ScribblerToo

I "stumbled" upon a great online drawing tool called "ScribblerToo".  It's an adaption of the first Scribbler drawing tool and it consists of a really easy interface that lets you draw interesting sketches with the variables in the brush settings.  The reason i particularly like this is whilst experimenting with the brush settings i realised that some of the effects you can get are very natural looking and almost resemble roots or moss.  So i have been using this tool to sketch out some ideas etc and I'll see what comes out.

Gif. Imaging

When using the Flame Painter i created the images of flowers but i found out how to create "gif." animation images and created this image.   I feel this has a reflection on the way that David Nash makes sculptures that are both natural but look unnatural.  It almost looks as though the flowers are being poisoned or taken over.

Stumbling

Stumbleupon is a great tool that provides an internet toolbar that takes your selected preferences and hobbies and provides you with a random "liked" site evertime you click "stumble".  It is a really usefull tool that i find really usefull for my reasearching and development for my project.  I simply use the search bar to type in what i want the search to narrow in on and it gives me interesting sites that i have found really useful so far.  

With Fire, Comes Smoke

I recently came across this drawing programme on the internet called "Flame Painter" and i found that it makes really very interesting marks and has some very good adjustments and settings that can lead to interesting effects.  Being inspired by the wwf campaign posters i used this programme to create images of flowers and trees that looked like they were made from smoke.
