So. I'm still alive. I want to start updating this badboy again; I know, I've said that already in 2010, but this time I mean it. I have to change my profile around a bit; I want to respond - gradually - to the individual critiques, letters, and comments.

I've uploaded a new post-apocalyptic image, also. As of late my main project has been restoring a two foot statue of the Blessed Mother that was in my fathers garden. It's going on three weeks that I've commenced working on her; sanded her down, prepared her, painted her, and within the next few days I hope to be completely finished. I may u
