Gratuitous bird illustration from the March 7th, 2009 BIRD PARTY posting. BIRD PARTY - logo for March 7th post- Field recording of bird migration. Pictured: a common grackle. Another customized portrait: Walter Brennan, for the Feb. 21st posting. Patriotic! I gave him some nice DUNE-style blue eyes. He's a spice addict!

A customized shot of Vinnie P, for my 2/14/09 post (which is a mistake- I don't HAVE a booking for the 14th, yet---It may be put up anyway). Lp cover art for the 2/14/09 post. My only (formerly) sealed Vincent Price record. Lovely. Vinnie P image, customized by me, made for a St.Valentine's Day post. E & B Tracklist, Jan. '09. 'HEY KIDS!' logo, Jan.

F. A. Q. FOR THIS PAGE: This 'blog' page is a repository for higher-quality versions of art that I wish to link to my posts on BOTB, as they only allow art which is 250 pixels wide (about half a postage stamp); and so I'm going to store art here and link it to the ongoing blog over there. Therefore this blog page'll be a bit dull compared to my usual- it's a utility page. My MAIN Blogspot page is http://mindwrecker.blogspot.com/
