Moved from New Mexico to southern California about three months ago for a new job. It's yet another software job, ugh, making me ever more motivated to become independently wealthy. But I am good at twiddling the bits and slinging the pixels. Some of my digital art pieces, nicely framed, are on the walls in my office. They remind me to crank out more, find a good local framer here. Todd in Socorro is very good at framing, including tricky jobs, but it's kinda far to drive from Escondido. Anyway, except for uploading photos to Panoramio (mostly not artsy ones) I've been ignoring art. Been busy with finding where to get good coffee, an electronics parts store, visiting the beaches and exploring the area.
San Diego and Escondido are way nicer than Florida. Warm, with beaches, but not so humid as Orlando. Not as dry as Socorro. Wonderfully in between.

Warm weather, especially when lacking coolness at night, melts my brain. I don't get far with intellectual projects, science, writing, software work. But hand me a camera, and somehow it's more fun to capture a creative shot, find a new point of view, show interesting objects in their settings. I also love photography on cold days. I had a great time in Boulder during a blizzard - took a zillion
n00b Deviant!
Someone at Spirit of Joy (Orlando) mentioned their daughter had a Deviant page. Someone else mentioned some artist they knew was on Deviant. I'd been to Deviant on occasion the previous couple years. Now, after moving to Socorro I hear once again from someone that some artist they know has a page on Deviant. Okay, okay, I get the idea... me too!
My interest in art goes way back to when I was a kid, but growing up in a non-artist family. My parents were teachers, mostly science. Engineers for uncles. One uncle was an exception: he was a commercial artist for an advertising company in Detroit. He'd spiffy up photos of cars with airbr
