Four mixes; 100 Tracks - Par Avian 100! Just as the Mayans predicted. In 2004, I started an audio trading game with friends. Make a "mix-tape" about an hour long with a theme. The list could only be 50 people long. If you made a mix you got to nominate…

The tide is turning. For the better, i think. Perhaps a bad metaphor... doesn't that thing come in and go out twice a day? Denning loaned me her incredibly precious "Claude Lorrain: The Painter as Draftsman" (rare tome) and i've been poring over it. Actually, it's Lorrain's sketches that pushed…

Inching forward with some style changes. Adding more wash and playing with that. Here's three drawings from a couple of days this week. The last two from today when Denning and I went out for a brisk Autumnal morning and promptly sat in the shade for two hours. Well, that…
