My pre-school teacher announced to the entire class that she liked my drawings because they told a story. To be honest, I think that had more to do with how talkative I was and less to do with the etchings themselves. I’d stand at her desk, point at my mysteriously enigmatic scribbles, and feed her some gourmet cockamamy bologne sandwiches, with lemonade, about how this diamond family were on their way home from the ever so exciting diamond fair, et…
I had so much fun taking fauxtos for memes with my Cantoff PS6 digital crapera that I searched the net for more photo memes. And guess what I found? I found three that are typically grouped together on participants’ blogs—Theme Thursday, Photo Friday, and Saturday Snapshots. I’m a little late in the game, and I’m not that great a fauxtographer (I need some tips and tricks, people!), but I finally decided to post my take on last week’s assignments: Rather…
I admit it. I kept a sketch diary that chronicled my lame adventures during my high school years.

For instance, look at the third page—that bubble with the cotton swab after Annalisa called me a dweeb? Yes, I know that doesn’t make sense, but I honestly thought it was funny back then; every time I heard the word “dweeb,” I would think of Q-tip cotton swabs,…
I wanted to post something about an old post of mine still getting comments, but I can’t find the fauxtos photos I want to post with it. So, for now it remains a work in progress. In the meantime: I spent about two years hanging out in many of the digital artist communities on the net, so I have a rather bad habit of being nosey about other artist’s techniques. It’s rude, I know it, but I can’t help it;…
All of last week I had bright yellow daffodils blooming by my bathroom sink. I wanted more than anything to take a photograph of them and then post it online, but I never did receive the digital camera I was hoping to get for Christmas. It’s a shame, too. I’ve wanted to start a little photoblog of sorts, most especially after the coming and going of the Photobloggies. So this weekend, I finally caved in and got myself a Cantoff…
