For the hillbilly puzzle spelling is not essential. ;O)

Thank you too dear, and hope you weather the storm well and get to watch your game.

I have not done a crossword in years,somewhere in the past probably the Bar brawls,I lost the capacity to spell correctly.
The Hillbilly medicine one had my attention though,I’ll let You know how badly I sucked at it.

Again Thank You for the kind thoughts on the art stuff and You know I appreciate the work You do.

Have a great weekend as well,Its supposed rain
and storm here with Ike and a cold front converging right over the top of us.
I’ll probably miss the football game with the Washington Husky’s so Go Sooners!

Cheers,Rain

I was trying to steer you to John Varley’s page
for some input in finding a literary agent to help you get started when time for publishing the childrens books.

Also a link to a cartoon I did of “W” telling the american public why the wealthiest dont pay income tax.

Perhaps a site moderator will pop in and release my comment for consumption.
Please?
Thank You.

Here is an experiment from several years back where I tried my hand at digital characature but then I ruined it with the quote that inspired it.

The idea about the charicatures of people into personal heroes is good but be prepared for mixed reactions,its the reason why I gave up portrait painting.

Go for the gusto and live Your dreams and ideals.
If You dont try,how will You ever know?
As for Me I know You will do well.

All the best,
Rain.

I too am a book person and have been building an Ebook library in my external hard drive in case I have to leave here and go south.
Mostly from free book libraries and The Gutenberg Project which is in the process of making Ebooks of all the old books, classics and ancient manuscripts and more.

Also learning the computer and different programs by myself. No one anywhere in this rural area to ask questions or advice from.

Having an insatiable curiosity since early childhood started me on a life of voracious reading about everything. I used to be book poor but thanks to the “innernets” I can read most things on line or download them for later if I like them. Have a passion for ancient history, myths and legends since I read about the Greek & Roman gods in 7th grade and thought, “How human their stories sound.”

My curiosity led me to explore many endeavors and necessity forced me to endure a variety of employments to many and varied to go into here. LOL

Working now on illustrating some children’s books I have written.

It amazes Me that thoughtful,intelligent and kind People will euphemistically saw off their own nose just to spite their face when it comes to voting against their own best interests in the context of a belief system.
I guess it is the whole schtick of Suffer in this world and be a king or queen in the next.
I dunno.

I’m pleased that You enjoyed the Novacula spoofs,so many times when I do those I feel as though the stuff is just for me as no one else would probably ever see them.Thank You.

I have never had any formal training in Art
but as a child had a lot of time aside from working the land and fishing and hunting,I was a voracious reader and had unlimited access to all the discarded college material as My mother
and sometimes father worked for the University.

So I taught myself at an early age doing the assignments and later trying to recreate the works of mostly the rennesaince period with biblical paintings being my favorite.

I did a stint as a commercial artist designing
western jewelry and belt buckles for the pro-rodeo circuit.
I started trying to learn to recreate my earlier success when I fell into computer games.

I did several clan skins for the Unreal Tournament
and Halo crowd and caught the attention of an upstart company through word of mouth but to which I never responded.

I had a friend who went to work for one such company and no one has seen or heard from him since,nothing sinister its just that He is just too busy.
We learned this from His ex-wife later.
That industry is a sweat shop,though I would like to learn modeling and try movies someday.

What I like about Your work is the Verve and Pinache,its like They live and breathe and are just begging to scamper off the screen whooping and hollering.
Your application of the fonts are always a wonder to me.

Keep up the good work and always enjoy hearing from you.

Cheers,Rain.

Rain,I just finished watching the clip and it is no wonder old Barbara Bush stated that thinking about her children she wished she had remained a virgin! Flash!!! So does the rest of the world.

Finally got caught up enough to go see your Novak pictures and they are FANTASTIC!!! Have you had formal training to use computer art programs?

Funny thing Rain, years ago one of the early satellites reported that there was no evidence of intelligent life on earth. I do believe the report was correct. ;O)
