A few pages from a 2016 booklet promoting Inuit art from Dorset Fine Arts, which operates under the West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative.

"Established in 1959, West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative has enjoyed an international reputation for the exquisite prints, drawings and carvings created by its Inuit artist members. In addition to operation of the Kinngait Studios at the Kenojuak Cultural Centre in Kinngait, the cooperative maintains a Toronto marketing division office, Dorset Fine Arts, which is responsible for interfacing with galleries, museums, cultural professionals, Inuit art enthusiasts and the art market globally. The role of West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative has significantly expanded to include communications, promotion, advocacy, government relations and special projects as related to the Inuit art of Kinngait. Governed by an all-Inuit Board of Directors, the organization also maintains a local retail grocery/hardware store, a restaurant, rental properties and various utility contracts. As a community owned organization, practically all Kinngait adults are shareholders, profits are distributed back to the community in the form of annual dividends."

A naked Taukai lady showed up bragging about how she's a "DaRk ScHoLaR" and can make fleshbeasts. Must suck to be naked and ugly and not even have "being the smartest person in the colony" as your redeeming feature.

We still let her stay. We can probably take her out if it comes down to it.

I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but Kwahu is perfect, and I love him <3

In fact, he's perfect enough that we decided to finally address the Jones boys' whining that they don't have a Moral Guide. Welcome to your new job, Kwahu!

Weird tip for building in survival Minecraft: Don't build a storage room. In my experience, if I make a big house with a few pretty rooms that do nothing, and a big ugly storage room, I spend all my time in the big ugly storage room because that's where everything useful is and I have no practical reason to go into any of the other rooms. Instead, depending on the scale of your build and how many resources you gather, you can place chests and barrels in decorative ways throughout your base and fill them with items appropriate to the room in some way. For example, a smelting/stonecutting room could include your furnaces, a compact stone generator, and maybe an entrance to your strip mine. In this room though, you can include storage for your stone blocks, metals, and furnace fuel. This system makes sorting your items easier, removes a potentially unappealing room from your plans, and gives you reason to visit all of the pretty rooms you spent hours decorating!

Cut Through Any Challenge: Somani Industries' High-Performance Diamond Wire Saws

In the realm of industrial cutting, precision reigns supreme. From the delicate shaping of intricate sculptures to the robust segmentation of massive concrete blocks, achieving clean, efficient cuts is paramount. Enter the diamond wire saw machine, a technological marvel that harnesses the unparalleled cutting power of diamonds to tackle a diverse range of materials with unmatched accuracy. Somani Industries, a leader in cutting-edge machinery, takes this technology to the next level, offering diamond wire saw machines that redefine the boundaries of industrial cutting.

Unveiling the Power of Diamond Wire Sawing Diamond wire saw machines utilize a continuous diamond wire as the cutting element. This wire, meticulously embedded with industrial diamonds, acts like a high-precision saw blade capable of slicing through an astonishing array of materials. The sheer versatility of diamond wire sawing stems from the unique properties of diamonds themselves. Diamonds, the hardest natural material on Earth, possess exceptional abrasive qualities, allowing them to effortlessly cut through even the most challenging materials, including:

Granite and Marble: The diamond wire saw machine excels in the stone industry, enabling precise cutting of natural stone for countertops, monuments, and architectural features.

#MonochromeMonday + #OwlishMonday:

Lukta Qiatsuk (Inuit, 1928-2004)

Owl, 1959

Stonecut on paper

photographed at Brooklyn Museum

“[This work] belongs to the first official catalogued collection released by Kinngait's West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative in 1959, shortly after the introduction of printmaking to the Canadian Arctic two years prior. Many early Kinngait graphic artists adapted their skills as stone carvers to engrave stone matrices used for printmaking. Their work often illustrates the natural world, such as…Lukta Qiatsuk's playful image of an owl taking flight.”

Cutting amethyst

[kamnerezi]

The Kama Sutra pendant is a unique carving of pink opal, framed in metal. Both sides are made as realistic as possible and the matte shapes and texture convey real warm flesh as much as possible. At the same time, the carving is aesthetic. This approach makes it possible to create naturalistic images that cause delight and interest, have their own piquancy, but do not go into vulgarity.

The work of St. Petersburg stonecutter and jeweler Katerina Sakovskaya shows us the eternal theme of the interaction of male and female energy in a frank, slightly erotic, but very subtle and aesthetic way. The pendant resembles a Japanese carving, where the master constantly admires every detail of his work and it turns into a kind of meditation.
