Tom Ray

It took a second for me to realize it was fake.

He seemed fine and it was healing over. But it was huge.

And of course I didn't have one and it won't print without it.

Amy started writing plays as a child but didn't pursue it until later in life. Amy submitted one of the plays they wrote to a call for writer's work. And at first, they passed. Then later, the people wrote back and said they would like to produce Amy's play on 42nd street in New York! Since then Amy has been working more as a Playwright. Links Amy H.

All the fake campy stuff there really appeals to me for some reason?

They weren't even fancy. Just regular bottles of water. 

I used to take them but they caused a lot of problems so I finally stopped doing it.

Should have stuck with the original plan!

I thought this after seeing four dogs in a row barking at each other when they were being walked down the street.

At least I'm pretty sure I've never said it before?

Roasted by a group of kids.

Finally got all my stuff out of there.

Not fun but had to do it. Also the word scaping never looks correct to me?

What it was like to run an online virtual market for the first time? On my art podcast, I spoke with David Van who runs the Madison Makers Market which is a pop-up market that involves creators and artists in different places throughout the year. But when the world shut down in 2020 he tried an online virtual market. I asked him about his experience and how he ran this new virtual market for the first time. You did try to do a virtual market? Yes, I did. Man, it was awkward as hell!  Because it's a brand new format as a concept so we were all just kind of feeling around in the dark.  So I looked at what a couple other people were doing and some of those markets hadn't even gone live yet. So I was just extrapolating what they were talking about.  I came to the conclusion that if you did it for like a single day or only a couple of days that would be presuming a lot about people's schedule and availability or finances.  So I thought that running the event for too short a tim

Episode 7 - of my animated cartoon series Xylus and Dexter in Space! Here is episode 7 of my animated cartoon Xylus and Dexter in Space! Concept In this Episode: Xylus and Dexter had eliminated what they thought was the ghost of Phineas Handala... Or did they? ( Related post:   Xylus and Dexter in Space! "Mirror, Mirror" Episode 6 - Cartoon animation ) Cartoon Art I had been watching a lot of Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons and it inspired me to take a different direction with the backgrounds and character drawings that I had been doing up until now. I started out trying charcoal and sponge-styled backgrounds, like this one of the outside of the castle door. Castle exterior in Photoshop with sponge and charcoal textures But when I was animating the cartoons importing these image files as the backgrounds it made the file sizes huge! So I took the art I had already made in this style and redrew them in the animation software.  Then I vectorized one of the sponge brushes I was
