Book Illustration and Motion Picture Previz
But, alas, I know nothing about that art, so I figured through a novel, I could work out all the angles of film composition and pre-vis, as well as characters, settings and the drama of it all.

Dumpster Diving In Appalachia
Throughout the passage of time-man has created trash in one form or another. Before the days of dumpsters, landfills, and recycling centers people accumulated trash and were faced with disposing it. Many items were burned, many more were dumped in an area that became the family dump.
Searching through old dumps is one of our favorite pastimes. The girls and I feel like true treasure… Continue

Dried Apples
Each summer I can applesauce, apple butter, and apple jelly. This year I decided to give drying apples a try.
The easiest way by far is too use a food dehydrator-but I wanted to use the old simple way of drying the apples in the sun.
I lined my pans with parchment paper and covered my slices with cheese cloth-to keep the bugs off. It took several days (I took them in at night)… Continue
