during the nuremberg trials, the axis leaders were specifically charged with crimes that the allied powers did not commit. prior to world war two, the official policy of targeting civilians by massive ariel bombardment was perceived as illegal and barbaric. these photos, taken by my grandfather, as he served as an aerial navigator for the allies serves to demonstrate the level of the savagery committed by both sides. the planes were sometimes miles up, and, lacking precision guidance systems were almost entirely unable to predict where their bombs would fall. i am a pacifist. i abhor the murder of any living thing. i posted these photos because they are a powerful and chilling reminder of the casual stance that our government (i am from the united states) takes when it comes to taking innocent life. the people not pictured in the photos who were on the receiving end of these weapons were mothers, fathers, children. we are all human beings. we are all sacred. peace.
really trying to develop a very Carl Liu-esque style (Carl is probably my favorite product design illustrator)
rough light pencil traced loosely with ink and then erased, scanned and rendered in photoshop. this one took about an hour collectively, but i'd like to get really fast at it. like maybe a page full of these in an hour. (unlikely)
When I was a kid I tried to learn guitar. I still play but I know I could be much better, and I barely know how to play. I do it kinda half ass. I really want to learn more, and even considered taking lessons recently, but like everything else in my life it seems to be on hold. I kinda wish I had the app I have today when I was a kid. I love playing my guitar on my IPAD, I have so many options, I can use my headphones and it is far cheaper than most amps are. Maybe someday I will put more effort into this, it is a shame I don't, I like playing, but time is always a hinderance.
5inch cherry ripe chocolate mud cake with chocolate buttercream and fondant( thanks Effie). I just wanted to practice the royal icing dots as I have never done them before. I have a wedding cake coming up in Sept and the bride wanted something more than just plain fondant. I already had the flowers they were pink and white but with a little gold luster dust It changed the whole look of them. TFL
I used Practicing Creativity's June release "Barefoot Summer" to make this card.

laying on the picnic table, practicing my foot position for a front piercing kick...five days til the test. Now is the time to worry!
leftover batter and frosting... i made a mini two tiered cake for fun, just for practice and to play around...
it's tiny, 5 inches round on the bottom and 3 inches on top.
Woke up this morning for my once a week workout, but was still just a tad sick, so I didn't go.
Instead, I took Ayu out for some bokeh practice.
I was asked to take some pics in a ballet class. I have already spent 2 days there, taking classical ballet and modern, and finaly point.
Its great. First being able to just be there officialy and go anywhere (well almost....) and take the pics, is great. But then there is the movement and the faces and all.
I think it will be a set all by itself. And I will go there again.
Its a wonderful eperience.
Israel, Shoham, winter 2006.
My girl and her dad have been spending a lot of time together practicing. Practicing soccer, practicing kickball and practicing talking about life in general. They don't always get along these two. I think it might have to do with her hormones and his lack of understanding, but they are working on it. I have been watching them lately as they have been practicing and they are learning to know each other better. They are developing a bond and I love watching the two of them grow closer together. I guess it's like everything else. Relationships take practice and hard work, and that's exactly what they've been doing. After all, practice makes perfect!
More of their practice on the blog.http://www.savoringthesimple.com/2011/06/kickball.html
It's no small surgery, so I went through everything one more time today, step by step. Cut my shoulder open, rip out the scar tissue, tape stuff together, add filler, then caulk everything back up. Practice makes perfect and I can't afford to make stupid mistakes. I'll see everyone on the other side of the drug fantasies!
