"Birdhouse VIII"
manipulated digital drawing by Mick Mather

As I mentioned yesterday, this is a hit and run post. I have a late meeting and a date for a few cocktails so, before dashing off to accomplish both of those important tasks, allow me to say, "hello, I must be going!"

"Balloon"
digitally manipulated tempera-on-paper painting by Mick Mather

I've been so busy lately that the paintings have been stacking up while attempting to find time to accomplish the manipulations. As it happens, my 5:00pm meeting for today was canceled and I had a bit of unexpected free time to work in the Secret Visual Laboratory. Since no good deed goes unpunished and since nature abhors a vacuum, guess what? That's right! I now have something else to do ... gotta run!
