Off to NY in a couple of days to go visit meltho8 and find some good holes in the walls. Hope to visit the NHM and explore its depths and find some tasty NY food. So for now I'll leave you with some eels in pen and ink. So many complicated patterns. O.o Ack, my hand ( Read more... )

Hmm, this seems like a fun thing to try. I realize it's a subtle sort of chain letter type thing, but it's a fun one. This is from ConnaIf you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, (even if we don't speak often) please post a comment with a COMPLETELY MADE UP AND FICTIONAL memory of you and me. It can be anything you want - good ( Read more... )

Some watercolor sharks from work here, here , and here .

Political news has me fuming at our idiotic, cowardly Congress. ( Political Rant Up Ahead )

Finally got around to seeing Sweeney Todd this weekend. Overall I liked it, though it did have overtones of Edward Scissorhand with the makeup and Harry Potter with the cast (Timothy Spall looked like he just skittered from the HP set). It had a nice overlay of humor over an otherwise grisly subject. Johnny Depp's voice was decent, but, in parts, ( Read more... )

Went snowboarding for the first time this weekend. I decided to try it out just because. Good thing is that I did learn how to stand up on the smooth, slippery board, but couldn't seem to stay upright for very long. I am finally over the worst of the bruises, but this is one of those times when I'm not taking my tail bone for granted. X[ Two things ( Read more... )

Erm, haven't been able to shake this cold, or whatever this disease is, off yet. Still have a persistent cough that won't go away.

Meanwhile, have some black and white stuff from work. I've done a fair bit of these small spots for the volunteer information cards at work, some definitely come out better than others, but one thing is that black ( Read more... )

This year was the first year I actually went shopping on Black Friday, even though the Church of Stop Shopping was advocating that everyone boycott all stores on the day that pulls large stores "into the black." Mostly, it was my sister's idea ("For the experience!" she said and she's been considering going for a few years), but we dutifully got ( Read more... )

Actually have had quite a few things happen over couple of weeks, just haven't had time to get on the computer. Also, due to lack of sleep, some of this might sound odd ( Read more... )

Am busy working on stuff for this year's Holiday Market at work.
Mostly making token pieces for gifting and selling the prints
at the market.

Meanwhile, I finally gave my scanner back from M and I realized I hadn't put

this image up yet, so here ya go. An older image for Exhibitionist magazine, put out by NAME, the National Association for ( Read more... )

I am an avid recycler; perhaps, some may say a fanatic recycler, obsessive about recycling.
But, other people need not go that far, just enough to throw trash in the proper receptacles and
not let it sit on streets and float down drains. Because today is Blog Action Day and because it just rained recently, and the harbor looks like an algae ( Read more... )
