Dusk

 Hi all,

this time tried something a bit different than usual. Wanted to do something very quick so picked up some pens from Lidl and done some drawings. :)

Tucson, Arizona, USA

 Hi all,

although I never been there, I found the reference picture very stunning. So I decided to make my version of the village in a painting/drawing. I have to say that architecture is daunting for me so I was kind of postponing to finish the picture.

Himi gouache and Arteza watercolour pencils were used on 300GSM Mixed media paper.

EchoStar

Title: EchoStar is always listening

Autor: Melinda Salisbury

Language: English


Story:

Ruby and Deva are looking forward to go on a Ash Tree Foundation Performing Arts Camp. Unfortunately, their marks are bad so there's threat that they won't go. Deva's marks suddenly improve and she excels in the subjects. Ruby is curious, wanting to find out how it happened so Deva tells her. Curious Ruby goes on the forum and wants the AI too. Asking the person, she is provided with a download of an app. What could go wrong, right?


I've been enjoying this short stories about questioning AI and humanity. It does let the person think what future might hold if AI and humans are going to missuse it. It might be a short young adult novel. However, it has couple points to think about too.

A hedgehog

 Hi all, 

this small hedgehog was very fun to make. I followed a free easy pattern in case somebody wants to make it by themselves. Click here. My daughter liked him a lot. Her pal was leaving school so she gave the toy to a friend as a memory.



Hope?

 Once upon a time we used to be very close.

Inseparable, always watching each other's back.


Where did that go?


Nasty and quiet fights left wounds and scars marking us both.

Still I wonder if one day we turn around

- able to heal, forgive and become something new and better

- together.

A ladybug

 Hi all,

so I made like 10 lady bugs (maybe even more) during 14 days as I have had to distract myself from worries.

Little joys/Malé radosti - a new project

 Hi all!

I would like to introduce you our new project which we've been working for over a month now.

Me, Iri and Isumi were discussing all July what to do for strangers as a uplifting gesture as we were inspired by other similar groups. However, because we wanted a bit different rules we made our own group.

Our project, Little joys/Malé radostim is about making small hand made items and spreading them randomly over cities. It can be small crochet thingies, beading, knitting plushies, epoxy keychains etc. We don't put limitations on imagination as long as it is handmade.

We can share what we made and going to spread and also share what was found around the world! :) We have Multilanguage group and we are not limited on places - as long as you know either English or Czech/Slovak.

With this introduction, I would like to invite you to our FB group:  Little joys/Malé radosti
