Alpha Beta Gamma
It looks as if I’ve finally mastered this beta version of the new editor for WordPress. Which brings to mind, why are we using the English alphabet for these mysterious purposes such as versions of applications, brain waves, and variants of covid? As for Greek letters, I’m all too familiar with omicron. So, given the […]

BICYCLES is PEOPLE!
As are chairs: But, back to bicycles, and the title of this. Boomers will remember an old movie titled “Soylent Green “. Long story short, in a dystopian world, people are given something to eat, called Soylent Green. As it turns out, its made of recycled human remains. Thus, the cry “Soylent Green is People!” […]

Yay for me!
Cycles This is so exciting to me. A real vote of confidence, and a real shot in the arm. Of course, since now I am working small, I thought I’d show the small drawing that this is derived from. I’m proud of them both. Just to let you know, I was planning to use this […]

Changing direction
I didn’t work on the MS bicycle ride for a while. I started to add the background, and put in a weeping willow. It made the whole thing look kitschy and awful. I tried to erase it, but it was too firmly drawn, that I couldn’t do it. I got very discouraged. But then, the […]

Back on Course
Started the redo of the MS bike ride, and I’m pleased with it. To get the asphalt right, it took long tedious work. Thank God for the invention of the iPod, otherwise, sitting, making miniscule pencil strokes over and over would have made me start raving….well, raving. For those of you who are artists, just […]
