Doesn’t all good humor have shades of truth…and I especially enjoy unique perspectives that
cause me to laugh and think simultaneously.   ;^)  When I got up this morning I had no idea that
I’d be chuckling to myself about cowlicks all day.  See what you’ve done!

I haven’t ventured into computer software imagery just yet, but look forward to using it and creating my own graphics library, experimenting with different techniques, etc.  Still, my heart is with hand drawing and the immediacy of pencil or ink to paper and the look/feel of that process.  I’m guessing that one uses a di…[Read more]

Did you photoshop the field of daisies into a photo of the model or is that part 3D too?
Love models and wish it was practical to do them more often.  I prefer it even to virtually moving through
spaces on computer.

There ought to be awards on this forum for most unique and humorous replies.

A very uncoventional route…
I got a crash course in local plants by working one short season at a nursery that specialized in native plants.  Also joined the local Master Gardener program in order to begin making friends/contacts and getting hands on with plants.
No money in either, of course, but I learned a lot fast and had fun.

It’s not functional in the rational sense, but enhances the space and experience – perhaps emotionally or is visually interesting, responds to it’s environment, or the elements in some way (sound sc…[Read more]

Nature will have the last word in that argument – while we theorize and argue semantics…as we circle the drain!  haha.
