Kyle,

Your depiction of dramatic scenery is as fantastic as ever.  You need some tourists, maybe a geologist or two.

Thanx Larry C*., thanx Phillip, thanx Ron, thanx Mik, thanx and nice to hear from ya again Michael,

I do enjoy 'doing a backdrop',   especially when it 'just happens' before my eyes. ......I've been kinda lucky this time out-all the 'corrections and fixes' have gone smoothly ...and the 'fix' has actually come out better than I expected.......Michael...if I were painting the thing I might try adding in some people-alas...I'm just not good enough at using pastels to put in any people that small.....although I might try drawing them in pencil and going over it in fine point Sharpie...... Thanx again for all the kind words and suggestions,   ....more to come.....

Thanx Tom;

OK-today (Wednesday) I started work on the far right side of the backdrop and stopped right above the the middle of the rolltop desk; about 25% of the total area of the backdrop; by my calculations .....this is where I stop and let it 'percolate' through my noggin for a bit before moving on with any further 'drawing' on the thing   .....I decided to take some shots at this stage of the process so ya'll can see what the 'skeleton' ...so to say looks like   ....next up will be putting in all the details that tend to 'bring it to life'     .....I hope it looks OK   ...I think I kinda like it as it is   and I think that when the details are added in I'll have something to look at that I'm happy with     .......You know sometimes it just works out to where what I sketch actually will work without too many or sometimes any changes.....       ....I guess that's about it for now.......Thanx again for takin' a look-see......and droppin' yer thoughts on me....... ...see ya.....
