Drawings Blog

The drawings blog is like a diary of what is happening at allaboutdrawings.com.

If you're curious why it's called a blog, that is a word derived from the term Web Log. A log is a file that lists all actions that have occurred.

So this page lists any new drawings or content so you can quickly go to the most recent pages.

If you want to be kept up to date via RSS, just right-click on the orange RSS button (look to your right) select copy and then paste the URL into your RSS reader.

Or, click on the My Yahoo, My MSN or Add to Google button if you keep a personalized page there.

Mar 15, 2010, Listening

Oddly enough, I'd always been leery of doing graphic art on a computer. It takes the 'control' out of my hands. I feel distant from the creation aspect.

Mar 15, 2010, Sigh... Just another day in Paradise...
