Billy Bishop is my war…

Billy Bishop Goes to War is playing at the Citadel. I’m hoping the fact that it’s not Eric Peterson and that it is the Citadel won’t sour it for me, but we’ll see.

Right off the bat they’ve opted for a set design. Not quite true to the spirit of the original, but I guess the season’s ticket holders news something for their big bucks…

Well, all in all, the best show I’ve seem at the Citadel in a long while. But, as Leslie says, it’s a very good script

Just trying out new functionality, like the ability to post videos. Here are some trees for the Kananaskis, proving why rigidity is an undesirable characteristic.

The brushes program for my iPad has a movie export feature so I thought I would try posting the process. This is by no means how I usually sketch, but since I thought I would try and do something deliberately instead of off the cuff I used three layers to get the final result.

If I was he
And in no way me

I would see my way

I can’t claim knowledge
Nor sense, nor foresee

I can only acknowledge
My own demise
My own fell mastery

On occasion of being petulant
