Day two: The shell
Continued from Day one: Discovery.
NaNoDrawMo – Day two: The Shell.

Wait. Well placed? What placed this egg here? Whatever [...]
Day one: Discovery
NaNoDrawMo – Day one: Discovery.
Ted Arnold, a farmer from New England, notices what appears to be an egg just outside of his barn. Cautiously he approaches the object wondering where it may have come from.

What I enjoyed most about these videos was the angle, the not-overly-produced presentation, and my ability to watch it over, pause [...]
Finding style
I'm trying to find my own style.
A Thank You card with meaning
A little bit of the thought behind a Thank You card I made for my brother and his family.
So, today is Talk Like A Pirate Day?
I figured I might as well look the part.
