No do overs...:  Skateboard excertpt, 7/22/2016, sketch for skateboard I think we all think about doing things over all the time or maybe if you're lucky every now and then. This image is an under image on a large painting I am working on right now. I didn't want to possibly paint over it before I captured it. So here is a photo of it. It does come at a time in history when America's decisions affect the world...

Please be careful, we are only animals with toys... I realize this photo is from along time ago and I am not doing my do dilagents as to its origin and credits but I thought it fit my concern. Time marches on and if this was then what is now and tomorrow?

Code Warrior, acrylic on clay board. 5"x7" 6/2015 This painting came to me as I started to realize that I wanted to really learn code for the internet. I used to think it was just for a job but now I realize it's just something I want for myself.
