Greater Northshore Bike Connector Map 1.3 RELEASE
Now incorporating the southern mile-ish of Snohomish County! Yes, we further enGreatered Northshore. Mostly for Interurban North and North Creek but not just.
Also new since 1.2:
* Construction warnings with dates! At least the ones I know about, which means Juanita Way. They're widening the bike lanes but that means there _aren't_ bike lanes sometimes.
* New bike lanes on 73rd Ave NE in Kenmore!
* Bike shop icons in Northshore
* Route updates in Bothell and Lake Forest Park
* Misc small stuff
URLs have not changed. Enjoy:

Duran Duran's "Rio" came out more than 40 years ago, and people have speculated ever since about who inspired the cover artwork, which was created by illustrator Patrick Nagel. Consequence explains that a Nagel fan finally tracked it down to a Vogue Paris 1981 cover featuring model Marcie Hunt. Here's more — including the reaction of Hunt, who discovered at the same time as the rest of us that her photo had been used.
The #SF #LGBT Center tapped me to participate in the Giants' #Pride game base art campaign. I had to come up with an #art piece that combined Pride, #SanFrancisco, the Giants, and the 20th anniversary of the #WinterofLove, when California began to recognize #samesexmarriage. If my idea was selected, I would paint it on a base and it would be displayed at the Pride Game on June 15th! And it got chosen! Just finished #painting the base today, can't wait to see it at the game!

#art #history: please accept this quick scribbled birthday tribute to preeminent poet, essayist & activist, nikki giovanni (born #otd in 1943). as a member of the black arts movement, she became a leading light amongst the black power poets & at least one of her peers proclaimed her the 'poet of the black revolution'. she's also one of the only people i've seen leave james baldwin utterly tongue-tied.

"Painting is but another word for feeling."
English lanscape painter John Constable was born #OTD in 1776.
He dedicated himself to landscape painting. He often painted outdoors, directly observing nature. This practice allowed him to capture the changing effects of light & weather. He developed a distinctive technique characterized by vigorous brushwork, the use of broken color, and a focus on the transient effects of light and atmosphere.

"Colour! What a deep and mysterious language, the language of dreams.... Color which, like music, is a matter of vibrations, reaches what is most general and therefore most indefinable in nature: its inner power."

The tropical cannonball flower, found in Vietnam, is known for its large, colorful blooms with a sweet fragrance. The flowers grow directly from the tree trunk, creating a stunning display. The tree also produces round, heavy fruits resembling cannonballs.
Looks simply beautiful in an oversized print on metal is stunning. The detail is perfection.

Some dudes go fishing as an excuse to quietly enjoy solitude in nature. I paint plein air watercolors to sit and look at a dandelion for an hour.
A majestic great egret in mid-flight. Its wide, white wings are beautifully spread against a backdrop of lush greenery. The egret's long neck and pointed yellow beak extend gracefully forward. Sunlight filters through the wings, creating a gentle glow that highlights its elegance, evoking a sense of freedom and tranquility.
