    Knife Making

    We’ve been watching Forged In Fire as a family. If you’re not already aware, it’s a great show. 4 blacksmiths show up and make knives in just a couple of hours. Typically with steels or techniques they haven’t used before. Then the judges smash their knives into things in an attempt to either break them…

    I Heart You Bot

    Here’s a cute little robot of a fella showing his affection. Drawn in pencil, then digitized on my iPad using ProCreate.

  • Never Enough

    Never Enough

    The song from The Greatest Showman plays in my head often. Mostly just because it’s a beautiful and moving song. Party because of the emotions exhibited by the singer, and partly because of the moment where it comes in the movie. And while I love the song, it has mostly been a sad song. It…

    Don’t Ghost Me Bro!

    This is part doodle… part CSS animation experiment. What you see, is a still image (a PNG), animated with CSS. The shadow is just CSS too. Cool! As is often the case, this was drawn on my iPad using ProCreate.

  • Easter

    Easter

    Heavy dust hung in the stagnant air. A stench of dying flesh mixed with oils and fragrant perfume permeated the cold stone walls. Pitch black was pierced with slices of light cutting through the suspended dust. Nothing moved. No hope. Only death. Suddenly a sharp sucking breath split the silence! Life! Sitting upright, the body…

    Young Fella

    I was drawing this during church thinking it was pretty random. When I was done though, my daughter said, “hey, that looks like Pastor Brent, if he had a big nose”. It’s not what I was going for, but in hindsight, there’s definitely some resemblance. 🤣

  • Black Friday

    Black Friday

    Does it strike you as strange that Black Friday is the day following our day of thanks? It’s almost like someone doesn’t want us to let our thoughts dwell on how good thing are currently. They would have us turn our minds to all the things we want instead. Black indeed. May this Thanksgiving pale…

    This guy seemed like an excitable fellow that should stand at the bottom of a page looking up at some exciting text perhaps.

  • Farmsteady

    Farmsteady

    I know. It’s not really a word. I’ve combined farmstead and steady to make an amazing new word. farmsteady: like a farm-themed amusement park that you go to so consistently that it adds stability to your life, ie. steadiness That may be overstating things a little. However, I love taking the kids out to the…
