It has been over a year since my last post here (and much longer on my many other sites). Looking back at some of these last posts, they all say the same thing: “I haven’t posted in a while, here’s my excuse, I plan on doing more … blah blah blah …” The simple truth […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]As I have mentioned a few times already, I have been devoting my time lately to learning 3D modelling and animation skills. I am learning these skills for both the pleasure of learning and the satisfaction inherent in creating. I have never sought expertise in anything. To me learning is an open-ended process.

The boy known as Hawk neared his destination. He barely noticed how hard the climb had been in his excitement. He was almost there! Soon his new dream would be a reality! He once again marveled at the strange set of circumstances that lead to this moment. His luck had changed so much in such […]
