Awesome! I wish we'd known about that when we were over there this year. :( I think we even had a train transfer in that town too...

Awsome! I like Hokusai.

The one that always impressed me was the Nazcal Lines... I just can't envision doing it with out modern tech.

How would one do this without modern tech? Any ideas alsih2o? My only guess is to take the end work break it down into manageble pieces and replicate those.

Yeah, there are a lot of ways that basically boil down to making a grid on a small copy and then extrapolating that to a larger grid. There was a guy in South America who did some large pieces by walking his fingers across the small piece and then taking steps in the space. He was damned close to perfect with nothing a caveman wouldn't have.

I would give my left nut to do a project like this.

I don't think land in WV would cost you a testicle. Just buy a bunch of land on a hillside and do something on that... of course you need something weather proof.

I noticed that haircut issue in your recent pictures... I retract the god damn hippy comments that I was muttering under my breath whan I saw it.

Haircuts are free so long as you have a knife around the place... or can get one of the 'alsih2o Ladies in Waiting' to hook you up.

I would prefer to look as little like a poorly groomed shih tzu as possible. And I am no longer down with owing anyone. All those offers seem to come with strings.

Or huge bundles of rope that you could tow a ship with.
