If you're curious about the nature of this site, discover the sordid truth.
P.S. This site looks best in Firefox.

Long ago, in the limbo known as high school, I sat in a classroom with my 3-ring binder at the ready. Information would be spat from instructors' lips, splatter against our naive young faces, and dribble down into a pool of transcribed knowledge.
As if to conjure daemons of organization, warding, and/or interest, I would litter drawings amidst my chaos of words. Sketches would fill the white spaces in my grimoire. Finding ways to express a thought with the most trivial and simple drawings became an amusement all its own. While their purpose was to calm my active mind, these drawings would amuse my friends and mentors alike.
One night a television show came on about autistic children. One of the topics the show delved into involved the drawings of some of these children. Things such as turkey-pineapple beasts, and stick figures abound. Chaos and symmetry throughout. I think there may have also been bodily fluids. Some of these drawings reminded me of my own sketches (especially the ones with bodily fluids). Through this site, I will resurrect some of these sketches for my enjoyment.
A good portion of my original content revolved around stick figures and drawings done in between and around class notes I had taken. While originally from high school, sketches from various college courses were also produced. Some of the ideas have been remastered in photoshop form. Some were conceived, and carried to term entirely within photoshop.
I anticipate a variety of creations will find it's way on this site. Aside from my current batch of notebook sketches and photoshops, I have plans for alternate forms of entertainment. Honestly, though, anything that strikes my fancy will likely find its way on this heap of garbage.
This all depends on my motivation to get things up and running... so feel free to motivate me. Expect nothing, as another reason this web site exists is for me to experiment with different skill sets that I've been itching to try.
In Closing...
Feel free to explore this collection of nonsense, and
