Art all night 2011 My favorites

Gatoropolis by Ian Olson. This 13yo has a lot of nerve posting it as NFS as it was the one painting I was most interested in purchasing this year.





















Arivals by Heidi Tucker was super sweet

Best pizza dough recipe

How do you know when you have made a good search engine? When the number one hit for "pizza dough recipe" is the best one. So after many pizzas I am sure this pizza dough and #1 google hit is the way to go. While this nonsense and #1 Bing hit is not (Adding sugar, too short a raise time are two of its most obvious sins. If being on allrecipes was not enough).

The good one (with some slight modification that I will elaborate on in the future) is pictured here with pesto, red bell peppers, and artichoke hearts.

 So as long as Bing is using Google to determine its search rankings why not add this one to the list.

My favorite pizzas:

pesto sauce, red pepper
and artichoke heart
Sautéed red peppers with tomato
and pepperoni

how to build a cheap frame for a painting

So I start buy buying molding from the hardware store

measure (on the inside of the inner rim) and cut 45deg angles with a Mitre Box
After cutting I tape the inside, and open the outside and put in woodglue. 


Then clamp while the glue dries.
