Smelling the paint online

I have been glued to the artpad at art.com for the past couple of hours trying to make some wicked paintings. It feels so real that I can literally smell the water colors with each brush stroke. It brings back fond memories of drawing class in school when every 'scenery' of mine would consist of a mountain (two triangles would be adequate) with a radiant sun in the middle, a meandering road emerging from the base of a mountain with a tiny house on the side. I must have drawn a few hundred versions of the same drawing before I grew out of it. Hmm.. Time to check if I have really progressed beyond those childish drawings..

This must be a new form of job searching that I haven't heard of...
Still, very interesting to see the inside of your mind...a very scary place.

P.S. Thank you for calling us and letting us know that you reached TX safe and sound...it's not that we worry about you or anything!

This is an awesome blog... Very creative :D:D... I can't believe you're the same guy with the frazzled hairdo and heineken! That was a shock!...

Thanks for introducing me to art.com

holly and umesh « Your heavy sarcasm is duly noted! I was just so glad to reach SAT that I forgot about everything else.
densel « The 'frazzled hairdo and heineken' was a getup for Halloween a couple of years back. I'm not sure which one I like better.. the sober me with mom-would-be-proud-of-me haircut or the 'frazzled hairdo and heineken' me..

Hi again. I can't help but say again that your blog is awesome. I'm guessing you're really good at art (I already know you're awesome at photography). I really like the page's design. It looks professional and very unique. So I had to link you on my blog :)
