watched her carefully (nice girl btw) and watched her style. I got a real good mark for the portrait, was using very bright shining colours like Seurat did. And I took a picture with the camera, made one positive and one negative film copy to make the contures on the aquarell paper (seems I was the only one with this). Same effect as today applying a matrix like

(1 0

0 -1)

on a digital picture. Where the colour is same as in the neighbour pixel the result is 0 = white, only edges have a colour. Nice to have a big sister who was a trained photographer.

 

Numerous -> Chromoluminarismus

Chromoluminarismus => Pointillism

[gogoblender 3,070]

Pointillism -> data points

for those two reasons I the first time i read about pointillism... kind of a oracle forward on how our perceptions of our world will change, and all comprised of data points, all recordable and reproducable

[Hooyaah 2,823]

 

data points => pixels

 

(Interestingly, if one is "pixelated" one is "led astray by pixies." So, are we ever "led astray" by media on a screen full of pixels?)

[gogoblender 3,070]

I will take the pixies over the pixels any day friend!

pixels - pixies
