Apr 26, 2022Sketches to keep.Yesterday I was messing around with an app I keep on my site. It’s rather simplistic, but there is something about it that takes me in different textural directions. The app is here: https://endpop.com/draw.html (try it). I came across it around 2012 or perhaps earlier. That’s not important. It was…Drawing2 min readDrawing2 min read
Mar 8, 2022The Abox Social Media Dilemma: Part 1As my journey of life and creativity draws closer to its eventual ending, which is not a statement I’m setting down to be morbid, mind you.

Nov 6, 2021Why I may use Medium as my real blog from now on. Maybe.I’m going to try this as an experiment. In a bid to organize my mind, I am going to stop posting blogs on the Anything Box site, as it really does not fully represent everything I need to express on a more daily basis.

Oct 18, 2019Death, Life, and Creativity.Lately, and I can be honest in saying this, I am feeling a bit ‘overwhelmed’ but it is not because of lack of time or that my plate is full, or anything of the sort. It’s guilt type syndrome about death vs opportunities. I think that this ‘effect’ comes with…Life3 min readLife3 min read
Sep 22, 2019The Why of Flexseal as a Rubber Monoprint and MediumI have a great love for all mediums, and my problem has always been how they play together. If I ever had to choose just two mediums to work with for the rest of my life it would be Acrylics and Flexseal. Both are hyper-versatile. …Creativity2 min readCreativity2 min read
