Artwork is the timeless sacred geometrical designs of the Flower of Life in purple but also available in many colours and varying designs , just click here to check them out .

The Flower of Life is a name for a geometrical figure composed of seven or more evenly-spaced, overlapping circles. This figure, used as a decorative motif since ancient times, forms a flower-like pattern with the symmetrical structure of a hexagon.

The perfect form, proportion and harmony of the flower of life has been known to philosophers, architects and artist around the world. Pagans consider it to be sacred geometry containing ancient religious value depicting the fundamental forms of space and time.

Figures as prominent as Leonardo da Vinci are said to have ascribed significance to the Flower of Life and three similar symbols, called the "Egg of Life," the "Fruit of Life," the "Seed of Life".

The ‘egg of life’ is said to form the basis for music as the distances between the spheres is identical to the distances between the tones and the half tones in music. It is also identical to the cellular structure of the third embryonic division (The first cell divides into two cells, then to four cells then to eight). Thus this same structure as it is further developed, creates the human body and all of the energy systems.

The Flower of Life around the World
One interesting feature of the Flower of Life is that evidence of its importance can be found in almost every major culture around the world. It can be seen in temples within the Forbidden City of China, in ancient synagogues in Israel, in the Buddhist temples of India and Japan, in the City of Ephesus in Turkey, carved into rock in Assyria, in Italian art from the 13th century, and in Cordoba, in ‘la Mezquita’ in Spain.
The oldest known examples of the Flower of Life are believed to be those present in the Temple of Osiris in Abydos, Egypt. Most archaeologists maintain that they are at least 6,000 years old, though some have argued that it dates to the 2nd century AD. The most peculiar feature of the Flower of Life in Abydos is that it appears that it was not carved into the granite but instead may have been burned into the granite or somehow drawn on it with incredible precision. It is thought to possibly represent the Eye of Ra, a symbol of the authority of the pharaoh.

Biomimicry

This BV2 model from the USC Range got a little make over on the bottom ! 

Read on to learn how this art  could be more important than you think ..

Adding art to your Surfboard is cool, it makes your board feel individual and is an important part in a custom surfboard order process.

Well what about if adding certain colours and shapes could also act as a shark deterrent ?

And they was some solid science behind it ?  

 A recent number of shark encounters of late , which started in West Australia and now the East Coast is seeing large sharks being spotted daily at popular surf breaks especially on the North Coast of NSW.

The Art design is based of Biomimicry which is the science of replicating nature. 

A great example of Biomimicry in nature is the humble pilot fish you often see swimming around the head of large predator sharks like Great Whites, the small fish have black and white stripes and subsequently they are not preyed on by the shark .

The colouring of the fish acts like camouflage , preventing the shark from identifying the fish as prey ..

A guy named Hamish Jolly has been doing some solid research on shark's vision and the way there identify food .
