SketchBook Pro 2011
This is a great program. I think there are some known issues with it. I found that while running it in Windows7 64bit the "add image" "save" dialogue boxes were invisible so nothing could be saved or imported. After countless downloads and uninstalls, driver swaps, and rollbacks, I have determined that I needed to run the program as Administrator. Oh well, at least I can move on to my next challenge.

Painting Stripes on a Zebra
This past Christmas, I was asked to do a follow up piece for my nephews' art collection. "Zebra" - (immediately below) - which currently hangs over their mantle, now has a companion - It was once a white rocking horse that lived next door at the neighbors house and now resides in my nephews living room. I had trouble starting this one but once I did the stripes seemed to know exactly where to go.
In regards to the question, is a Zebra black with white stripes or white with black stripes?" I can conclusively say that this particular Zebra is white with black stripes, however, the Zebra in the painting is an entirely different story.

Happy 2011!
2010 was one for the record books. This will be the first post after months of not maintaining my blog. It seems many people have linked to this page through my website. I had every intention of keeping this going before but I got a little side tracked. Nevertheless, I hope to share with all that visit a little glimps into my world. So, here is to a great start in 2011 and lets hope we can make it into 2012.
If you have not seen it yet and you live in the Richmond area. I highly suggest visiting Louis Ginter Botanical Gardens. Click on the link for more information http://www.lewisginter.org/events/event_detail.php?event_id=75

| Don't know anything about this sculpture besides the fact that it is very interesting. Located in the immediate area outside the main entrance buildings on the garden side. |

| The light sculpture in this photo is of a peacock. I like the quality of this photo especially since I took it with my Android phone, however it is hard to depict what the light formation truly is. |
