Sometimes work really will NOT leave you alone. February's been a bad month for thinking about anything but work; and when I do spend time thinking about anything else, I feel a bit guilty: I ought to be thinking about work. Who would have believed I'd ever live to develop a work ethic?
The digital doodling is something else; it's what I do during the dead time between one task and another. You know what I mean: the periods that are too short for getting properly stuck in to a task and too long to do nothing at all. In the interim, I'm learning all sorts of new techniques with Paintshop, and I enjoy publishing my output. Besides, the Flatland Digital Artwork Gallery now gets more hits than any of my other blogs combined.
February 28 produced some work using some new techniques, particularly some pieces in which I was going for a metallic look. There are some wallpapers and digital tiles that are more skillfully wrought than my earlier work, just because I'm so much better now at manipulating the tools.
And on March 1, I posted a picture of a fish that looks sort of like a fish. An abstract fish, of course, but still a fish. It's posted here.
I did manage to post a few new pieces. All had a surprisingly numinous/spirituality oriented (well, depending on how you look at it) theme. It wasn't intentional. For example, there are some angels for lefties and a piece featuring seven enormously fat cats I see as the daughters of the ancient Egyptian goddess Bast. 
This has definitely been a week of stress, strife, and intermittent nausea. I don't know what the hell's wrong with me. I spent several days alternating between lying in bed feeling very ill and struggling to stay caught up at work. Now I feel much better, but naturally I don't have time to do anything for the next couple of weeks except try to do today what I put off yesterday. But I did do a little light blogging, and here it is: 
As far as my general state of health goes, and my ability to focus on anything more arduous than posting artwork---okay, "art" "work"---I have already made, I might as well type "...." because things ain't changed in that respect. I even left work early today, missing at least three appointments, which is something I NEVER do. 
Still under the weather, but I have posted three more images in the Digital Clipart Gallery. To see today's output,
I'm not feeling so good these days---migraine, I guess---and I haven't kept my journaling promise this week so you would notice, but I'm trying at least to find the time to post a few images in the digital art gallery (which gets the most traffic anyway). 
If you think religious conversion is just a matter of having God tap you on the shoulder and say, "You," think again. 
Initially, I couldn't decide where to post the blog that I'm meta-blogging about here. It's superficially about a website, so I thought first about "
As of today, I've added the following new clipart designs. Check 'em out! As always, you can see the entire current category by clicking on the category names, and the individual designs by clicking on the individual names.
