DD50 – Wright Bicycle

Digital Doodles
DD50

While I am in the mood of “rule breaker” I thought I would give you another Wright brother’s “Line Art” RJ’s version. I think most people who even care just a little about history know that the Wright brothers had a bicycle shop before they got interested in flight. As a matter of fact, they had several businesses before that.

This image was inspired by a photo I took in Dayton.

I haven’t given up on doing a more pure version of line art, but I have to get my first attempts out there before I finally attempt to do that.

Mosaic of Life #95 – Red, Yellow, Green

Mosaic Of Life

I spent the last weekend organizing my iPhoto Library so that it’s easier to find what I want here at RJsCorner. Putting 18,000 photos into about 20 different boxes is no small challenge, but due to my Aspie traits, I am up to it.

During all this work I came to the realization that I have an affinity towards stoplights. The art and structure, especially this one, fascinates me. This picture was taken while I was visiting one of the Wright Brother’s sites in Dayton Ohio. There is so much to see in Dayton, I will have to get back for another visit.

Mosaic of Life #73 – Old Fashioned Containers Tell A Story

Mosaic Of Life

One of my favorite things to look for when I visited local or regional museums were containers. Back in the day before TV commercials, magazines, and such, the primary way to get attention to their products was by creative packaging.

This picture was taken in the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park. I will give you more details about the park in a future mosaic. For this mosaic, I just what to focus on the containers I found there. Each one tells a story of it’s own.
