Book Reviews
The book is a simplified version of Feng Shui applications that can
be used quickly and easily. A short introduction covers some basics of Feng
Shui, however background knowledge of Feng Shui concepts would be helpful
for beginners. There are more than 400 tips for improving your life right away.
This useful quick reference book contains information for what goes where more
clear than some large books on the subject. There is no "water" in this pocket
book, only useful info. Also it's not a complete Feng Shui dictionary, but it
will save your time and give some good ideas for projects in your home, and for
improving many aspects of your life. Large font makes it easier to read.
It's a nice handy gift for a person taking a great interest in Feng Shui.
We (me and my husband) used some tips from this book in our home and found immediate
improvements of our relationship. After reading this book I have done some changes in my art studio and started using Feng Shui principles in my art works.

The New Acrylics.
Complete guide to the new generation of acrylic paints.
by Rheni Tauchid.
|
I was looking through many art books about working with acrylics.
This one is my favourite among many others that I've found.
The book offers information about big variety of materials and tools for
colours mixing and medium applications. There are many step-by-step
demonstrations of acrylic painting techniques wonderfully displayed on good
quality colour photographs. Even beginner can accomplish an interesting
project using this guide. If you are not an artist, you may enjoy new ways
of manipulating acrylic paint and making unique decorative objects for your
home.
Author Rheni Tauchid is an artist, and she also participates in development
of acrylic paints and mediums. She starts from describing components of acrylic paint and detailed characteristic of every pigment and medium, followed by basic applications and alternative approaches.
That makes her book especially valuable for artists. Acrylics change their
appearance as they dry. If you know how pigments and medium co interact you
have more creative freedom. You will know what to expect from your mixture
when it will be dry.
As a professional artist myself, I can highly recommend this very inspiring
book for all creative people.
It is great for beginners, and even experts in acrylic can find some useful
information and fresh ideas. It 's amazing how many things can be made with
acrylic, including painting, soft sculpture, stained glass panel, transfer,
silk-screen printing, mosaic and many more. Try it and have a real fun!

Software Reviews
We bought this software on 11th of September 2007.
The program have focused us on realization of our dreams.
I like possibility to use my own photo of a dream, my voice and use
different formats of decoration of the dream. But if you are too busy,
you could choose a standard ones from a templates or just a ready template.
You could choose time and frequency of manifestation of dreams. Some of our
dreams came through; others (long term) still are in process. We will update
the review when we will have more news about it. We are using it every day.
The great tool focuses you on realization of the dreams and make dreams come
true!

This DVD enhanced our lives. We put some simple but effective improvements to our home. After watching this DVD we donated a lot of our clothes that we did not use to local charity and gave some books to public library and friends. We filled great by doing it and we are enjoying our house now even more without clutter.
