![]() ![]() ![]() This feature often reminds me of the early WordArt of the 90s – changing between colors… but the way Barbara used it? BRILLIANT! Once she explained it, it dawned on me that I’ve seen the brilliant Kelly New do this before, also. If you haven’t heard of or used the gradient feature before, it is probably because most of the uses I’ve seen for it have been less than awesome looking. Me (internally slapping my forehead with my palm): Oh my goodness! No way! I never thought to use it like that! Me: How did you make your text rainbow like THAT!?!?! Pinto’s classroom was different! It was Word Art – which allows you to have a border around the letters – and instead of each letter being a different color, they were all multi-colored!!! So… back to my question: Okay… so I know THAT way… but what I saw in Ms. Note: Hearts added to keep students names private.ĭuring her planning time, I happened to pop by about something unrelated (because I do actually care about things OTHER than how cute stuff looks…) but I admit, I quickly changed the subject to “how did you do make your text RAINBOW like that?!?!?”īefore I share Barbara’s answer, I should mention, that I do know a way to make rainbow text very easily in Google Slides using the Magic Rainbow Unicorns Slides Add-on. I’ll admit it – I’ve jumped on the pastel rainbow bandwagon and there’s no turning back!!!! (Well maybe, when the next adorable trend turns my head… but for now… I’m all about those rainbows!) Rainbows have brought me joy since I was a kid in the 80s and I am more than happy that they are again surfacing as super cool (I was super cool back then, right? – Don’t answer that.) I walked by 3rd grade teacher Barbara Pinto‘s classroom last week more than once and was intrigued not only by the rainbow title text, but also by her blended learning slide (but more on that another time). ![]()

![]() ![]() It's not because its already written you shouldn't write.We define our words, but they don't define us. Writing for all types of audiences is not that easy. For better technical writing the Shoptalk Show Episode with Rachel Andrew is a good listen. On Writing Well by William Zinsser and Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott are good books to a bit more in-depth. There is still a huge list of writing related books on my Goodreads shelf to improve my writing skills but Writing for designers by Scott Kubie is a great starter. Quality Control (checking links, sources etc.).In steps it would look something like this: After writing the post I do some final checks based on this smashing article template and create the assets for social sharing in Figma. These tools are live-savers for me, it would otherwise take me tons of time to edit which I really don't like doing. If the flow of the text still feels off I sometimes let VoiceOver read the article to me. Editing: things like spell checking, punctutation, the flow of the sentences and any other small revisions.Īfter the final draft is finished I run the text trough Grammarly and the Hemmingway Editor.The goals is to put as many thoughts out of my head into notion. Drafting: Just write, it doesn't matter if its fast and bad.Hunting: the goal is to just gather as much resources and research material.Nothing really methodical but I have basically three stages (inspired by this Tim Ferris podcast) hunting, drafting and editing. Usually I'll also add a status and created by date. ![]() People (student in particular) ask me on my opinions, I usually take note of those and if I get that a questions frequently or that topics comes up frequently I write a post about it. I don't usually go 'hunting' for idea's they just accumulate over time. I'll add it to my writing Notion Board with initial thoughts and the resources where I got the idea from. Some must use extensions are:Įvery time a new idea of an article pops up in my head. I'll use cmd + b to toggle the sidebar to navigate files, cmd + shift + p to preview markdown and use ctrl + backtick to open the integrated terminal to commit markdown files. It then changes my color theme to White Night and sets the writing font to Duospace. So I have workspace that puts me in my posts folder of the website. It's easy to change color themes based on the folders you are in. With the introduction of workspaces you can configure settings for specific folders. That is a quick win to make it feel more like a writing app. VS Code has a zen mode to get rid of most of the UI. Since I'm spending most of my time looking at my editor anyways it's seemed like the obvious choize. Can I just use VS Code as my default writing app? Code editors have a bunch of useful features for editing text. After all that testing it struck me, VS Code has lots of these features already built-in. I thoroughly tested 12+ writing apps and explored their features. Commit markdown files to a repository after I'm done writing.Support syntax highlighting for the metadata (in yaml) format on the top of each file.To get a feel of how big sections are (flow of the article) and if all the links are displayed. Markdown Preview to see the text with formatting.Navigation and most UI elements should be out of my away. Distraction free, so no bells and whistles.This is my entire writing workflow, from initial idea to draft to published article. For me it's a way to understand the material I'm personally learning and write things to remember them.

Once again, I was in the right place, at the right time.įor one who has suffered from a lifelong case of being navigationally challenged, I impressed myself with not getting lost amongst the many loops and trails in the 140-acre garden site, luckily only 55-acres are in use for the trails. The synergy between art and nature was amazing. Chihuly's large scale, neon-like abstract sculptures are definitely inspired by the colour and shape of the many different cacti and wild flowers in the gardens. He has one permanent artwork in the garden from his previous exhibition at DBG but I was fortunate to arrive while his second exhibition of 20 new works was on (it closes May 18, 2014). Again, right place right time.ĭale Chihuly is one of the world's best known glass artists. She told me what loops to take and to make sure I went to all of the sculpture icons on the map as they indicated the location of the Chihuly glass sculptures. It was quiet even though the garden opened at 8 am and I was quickly (and nicely) intercepted by a DBG volunteer who graciously offered to advise me on how to best make use of my two hours (I had arranged for a shuttle to pick-up at 11:30). I was invited to join the group for their tour, but chose to say "goodbye" to my new university friends and went off on my merry way. ![]() All went smoothly, so I paid her $12 and pocketed the other $7. I was a bit hesitant so I asked if I could go in with the group and pay her once inside - she agreed. She was willing to sell me the extra ticket for $12. Except, I was intercepted by a ticket scalper of sorts, who turned out to be a mid-50s, university women's group member who had an extra ticket as one member couldn't make it. It all started when I hopped off the Red Lion (Tempe's) shuttle bus at Phoenix's Desert Botanical Garden (DBG) entrance at 9:15 am.ĭollar off coupon in hand, I was expecting to get in for $19 and had my money ready. ![]() ![]() ![]() Purchase DraftSight Professional 2018 for as low as $149 here.

Most of Star Trek seems to be largely avoiding major diplomatic incidents. As it is, I’m just leaving it on my PS5 forever and ever, just in case. There are relatively few big old wars compared to, say, Star Wars which is just decades of continuous civil war, strife and rebellion. Just happened to be in a secondhand store last week, and what three games did I find on disc? So I’d still love to have Resurgence on disc, if only for us fans to be able to preserve the game should Dramatic Labs ever go the same was as Telltale did.

Telltale went bust before I ever got their final two Walking Dead and Guardians of the Galaxy games, so they’ve been out of my reach for over five years. What you say about still having the original discs rings true about another discussion from a few weeks ago, about if this could ever come to physical media. ![]() ![]() ![]() ILIA founder Sasha Plavsic suggests drawing a line with the product along the jawline from the bottom of the face and down the neck. “Ultimately, you want your foundation to give you a congruent effect, so that your face doesn’t look like a different color than the rest of your body,” says Bromhead. “Most people have a slightly different shade ranging from their chest, to the neck, to the face,” says Bromhead, and often the face can be a bit lighter as result of daily washing and exfoliation. While this is true, both Stroh and Bromhead agree that we should really be matching our skin tone to the rest of our body (i.e. ![]() Previously, we’ve been taught that our foundation should match our face as closely as possible, effectively disappearing into the skin. Now, what part of the body should we shade match to? Makeup artist Lucky Bromhead notes that “sheer formulations help to balance out the skin tone, but will not hide any imperfections,” whereas, “a full coverage foundation will be much more opaque and will conceal a lot more, so matching your skin tone is quite crucial,” she adds.Ī good example is Ilia’s Super Serum Skin Tint Foundation, which starts on the light/sheer side, but can be layered for more coverage. “It’s so much easier to start with spot concealing, or using a tinted moisturizer with it and seeing if you need or want more,” says Stroh. If you don’t know where to begin, Stroh suggests starting with something sheer and going from there. Pick a formula, and decide where on your body you want to shade match. “If you don’t see either of these, then you may be a Neutral undertone,” she adds.ģ. However, she cautions not to mistake skin irritations that make the skin pink/red for your undertone. “If you see yellow in your skin, your undertone is Warm, and if you see pink, your undertone is Cool,” says Stroh. You examine your skin in natural light while wearing a white t-shirt, and your undertone will present itself against the contrast of the pure white. Instead, we prefer this hack, straight from makeup artist Sheri Stroh: Well, there are a few “hacks.” You’ve no doubt heard of the dreaded wrist vein trick the one where you look at the veins in your wrist, and if they appear green, you have a warm undertone, and if they appear blue you have a cool undertone.īut, like most tips for identifying your undertone, this doesn’t always work. ![]() How do we figure out what our “undertone” even is? And once we know it, are we supposed to find a foundation that matches our undertone? Or that counteracts it?īeauty experts and graphics make this seem so easy, like this:īut how do I KNOW if I’m a “warm beige” or a “natural tan,” other than just staring at myself in the mirror and guessing? The word “undertone” is a howling nightmare. Use this trick to identify your undertone. We mostly stay away from drugstore foundations for this reason.Ģ. You’re better off spending a little more on something that better matches your skin tone, with a formula that you truly love, and with a way to test the color first. Then the cycle starts again, and we do this over and over until we’ve wasted hundreds of dollars on foundations that just…aren’t great.ĭrugstore foundations purport to save you money, but they don’t. So we buy multiple at a time, hate all of them, and never use them again. But there’s no way to sample them in the drugstore, like at Sephora or a department store.
