Right Or Left Brain Use

If you see this lady turning in clockwise you are using your right brain.
If you see it the other way, you are using left brain.
Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way.

See if you can make her go one way and then the other by shifting the brain's current. 
BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN 

Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking: 

 Left Brain                         Right Brain

Logical                                 Random
Sequential                           Intuitive 
Rational                              Holistic 
Analytical                            Synthesizing 
Objective                            Subjective 
Looks at parts                    Looks at whole
                                           
Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.

3D Art Of Franz Stake (FS)

Known by Web friends as FS, I have long admired the master work of Franz Stake (FS). This artist takes the ordinary and makes it extraordinary. These portraits show the ethnic beauty of all peoples and all ages. I thank Franz for the permission to present this Art. (Please note, these are not photos but completely created in 3D programs on a computer.)




Franz is an Electronics Engineer who lives in Germany and this art is his hobby.

The Artistic Photography Of Shari Workman

Shari is a wonderful artistic photographer from Minnesota. Much of her work showcases the beautiful countryside where she lives. See more of her work at http://www.shariworkman.com
This video was made with Shari's permission.




Here is what Shari has to say about herself:
I am 40-something, married with children (3 teenagers), and live on 20 acres of beautiful countryside in rural Minnesota (Central).  Born and raised a city girl (In Minneapolis), I truly have grown to love the wide open spaces, wild life and nature.  The world really is a beautiful place.

I have always enjoyed taking pictures; only the last few years I have taken it a bit more seriously, and can now officially call it Photography.  I love animals, flowers and macro photography.  As of late, I have been turning my images more into photo art than anything.  I am in a mode where I want to fine tune every pixel, and yes, getting that fussy can drive me crazy, but, when I reach that point, I generally put the image in a 'In Progress" folder and start on another one.  A week later, I find there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, and tweak it a tad and upload it. 



Most of my images are taken with a Nikon D70. Some were taken with my handy little pocket-sized Sony Cybershot. The lenses I use with the Nikon is: 70-300mm, 18-70mm, and a 90mm Macro. Oh, and I also have a 2X for attaching to the 300mm.

I tend to postwork most of my photo's .. For that, I primarily use Photoshop CS II, PhotoImpact , Painter8, and various freebies such as Neat Image, Virtual Photographer, and others. Anyway, thank you for your interest.

LOST - John Locke - Speed Painting by Nico Di Mattia

Great example of computer graphic art being drawn by Nico Di Mattia. This is a time lapse film that takes 5 minutes to watch. The drawing took 3 hours to create using a pen pad and photoshop on a computer.





I find this film amazing.
