 The previous white rhino art has drawn several positive responses; I’m glad to see that people enjoy it. Framed artwork is available at http://kinnally.imagekind.com. The thumbnail is a bit dark, but the finished product looks a lot nicer.

 I wish I had some black rhino art to add; a matched set would be nice. I’ll have to work on that if I can find the time. If you like rhinos, be sure to look at the t-shirts, hats, coffe mugs, etc. at http://www.cafepress.com/rhinokingdom.

I’ve added two different images of a water lily to http://www.pixelatedpalette.com; they are digital mosaics. I’ve also added artwork of some gazinias. I hope you’ll like them.

Take a quick look here: http://www.pixelatedpalette.com/uniqueartgiclees/mosaicart.html

 I’m doing some work on some truly unique art pieces that I hope to have in place in a few weeks (it takes days just to render each one).

 Best regards!

Two more image of the day pictures have been added to the site here. They are satellite images selected daily by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the NASA Earth Observatory.

A unique and original digital image of a white rhino has been added to the site. It’s available for purchase at Imagekind. The description reads:

This unique art image of a white rhino at rest is a digital mosaic where each “tile” or “stone” (tessera) appears to have a 3D look. This original artwork image appears to be a high quality photo of a complex and detailed mosaic. The arrangement of the apparent “stones” is such that they follow the contours of the rhino and lend a physical presence and strength to its appearance. The light on each tile comes from the upper left of the image, similar to the direction from which the sunlight strikes the rhinocerous. The tiles that represent the ground are longer & mainly horizontal to reinforce the flatness of the earth and display some of its small undulations. The background is a mass of multi-colored darks, mainly deep greenish hues, that represent the tangled vegetation that lie beyond this glorious beast.

Infrared images of cloud cover were added today for the U.S. east coast, the Canadian west coast, most of Alaska (also added to visible cloud cover), and Hawaii. The page is located at http://www.pixelatedpalette.com/infraredcloudcover. More to follow!

The satellite feeds for the visible cloud cover are installed.(http://www.pixelatedpalette.com/sailinginfo/visiblecloudcover.html) They show a little bit of the lower Canadian coastline, Newfoundland, the seashores of the continental U.S., the US Great Lakes,  Mexico including Baja and the Gulf of California, the Florida Keys, Bermuda, almost all of the Gulf of Mexico, and Cuba and the northernmost Carribean. Images are supposed to be updated ever 30 minutes, so if you see those clouds rolling in and you’re wondering how much of the sky is covered, take a peek.

I wish you all the best of sailing or wherever else your endeavors may take you! Tell us about your sailboat or your latest boating adventure.
