I love decoration, to decorate myself, my enviroment, and my work. I trained in art/embroidery at Loughborough College of Art and Design in England from 1986 to 1990, graduating with a B.A. (Hons) Degree. Colour and pattern form the basis of my work which involves the manipulation of fabrics and the use of the sewing machine as a tool for drawing, or free machine embroidery. My work is always influenced by what is happening in my life at any one time. Initially ancient English architecture, the patterns and the mysteries together with the hidden legends which are my roots, evolved in a combination of geometric order within an organic structure. The architecture within the landscape. Subsequently, travelling, especially to India, developed my sense of the spiritual and mysterious. I experienced a sense of recognition between the two cultures, in which the significance of symbol, and imagery played a crucial part in the evolvment of my work. Eventually, migration to Australia brought a change in the imagery for a while with the expression of emotion about the migration being paramount.

Extractions: Contact Us Book Review Published on Tuesdays Features: Magazine Literary Review Life Metro Plus ... Book Review Legacy of the Mughals Ebba Koch's Mughal Architecture would be a good book for such training. Koch, an art historian at Vienna University, is an acknowledged expert on Indo-Islamic architecture and particularly of the Mughal period. Throughout the book, the author draws the readers' attention to various details in the buildings and then, where possible, establishes the links so that the transformations can be evaluated with a sense of continuity. Extensive research on the well-known and not-so-well-known buildings of this period and beyond to establish these links, makes the book a valuable one. The Mughals were of Timurid-Mongol stock. Their architecture became a synthesis of the styles and proportions of the Transoxanian (the land between the rivers, Syr Darya and Amu Darya, of Central Asia), Iranian and Persian, with the planning features and ornamental details of Gujarat, Malwa and Rajasthan. The Timurid style was replicated with almost no variations during the reign of Babur in the three mosques that he built. Koch points out two important elements that were introduced for the first time into the sub-continent and which differentiate these buildings from earlier Islamic architecture. The Panipet mosque shows the decorative Timurid pseudo-structural arch-netted plaster relief work to the transition zones of the domes and in the fragmented Chahar (Char) Bagh at Agra, the Timurid-Persian design of a subdivided wall garden by raised walkways can be seen.

Extractions: Botswana, in the heart of Southern Africa, offers some of the most spectacular wildlife experiences in a wide range of environments, from the evocative Kalahari desert and the surreal Makgadikgadi salt pans, to the mopane forests on the banks of the Chobe River and the vast seasonal floodplains of the Okavango Delta. The jewel of Botswana, and one of the best wildlife reserves in southern Africa, is of course the famous Okavango Delta with the Moremi Wildlife Reserve at its heart and most people include this as a 'must' for any trip. But the other parks should not be overlooked such as Chobe in the north, and those in the Kalahari Desert in the south. Bostwana is also home to some of the last remaining communities of San Bushmen who live in the harsh landscape of the Kalahari Desert. Tribes has links with some of the Bushmen communities, allowing us to introduce you to the unique way of life of this indigenous people.
Now@FIU February 2002 Issue -- VP Breslin's Book Focuses On Role Of 'pleasure' I
wine and precious metals to money (often bribes), art and public spectacles wereeffective during different times and in different countries and cultures.
http://www.fiu.edu/orgs/alumni/newsletter/2002/feb/breslinbook.htm

Extractions: "Humankind's history is bound up with pleasure," is the opening sentence in Beyond Pain : the role of pleasure and culture in the making of foreign affairs (2002, Praeger Publishers), the new book by Thomas Breslin, FIU's vice president for Research and associate professor of International Relations. The statement begs the question: Who wouldn't choose pleasure over pain? Human nature notwithstanding — given the proclivity toward both conflict and pleasure — Breslin believes that historians focus more on war and violence even though times of peace and mutual accommodation are more prevalent. "Those periods of tranquility receive very little attention," he commented. "History highlights wars, rather than the periods in between them when diplomats are working to prevent wars." Thomas A. Breslin
