Reader's GallerySue Schneider - Reader's Gallery Coordinator, Scrapping Design Team 06/15/2004BRAZIL Get away and discover inspiration and muse in our Gallery as well as the ezine. We will share our designs with you and hope that you will share yours with us. Whether you are a first-time cruiser or a veteran sailor, the Gallery is your ultimate guide to sharing and inspiration. Just like a lighthouse guides ships through the fog, it is our hope that the ideas shared here will entice your senses and trigger the creative power within you. Each month, we will pick a theme. For June, our port is Brazil. We provide a theme to challenge you and our designers and provide you with more adventures for creativity. Please send all gallery submissions to editor@ssreflections.com -- we prefer to stick to the theme of the month, but will consider any artwork! The gallery is changed twice a month. Next month we are going to Greece. Think ruins, goddesses, grapes, muses, gods, myths, Olympics, beaches, Hercules, pillars, yachts, Greek eye, food such as Baklava, etc. Some Facts about Brazil - to get you in the mood - from: www.lonelyplanet.com/destinations/south_america/brazil - Brazil has symbolized the great escape into a primordial, tropical paradise, igniting the Western imagination like no other South American country. From the mad passion of Carnaval to the immensity of the dark Amazon, it is a country of mythic proportions. www.artfrombrazil.com/ - The Portuguese, who colonized this country, brought their rich medieval European art, local Indians had their own unique crafts and so did the Africans slaves. More recently in the XIX and XX centuries, Italian, German and Japanese immigrants added their own culture to this melting pot thus enriching this diverse country.
