"The Artist" in the physical reality...

[gidgit]

Gare brought to our attention that outside of the digital box, as it were, that there are so folks whom have artistic hobbies beyond the digital box, that brighten up ones home, garden, or life its self for many reasons.

Funny story, but the dog has gained weight, and it was getting cramped for the both of us to nap on our couch, lol, so I asked the youngest son to go out to the back work and garden area, to mill some wood we usually have on hand, and craft us up a day bed...

Then this Holiday Season, we get snow.. here on the west coast of BC, it's not often that we get a white Christmas... so I ask the oldest to change up our back garden area to something fun and electric... Here he is kicking my butt in shuffle puck... oh my what fun...



Here is our new cat hutch we built, as we have four feral cats, a polydactyl cat who serves a surrogate father figure... and the old cat tree was, well, getting old and tattered lol.

We have so many examples of practical, yet artsy builds, and yard designs... and then enters the digital world of capture... it is all so simply marvelous.

When we took over our complex, we changed the whole feel of things... When people drive in from work on Fridays, after working hard all week, they are greeted to groomed common areas.

I would have to search through my files a bit to find many more actual life examples of Artistry, as we just recently got this new computer, but heck yes, there are so many things we all do the revolve around creative thinking for demonstration, and or enjoyment... So post away folks... let's see your artistic side of practical life, and all the wonders.

sadly some attachments not accessible in your post....

arranging your workspace is an art... just been turfed out of my old one [by herself] and not yet got the new office finished... but its looking good; ok it's untidy... always is... those speakers need new tails before I can get them in situ.... get the secomd one over to the left of the monitor and snick the valve amp in somewhere underneath....

Thanks for the heads up handrawn... not quite sure why not... yes, most every space is an expression of the people involved. Nice space.

I have lowered the speakers onto iso-155s, they were at stand-up hight on the wooden plinths

You may think that's untidy handrawn but compared to me it's not my work area is a mess particularly my painting area.

Lol, you should see our shop, we are currently doing a reno to our upstairs bathroom... Used to be a very clean and well organized shop, then the kid started the reno... Reno is coming right along, new bulkheads with recessed LED lighting on dimmers along both long walls, new center light and fan, new tile and trim about to go in, with in floor heating, new wiring and gfi plugs c/w usb, new washer and dryer, redone cabinets, and new hand rails for this old fugly..

Shop is not doing so well, lol... on the other hand, our garlic from last year is up and lovely greens, as are some multipliers, and chives. Here was our back garden last season, summer and a ever short winter... Now time to start tomatoes and peppers inside.



Here is our side yard during the summer...



Everyone has their own interpretations regarding space and representation, and that's a very cool thing for the most part
