Photo Realism...in 3D

This artist is, in my opinion, incredible. Called "The Invisible Man," he paints himself to match the background and almost disappears in each photograph.


"I experienced the dark side of society, without social relations, and had a feeling that no one cared about me, I felt myself unnecessary in this world," said Liu Bolin. I think his art expresses that quite well. See more images here.

Finishing what you start



I picked this page because it looked easy! How hard can it be to draw one continuous line all over the page? I learned quickly that wasn't the hard part! Initially, I was creating a smaller pattern and twenty-minutes later I hadn't covered too much ground. I put the book down. Then things began to pile up on top of it and I forgot about it. It was in one of "those" piles that sits out but isn't in the way so you can walk past it while ignoring it eventually never seeing it - selective blindness! The day of reckoning came while cleaning one weekend. Opps! I've prodded others to keep it moving and here it sits. I sat down, decided I needed to finish what I started, and off I went continuing the line until the page was full.


Lessons learned: Finish what you start. Keep your word even in the small things.


The journal will now be traveling out east to visit Jamie and then returns to Wheaton!

We Ain't Afraid of No Germs!

We'll rock the Spock greeting... we'll spread anti-bacterial over every square inch... whatever it takes to keep those nasty germs by whatever name... away!
