I do landscaping, birds and nature. I've painted 15 different birds and at least 35-40 different landscapes. So far I have given some away and have some I've put for sale in Indianapolis.

You use a plastic grid, yarn and a needle that looks like a sewing needle but its 20x bigger and has no sharp end. Im trying to figure out whats this called and figure out how to sew all the alphabet letters on the grid. Is there a website or something that explains how to do all the letters or something??

Back in the early 90s, I worked with an attorney who introduced me to the work of an artist who (at least at that time) was creating paintings that depicted businessmen in suits in violent scenes.

The two I remember clearly were (1) two men in dark blue suits fistfighting... one guy had the other by the tie and they were pummeling each other, and (2) a man hanging by his necktie, as if by a noose.

I can't remember the artist's name, so I'm hoping someone can help me. I know if I hear the correct name, I'll know it. As I recall, his wasn't a common surname.

I could easily be mistaken, but I seem to recall the artist's name being something like Borko or Boiko or Bierko or something along those lines.

Can anyone help me with this one?

I am new to photography and I was thinking of getting a Nikon D80. Do you think that would be a good camera for an unexperienced photographer? What do you suggest?

Thanks!

This project is an individual assignment for college level school work. The man I am going to photograph is a master photograher and I so want to do a good job and show his artistry at work.

Hi, I want to save my photos onto CD. I want to rotate them all so I they are all vertical. Will this spoil the quality if I want reprints later? I though I'd read somewhere that if you rotate a photo it might spoil the printing quality? (I hope this makes sense?) Thank you in advance :o)

It's an art image with a human in a ring, probably representing world, with stretched arms and legs in the middle and few light images as replicates around

I'm taking a photography class right now. I took a roll at the beach with 11-14 F-stop and 1000-2000 shutter speed on all the pictures. Those turned out good for the most part but since then hardly any pictures are turning out. My negatives are too light or too dark and they are so extreme( to one side of the other) that I'm not finding any way to print good shots ( even with filters and such).

In anycase, can someone please give me examples... 14 at the beach, ? during the day.... or just difference examples of Which F-Spot to use when...

Please help!

I might buy the lights mentioned in this ad:
http://www.usedvictoria.com/classified-ad/3733158

There is a pic of them here:
http://www.geocities.com/fastlane_77/lamp.htm

As it says in the description, "2 lights, also come with a separate clamp, not shown, so that you can clamp the lamp on whatever and not use the stand."


My question is this:
How much is it worth? The quote says $100 or best offer, and I wonder if $100 is worth it for that product.

Does anyone know a specific body of artwork by Jackson Pollock which has engaged in American ideas and values?

If so, how?

Also, does any of his work relate to any American philosophies?
Thanks a lot!

I have been trying out a premixed "flesh tint" but I find that it has too much red in it.

I also like to use just plain lemon yellow tinted with white, but that can give off a green glow.

What are your favorites? Which pure colors or mixes?

And which colors do you like to use for shadow. I like lamp black, but was thinking of playing with some raw or burnt umber.

Every time I try to take a picture of my little black kitty it either ends up with her looking like a dark blob or with everything but her looking overexposed.

Is there any way to take a nice picture of a black cat with a digital camera?
