City street full of life and activity... falls to destruction. Maybe that Mayan prediction for 2012 was correct after all!

A Jethro Tull fan from 'way back', I don't recall this album. Interesting textures to try to replicate. (5 years and 2662 days ago)

Was looking for a contemporary soldier, but came across this magnificent image and had to use it. Thank you to all who have fought for freedom. (5 years and 2857 days ago)

I remember the day well, we were all called to Granny and Grampa's house for the delivery. What a fine day it was, too, when the shiny brass-and-pipes-and-gauges and such was first used after the grand spring party. All Granny had to do was crank 'er up a few times, and it started, sputterin' and steamin', making mounds of suds, and it cleaned all the dishes to a sparkling clean. What a fabulous new contraption! Thanks, Granpa, now Granny's the envy of the neighborhood.

Parts is parts as they say, used shiny brass parts from several vintage items, a couple of brushes and basic ps tools.

The victorian house is a personal photo, this is a renovated house in Gainesville, FL where I had the good fortune to work as a graphic artist in the early 80s for an ad agency whose office was moved there. (original photos are in sbs.) (5 years and 3274 days ago)
