I work a bit more on my painting and my phototakery skills (without actually reading the manual yet, derp), and I think that this photo is much better than the previous one. I just need to unlock the secrets of focusing and the world shall be mine. Bwahahahaha.

Molecule Day 1
Posted by Laurel Green on November 9th, 2009 at 7:44 pmAssorted Insanities of the Past
Posted by Laurel Green on November 8th, 2009 at 5:11 amI had this project, years ago, where I posted a doodle every day. I only lasted about two weeks and nobody saw any of it.
Anyway, I’ve chosen some of the more insane of the doodles to entertain you.
I have this thing where I find faces on things that shouldn’t have a face absolutely hilarious. Even more-so if those faces are angry.
Monkey in a Jar of Evil, is a character from the margins of my homework in High School.
Hey! You are a carrot! You are not supposed to have a face! Or a gun.
This one’s just cute. I should totally write a children’s book.
Funny story, I drew this one after I had watched an episode of “My Super Sweet 16″. This is how I see those girls.
UFO’s are a growing problem for anthropomorphized flowers.
I drew this one after reading a article about how the Wii was supposed to be dangerous and cause injuries.
Phoning it in

Posted by Laurel Green on November 4th, 2009 at 8:00 amThis is a sort of test polyhedron for a project I’m thinking of doing. The project would be made up of much larger and more complex polyhedrons.
I’ve learned to never, ever use a glue stick to construct a polyhedron ever again. Also, I will probably have to apply a sealant to the structures to strengthen them, unless I make them out of something thicker.
Self-Similarity
Posted by Laurel Green on November 3rd, 2009 at 6:20 amI’ve enjoyed fractals since I learned about the Mandelbrot set, when I was about age eight. Now that I’ve discovered the fractal rendering program, Apophysis, I can make my very own fractals. And, thus, an all-consuming obsession is born.
Do magenta and brown go together? Is the combination against one of those style rules that I’ve been ignoring all my life? Clashing is good. Clashing is interesting.
…Monochrome can be interesting, though, as well.
With all the bizillions of snowflakes that fall and the fact that snowflake formation has to obey certain rules (always with the hexagons), you’d think that you could find two identical ones. Humans growth has to obey certain rules as well, but even identical twins have different fingerprints. We’re all special.
I’ve alway wanted to visit a nebula, but I have this sinking feeling that seeing gas close-up isn’t as interesting as seeing it from faraway.
I’m blue da ba dee da ba die (repeat ad naseum). I ate you Eiffel 65. So much.
One of the best parts about painting is the first time you dip the brush into the water and the colour goes swirling around.
See if you can count all the circles in this picture. It will drive you mad.
The low-res versions of these fractal renderings don’t really do them justice. You can get a .rar of the hi-res versions here: https://rapidshare.com/files/301824477/fractals.rar
Fibonacci’s Revenge
Posted by Laurel Green on November 2nd, 2009 at 8:17 amI was dissatisfied with my previous attempt at a Fibonacci Spiral – it was too busy-, so I’ve made a new, improved version. Marvel at the beautiful geometry the Gold Ratio can create!

NaBloPoMo
Posted by Laurel Green on November 1st, 2009 at 2:51 pmNaBloPoMo stands for “National Blog Posting Month”. It’s basically just an event where you post every day for a month. This year, I’ve decided to participate, because, honestly, I really need to post some more content up on this blog. So, check back every day, this month, for new content!
… Also, I really want to win one of the Sock Zombies.
