I have a lot I could be saying, the recent past has been so friggin' chaotic it's unbelievable. I got some decent vacation pix over the summer, but God. Can't stand up for fallin' down. And it's gettin' to be a habit. And the endless waiting, for whatever's gonna happen. The one thing I've really been wanting to do, and debating whether or not I should, is introduce all my blog fans to the following:

Yeah, that's right, in the absence of any other online presence I may have, I have my DA page. The artists in the group will recognize it as an online artist's "commune," so to speak, and if you look hard enough, you can probably find anything you want on there, no matter how twisted or juvenile your tastes happen to be. On my page? Three guesses. Well, okay, it's not only cars, but yes, frankly that is a primary focus here. And there's an area which says "print available," although I really don't know for certain how that works, so if you check it out, and figure it out, we're probably both ahead. If it doesn't give you what you want, leave me a message here, or email me, and I'm sure we can make something happen. My original intent here was to have a place where I could sort of "commune" with Shelby, but since she's choosing to behave like a pi*sed-off 15-year-old right now, (which I suppose is not entirely unnatural, under the circumstances,) well, might as well generate a little new interest. What can you expect? Sketch art, digital manipulation, photos, and other manner of stuff I have found particularly worthy from myself and others. Enjoy. And if you like it, tell a friend. Oh, and if you're wondering what "Jadongcha" means, it's just the word for "car." In Korean. go figure, huh?

I wanted to show tis one off, because Martha was actually the creative genius behind it. she told me what she wanted, and I just shot it. Probably about the most attractive angle you can get from a '66 Rambler Marlin.

This was my shot, from the Woodward Dream Cruise. (One of many, as you might have guessed. You'll see more if you check out my other page.) I have a soft spot for Flathead Ford V-8s, and this one was just WAY cool.

This, as I am told, is a Volkswagen Beetle, made of rod iron; no windows, mostly just floorpan, seats and engine. The story is that they're very popular in Mexico for weddings. I'm not sure what the truth is, so I'll go with that. I can see it.


And this one just had my brain going all "Greased Lightnin'," back before John Travolta started getting jowly. Knocked my socks off.
