At the 2025 OLCF User Meeting, attendees got an exclusive look inside a piece of history: Oak Ridge National Laboratory's iconic Graphite Reactor.
Built in 1943 during the Manhattan Project, this groundbreaking reactor was the first ever to operate continuously, paving the way for advancements in nuclear science—from powering medical breakthroughs to transforming industries.
While decommissioned today, it stands as a National Historic Landmark, offering a fascinating window into the origins of nuclear innovation.

Charcoal & graphite in sketchbook
My goal is to strengthen my drawing skills by sketching everyday in my brand new sketchbook. This is the first entry.
The skull was sketched from my Anatomy For Artists book and I also studied two figures from masters paintings.
Quote: "Drawing the figure is a thinking man's game. Our perceptions can sometimes be mistaken when we are looking at the model...we have to learn to ignore distractions & begin with what we know must be true." ~Frank Porcy
The title pretty much describes it, basically the movement of ideas and how they travel in my mind sometimes.

Graphite drawing, inspired by illustrator Allen WIlliams. In William's book, The Witches' Kitchen, there are these creatures known as cribs, reanimated bird skeletons with an opal replacing their eye. The crib plays an important role in the story and ever since reading that book I have been in love with the concept of these creatures. William's creepy illustrations got me interested in graphite and taught me about the importance of using a full range of values.
