I'm not an artist by any stretch of the imagination. I had to drop the art class I tried in high school because I was flunking it. No, not getting a B (flunking by my standards). Flunking as in getting less than an F. I ended up being a Spanish tutor instead... Heh, my kids always laugh at my drawings. I tell them I'm a teacher not an artist. I am a better photographer. I need to take some pictures of Ulsan. Most of the pics I have are of my kids and their activities. What you saw is pretty much the bulk of it. I’m not an artist by any stretch of the imagination.

I'd like to see more. Also, you're a great photographer. Your photos of the park on Flickr are wonderful. To Marcy - "To me, the whole design has a feeling of movement within boundaries, freedom and energy within structure, a kind of sweetly ordered wildness." That is really cool!!! Free within boundaries is a great way to express it. To KatM -

Spirals, circles. Even the triangles are usually curved. I've never really thought about why I doodle the way I do. When I finally developed a dulcimer soundhole insert I liked, I could see all sorts of ideas in it that I didn't put there on purpose.
