Hey,

Well, I owe a huge thanks to pdrake who took a few of my old slides (some are really crappy shots) home with him after the last Chop and somehow put them on a CD….just got this disk at Oasis. Now, I wished I would have given him more slides. :)

Anyway, some of the below work is from my earlier years…some from school daze, others not. The one thing all this work has in common (minus just a few) is that it’s all either been sold, gifted, or melted back into the insane boiling pot from which it was conceived. Hope you all don’t mind me posting this stuff? It’s kind of fun for me to show it….not many have seen these pictures before. There are so many great artists whose work I just love, love, love on TC that I hope some of you will follow suit and post some of your early stuff too…I would kill to see it! So, they are listed in no particular order really…
