  1. I think Abe had a point there. And Jayne, I took your link to tony's and got bogged down by a massive file upload( took me 30 minutes to clear my browser! )

    Too, I'm seeing this work in a couple of different ways...and liking both of them :)

  3. Janye, I'm not sure but when I took your link to tony's "Bench" bloggo, I ended up with a frozen screen. His page usually takes a while to load, anyway. But I never had to delete that many browsing files. Don't know where they came from!! I'm re-setting my spam filtre and trying again and will let you know what's up, from there...

  5. Great picture, did you paint it?

    Einstein said some wonderful things. This one made me chuckle.

    I have had the same problem with Bench. Tony left a kind comment on one of my Stonehenge pictures and my computer crashed when I tried to repay the visit. I put it down to YouTube links. My laptop is old and feeble.

  6. Manya, I will do a post for the cause soon.

    Jasmine, Yes, As you know a large part of my work is graphic novel and illustration work. I love to show paintings with words, if there are none originally ... and I believe limiting some shots to details of work is nice for this venue.
    Sorry, TMI!

  7. Fabulous picture and the quotes are, as always, well-chosen. The Einstein one is my particular favourite. I do love visiting your blog : such a pleasure.

    The quotes resonate as well, especially that from Einstein...Would that things were as simple as they sometimes appear...Have a wonderful weekend!
