Today will be a moderately short State of the Artist. Yes, I've been getting bits and pieces done on some projects, so progress remains our most important problem. Progress is being made. The next big show will be Necronomicon in Tampa, come October, and there are a couple pieces in particular I should like to be finished by then. One may well be ( Read more... )

It's been another week so it's time for the State Statement, eh. In some ways a lot more of the same, and yet there are other things this time around too.
