I don’t know why I haven’t spent more time playing with the ‘liquefy’ effect in Photoshop! It has a twirl option!!! I tried to twirl only the sky and water in that one. But the smudgy tool is fun too. … Continue reading →

Another of those things I see in the world around me that nobody else seems to notice…

I was at work one day, not too long ago, and I looked down at the flagstones, and spotted this Aztec chief in a big, gold, jewel-encrusted crown… or war helmet… or whatever. He is right there, in plain sight. … Continue reading →

How I ended up with this haircut; a story that highlights the creative and unusual ways that I make my own life difficult, with the help of the crack squirrels that live in my head…

In which my pussycat is sort of a dickcat…

In which my cat expresses her viewpoints on modern society… a series of pictures telling a story…

Posted on February 7, 2019 by pouringmyartout
