Ditgital Art: Scissors and red ribbon Note: All my digital art work is executed entirely with my mouse and Photoshop Elements’ brushes. It takes hours of concentration, patience and self control. Especially when the mouse wants to go right and you need it to go left! When this happens , I reluctantly leave my office and go for a stroll in my garden. / That usually takes care of the problem and then, I get back to work :)

So many things happen everyday to make life interesting. It is like a crazy balancing act.
I’m fascinated by Oklahoma’s state bird, the scissor tailed flycatcher. It’s a marvel in flight with its long forked tail; it reminds me of a pinwheel whriling round and round. It’s a true aerial artist, an acrobat extraordinaire.
I think these are sewing scissors? A small gift brought from Toledo, Spain, by a friend …many years ago. For all that they were certainly not expensive, the Toledo Blades have served me well for collage.

The kids here use rock, paper, scissors to solve or sort out everything. Here, in Thailand, RPS is called “Pow ying choop”.
For this image, I used some more experimental photoshoppery…Crossing over to the dark side, for a change.
Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery The Sydney Harbour Scissors New South Wales State Parliament House, Sydney, Australia. 1932 was a troubled year in Sydney, with the social and economic hardship of the worldwide economic depression, and political turmoil with the State Government defying the Commonwealth Government., refusing to make interest payments on overseas debts. Amidst these bleak days, the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge on March 19, 1932 – the constant talk and wonder of Sydney since construction began in 1924, would begin a few shining days exuberance, national pride and celebration. / The celebrations were paid for by public fundraising. Even the scissors for the ribbon-cutting ceremony – made by craftsman Les Denham and Norm Neal at the Sydney jewellers Angus and Coote – were donated by British engineering firm, Dorman and Long, builders of the arch. The ribbon would be cut by Labour Premier Jack Lang, opening the way to a huge display of floats, bands, community groups, citizens and the million onlookers who would pour across this new wonder that day. / Moments before Premier Lang advanced to cut the ribbon, a uniformed horseman dashed from the Governor’s escort and cut the ribbon with his sword. The horseman was Francis De Groot, furniture maker and former Captain of the Light Horse, who was a member of the right-wing paramilitary organisation to Lang’s left-wing policies. De Groot was dragged from his horse and taken to a mental institution but released soon afterwards with a modest fine. The ribbon was quickly re-attached and Premier Lang used the scissors to perform the opening as originally intended. / Within two months of the opening, Premier Lang was dismissed from office by the State Governor, Sir Philip Game, who decided that Lang had been acting illegally in refusing to co-operate with Commonwealth. But despite all the controversy, the Bridge instantly became the most enduring and recognisable symbol of Sydney and of a hope for the better future that was to come. / These same scissors have been used by Premiers of New South Wales to open the Sydney Harbour Tunnel in 1992, the Glebe Island Bridge (later renamed the Anzac Bridge) in 1996. They were also used to open the Cross-City Tunnel in 2005.

My mother taught me to sew. / There was a time when one HAD to know how to sew to survive, but now it’s often perceived as a quaint craft. Hardly any of my friends could sew a button on, let alone create a whole garment. I am forever grateful for what my mother taught me, and understand the importance of keeping this skill alive for future generations.

I want you to know this is not how my son arrived!! This bird / shows great finesse in selecting her food. She is a / great representative of her breed displaying beautiful / color and texture. I would not want to get too close / to her scissor-like beak.
She was swallowed up and trapped in her lion hair and no amount of coaxing would get her to leave her harem of waves.
