SAFETY DRINKING STRAW

March 19, 2009 | Author: | Posted in Advertising, Food & Drink

The Safety Drinking Straw appears as a conventional straw commonly used with cold beverages; however, a closer look reveals that the lower end of the straw is provided with an “X”-shaped guard across the open end, thus effectively bisecting the straw diameter into 4 equally sized openings. As such, large particles or items such as lemon seeds, ice chips, and the like would be unable to enter the straw’s end during the suction act of drinking. This allows the invention to effectively act like a filter, without negatively reducing the flow or “draft” pressure of the straw.

Jennybird Alcantara enters a Treacherous Garden at Varnish Fine Art

San Francisco, CA (MMD Newswire) March 18, 2009 — Jennybird Alcantara’s Treacherous Gardens solo exhibit of paintings explores “the garden of the mind” and its vast, beautiful landscape filled with inherent pitfalls. Duality, water themes, dreams and nightmares figure prominently in this series of Alcantara’s detailed fantasies in oil and acrylic on panel.

“I have always been a daydreamer ,” says Jennybird, “and get many of my ideas during that state of semi-consciousness. My inspirations come from a wide variety of sources including fairytales and fables, mythology, the natural world and freaks of nature, melancholy…broken dolls and objects out of place.” With a narrative at its core, Alcantara’s minutely detailed paintings are filled with objects that possess un-borrowed symbolism contained within each piece and within the series. The artist’s love of animals and their instincts is seen and felt in her use of folklore and metaphor. Dual natures addressing the veils between human-animal, internal-external, and life-death embody the characters central to each painting. “I like to explore the complex interconnectedness of opposites as seen through the prism of myth, fable and fantasy. I use the symbolism of duality to explore the connection of life and death, as well as the relationship between the beauty and cruelness of nature, that of the natural world as well as human and animal nature.”-Jennybird Alcantara “Treacherous Gardens draws the viewer deeper into a world both strange and beautiful, guided by the generous hand of one of my favorite artists,” says Jennifer Rogers, co-owner of Varnish Fine Art.

Alcantara has shown extensively in California, and mounted 4 previous solo exhibitions prior to Treacherous Gardens at Varnish Fine Art. Transplanted to California from her birthplace in New York City, Jennybird Alcantara was encouraged early in life towards her thriving career as an artist. She received a degree from the San Francisco Arts Institute in the early ‘90′s, and remains living and working in San Francisco today.
