Fw: Re: Golden Ratio, anyone?

[stanitarium@earthlink.net]

brings back memories from seminary-oops! ART school where we learned the 
history of the golden mean-it really goes thru most of history and we 
students found its use in the most mundane places-mixtures of 
paint-equations for mixing mediums and of course for great canvases of oil 
and tempera and casein.

>designs w/in.
>and this is a good book to get anyone started on the beauty inherent in
