Learning about Catholic imagry
This image (above) is of a tapestry that I recognized (at least a replica of) in the recent Harry Potter movie. The original is rumored to hang at the New York Cloister Museum. I plan on visiting soon to take a gander at this, and more, classic Christian imagery.Here is your activity for the day: The Rosary of Seven Sorrows.
For instructions on how to actually pray through this rosary you may check out [this site]
CLICK/PRINT/COLOR/CUT!

As always click to get the full size image, and print on setting "scale to fit media".
There are 2 ways to construct this project. (1) cut out each section of beads as a strand, and glue ends into the icon bead. OR (2) cut out each bead - no precision needed - crumple each into a ball, then string them together with a needle and thread. Look at sample image below for both styles...

I can't believe I didn't know about these before!!!

So, a friend recently send me an article citing the following web sites:
ON CURATING
an independant, international, web-journal focusing on questions around curatorial practices and theory.
New Curator
will look at topics, issues and news surrounding museums and politics, technology, internationalism, individualism, expansionism, presentism and architecture. All together acting as a lens to see how the future of museums is being planned out.
Expect news, commentary, reviews and a whole bunch of museological internet fodder.

Ode to YOU xanadoo...

A long time ago I won an award for Photography. But ENOUGH about ME. This image is a tribute to those that stick to their craft and make us all the more glamorous when they remember their side-kick at formal and informal occasions. THANKS GUYS!
I hope to see more images from ALL OF YOU.
