Buy the WhispernThunder Cookbook!

The new WhispernThunder Cookbook for Healthy Living  is out, and I did the cover illustration.  If you buy the book within the Christmas season, they throw in a print of the cover on insanely expensive watercolor paper.  This is a deal!

iPhoto to the Rescue

I’m doing some test prints with Enhanced Matte and Ultra Premium Glossy Epson photo paper. Running it through Photoshop, doing what Epson tells me to do (yeah, I’m not using profile software, so shoot me). I’m getting horrible color, complete junk.

So I decide to see if it looks better in iPhoto, which is just Apeture Lite. I do a test print and it looks great. Just like the dadburned digital image! Makes sense, since I’m running an image through a Mac Book Pro using an Apple software to print on an Epson 2200. I can still use Photoshop for image manipulation, but if iPhoto does the trick, who am I to complain?

Walking the Dog After Midnite

Toby and I took a walk after midnite last night.

 
If you have the right camera, night shots are a lot of fun. Half of the hand-held shots are thrown away, since you can be perfectly still for every one of them, but it is possible to get a good number of nice photos using absolutely no flash. I hate flash photography as a rule.

Up in the Trees

Had one big day. Took 907 photos today in downtown Miami.
Here’s one of them, kind of not exactly what you’d expect to
see in the downtown of a major city, unless you _look up_.


I must have taken about 300 shots of these birds from
every angle I could as long as it was above eye level.

Doing a virtual maquette

Working on virtual maquette.

If conceptual art does not need to be made, but only described, why can’t I make sculpture in virtual space?  Why would I have to make it?

Driving Down Pass Road, Read by Me Myself

Slocum Healy sat in a sweetgum tree in the back yard of his parents’ rented home on Pine Grove Avenue in Biloxi, Mississippi. He was up above the roofline, watching the neighborhood. Violet Healy, his mother, was inside the house, resting her back. She was giving her spine and neck and wits a breather. This was her afternoon routine since the car wreck. Slocum’s daddy pulled out in front of a Chevy and the rear end of the family’s VW Bug got squashed. The car spun like a pinwheel. Violet’s head collided with the windshield and her brains bounced around in her skull. The children and the dog boing-boinged against the sides of the cab while their mom’s head was cracking glass up front.
