A lot of thought and dedication. Well done, Mal.
I have suggested to FATG that 'educational' videos by FATG members could be linked through their website. A lot of work goes into making these and it is a pity that often they don't get enough exposure and/or recognition.

Re: You Tube Videos
The video was already a education to those wanting to learn the techniques, but it was also interesting to hear an explaination about the meaning of the graphic shapes. I thought that it was a thoughly professional presentation. Nice work!

Re: You Tube Videos
Many Thanks for your comments. I have had an interest in Arabic/Islamic geometry for some time along with mount decoration and have several more videos planned covering essentially Arabic/Asiam artwork. However, the next video, which should be complete in the next couple of weeks covers a presentation I made for Rinaldin at last year's FAMA on 'Border Proportions'. It addresses the question of optical/geometric centres and how to position artwork in a mount along with the use of the 'Golden Ratio' and finally, addresses the ratio between frame size and mount/image size practiced by among others the British Museum.
