I got out of graphics for awhile due to other interests (mainly my guitar!), but just recently started dabbling in the visual arts again.  I'll probably never devote as much time to artwork as I once did, but I hope to post something in the future.  But, I sure have a LOT of dust & rust to remove before much of anything gets posted.  If you don't use your skills, you will lose them! :)<br /><br />To those of you who have commented, sent me private messages, and asked for assistance, please forgive me for not responding.  It's certainly never been my p ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ Many apologies to my friends for not commenting on your artwork lately.  Work has really picked up here at the office (which is a good thing) and I haven't been able to get to all the wonderful pieces of art you guys/gals are showing off.  I view as many as I can and am so inspired by the creativity that's out there.  Thanks so much for keeping me motivated.<br /><br />I promise to comment/support y'all as much as I can, but know that I'm not trying to avoid any of you....time  is just slipping away ("Slip slidin away, Slip slidin away, You know the nearer your destination, The more you're slip slidin away."
