As listed above our next topics are sweet, really funny and buddha. Yep we picked three this time, due to our own renounced reasoning… it sounded like a good idea at the time.
Have fun. Similar to last month the location has not been determined. So stay tuned, But please mark July 11th on your calendar. Have a super swell 4th of July.
Thanks everyone if I haven’t said it all ready.

texas & light projects

We collaborated on Friday June 6th this month. I’m going to chalk this one up as the most fun art nite…yet. I had a blast! They keep getting better and better. It was our first all ladies art night. No offense gentlemen we love when you are there so we appreciate those fellas that showed up late (thanks). Once again amazing projects!!! Sorry to a couple of you; we didn’t get good photos of your projects. If you would like to email a photo or anyone that couldn’t make it, also feel free to send me pics. The blog could use a little love. And I’m sure we would all like to see any new projects in the works so also keep that in mind. Thanks again everyone.

what we learned at the art sale

The wavy lines that appear above a hot grill or an asphalt road in the middle of the summer are caused by a phenomenon called refraction. Refraction is the bending of light waves, and it occurs when light passes between substances with different refractive indices — in this case, cool air and hot air. Because hot air is less dense than cool air, light speeds up when it reaches a hot surface and then curves back upwards, causing the viewer to see an image of the sky and the surface to appear wavy in the heat. This phenomenon is responsible for desert mirages, as refraction and reflection look very similar to the human eye, and the refracted image of the sky from very hot sand can look like the reflection of the sky in a pool of water.
The reason that things look wavy in the heat, instead of appearing as a stable image of the sky, is that the air temperature is not stable. Hot air naturally rises, so as air comes off the hot surface, it rises for a bit before rapidly cooling and sinking to be heated again. This constant mixing of hot and cool air produces vibration, which translates into refracted images looking wavy in the heat. A road that looks wavy in the heat can be dangerous, as it may appear that water or oil has been spilled on the road, so it is important to drive cautiously when it is hot enough for so-called "highway mirages" to appear. The sand in a desert is also prone to mirage, which thirsty travelers can notoriously interpret as an oasis.

it was hot.

Treasure / Censorship turnout

On the second day of May we all got together for our 8th Art Nite. Where in the h.e. doubles does the time go? It doesn’t really matter too much because we welcome spring with open arms. It was an awesome art night! Things got a little crafty, but DIY is where it’s at.
For those of you that missed…it was good times all around. We closed down the night with an abundance of homemade wine, compliments of Ian and his impeccable sharing skills and a nice cozy fire also compliments of Ian (yes, even in the city of York we get down) Meshed with some good musical improv and some fireside chats, we called it a nite.
Thanks everyone and thank you for making art.
