And so it really, truly, actually begins!

And so it really, truly, actually begins!

So, this is the first post I’m making with my site now live (the prior posts were done ahead of time so there would be stuff for you to immediately look at). Like I’ve already said, I’ll do new posts often, so tune in often and we just may have something. The posts will cover a variety of subjects, from my work to the work of others, to general thoughts and stuff. Currently, I have three things I’ve been noodling around writing about when I’m not actually writing for work; my admiration of painter J.M.W. Turner...

And so it really, truly, actually begins!

...My love of the Noir movie The Killers (1946)...

And so it really, truly, actually begins!
And so it really, truly, actually begins!

...And my fascination with Diableries, the morbid 3D tableaux of the late 1800s.

And so it really, truly, actually begins!

Oh, and there are the many projects of mine that never made it to publication, with cool unseen art, which will be fun to finally show. So I hope you visit often and a sincere thank you for your interest.
