Some (one) of us can't help messing around with something that is pretty good, trying to make it better. That's me, so the JonCallihan site is now in Vers !!!. The content has not changed much, the presentation is totally different. I'd like feed back. Thanks.

Way Cool. Much better! You put a lot of work into that. I am a lazy person, that's why I liked (for example) the autobiographic opening page where it did a slide show without me doing anything but read the comments below each as they showed up.

BTW, the more I got to thinking about doing sculptures I came to the conclusion that the arthritis in my hands, especially the thumbs, would make this art form less fun for me than a brush.

Someday I would like to learn how to build a site like yours - its on my bucket list.

Dave,
All of the work was taking photos of my stuff (over about 55 years or so), remembering what they were and when I took them. Pay GoDaddy about a hundred or so dollars and Voile (I don't know how to get the accent grave on the e) you have a web site. They are so helpful.

My wrists are also very arthritic, as long as I don't go overboard with the modeling part and depend on the cutting part, oil-clay (Plasticene) is very easy to work. As long as you keep the knives sharp, sculpting wood is not hard on the hands/wrists either.

Thanks for the comments.

Time to bump this thread.

I've reworked most of the site, changed one or two pages.

A scooter forum friend sent me a photo of Monument Valley in late 2011, I just finished my interpretation of his photo/ It is in current work.

I like it...soothing, relaxing.

very well done. I don't think I have ever seen a large body of water that still.

Lovely, MsP. It is very peaceful.

This is my wife's first oil painting. It's a sunset from barefoot beach.

My serious compliments, Ms Fitsfshr. I think that this what a sunset should be.
