Misty raptor, step by step
I sat down to do a little doodle, and doodled a raptor. I seem to default to them when I’m tired. I wondered what to do with it, then thought of James Gurney’s latest post on his blog about How … Continue reading

Sunset
I was going through my messy photo folder, and found this pretty sunset that I snapped way back in, like, February. I touched up the colors a bit and here it is.
