‘Realist painters and their works are some of the most compelling creations to explore.

Spanish painter Eloy Morales (undoubtably one of the great hyperrealistic painters alive) creates large hyperrealistic oil paintings of himself with smears of paint or shaving cream across his face. ‘

“Eloy patiently works through tiny sections at a time, filling in paint and blending as he goes. The painting spreads slowly across the canvas rather than being built up from layers.”

Recipe: Warm Griddled Lamb Salad W/ A Lemon & Mint Marinade And Homemade Croutons

IMG_4901

Like most of my dishes/recipes, I almost always have no idea what im going to make until theyre finished & I make em up as I go along. I started out with a bit of lamb neck chopped up, which I seasoned with crushed black pepper and i tiny bit of all purpose seasoning.  Then comes the marinade : I grabbed a small ramekin and mixed the juice of half a lemon, some chopped up corriander, a crushed clove of garlic, a teaspoon of dried mint & a teaspoon of wholegrain mustard, a bit of olive oil, whisked them altogether with a fork, then mixed them in with the lamb and left it there to marinade for an hour or so. After that, heat up a dry griddle pan & cook the lamb for about 5 minutes either side.IMG_4896

Next are the Croutons. I was at the end of my bloomer of poppy seed bread and what was left was a little ‘crispy’ in a word, but that makes perfect for croutons! I cut two thick slices then cut them into squares, drizzled a little bit of olive oil and salt , then throw em in the oven @ 180 degrees, and keep em in there until the very end. IMG_4897

After that I got some rocket, baby spinach, tomato and cucumber, put in the croutons and then finally the lamb & boom! we are done!

The Ring That Lets You text, Control Your Tv & Apple Products Pay Bills & More By Waving Your Finger

There was once a rumor that Apple would actually use a ring device for input to an Apple television. Neither of those gadgets exist yet, of course, but Ring is a Kickstarter project trying to fund a finger-based wearable that could enable the kind of controls envisioned in that Apple flight of fancy.

The Ring is a hardware device that resembles an ordinary (if slightly chunky) ring, filled with sensors and electronics to give it the ability to control devices and render input. It can enable gesture controls, of the kind you’d get with a Wii remote, for instance, as well as text input by drawing letters in the air, gesture-based authorization for finalizing payments, and transmit alerts from connected devices via a built-in vibration motor and onboard LED.
