Yeah… because what I needed was another silly art project to get involved with… but I have now decided that Eric Idle is so nice to help me with my book, that I am going to make a silly picture for him and send it to him in Twitter everyday… since he is now following me on Twitter… and keep doing it until the crack squirrels in my head get bored or he begs me to stop…

We interrupt the game we are playing where you all try to come up with the cleverest names for various pieces of art I did that have me in them, so that I can attempt to explain why my being interested in military history is a much less troubling indication of the state of my mental health than is the fact that I have done so many pieces of art with me in them… or something…

Fortunately, I already did a post that explains it all.. that I posted the first time I posted all these pictures of me involving military history… so… here it is… It was called; Don’t worry about it… ———————————————- By now you … Continue reading

I went back in time… part 4…

These are the last of the pictures that Uncle Bert took at the civil war reenactment. I love that one. He used a Photoshop filter to give it the sepia tones of the old photos from that era. I still … Continue reading
