[thewayne]

So let's see.

Number of shows I watch on CBS: zero.
Number of shows I watch on WB: zero.
Number of shows I watch on UPN: zero.

Yup, looks like a winner in my book!

Here's the story.

Sorry, I thought you were ribbing me. ;) Wayne knows I play the computer online game "World of Warcraft" and that I make mosaics professionally. My TV watching hours have fallen by the wayside because I'm more inclined to do one of those two things in the evening than I am to sit in front of the TV. Granted, sitting in front of the computer is not much better, but at least it's interactive and not so passive as TV. And I spend time on the mosaics because (a) I love doing the work, and (b) it's how I make a portion of my income.

Is that better?

:-) Yes, thank you. I can see where it looked like I was being smart-alecky. I didn't really think it was tv shows, but figured they were some kind of game or something I didn't know about.

Mosaics, eh? With actual tiles and everything? That is so amazing. I can't imagine being able to put those things together. tres cool.

Cheers!

Yup, tiles and everything. :) I've spent most of my life doing science fiction and fantasy illustrating for role playing games and the collectible card games, but in recent years wanted something more tactile. After playing with a bunch of different things like ceramics and sculpture, I've been doing mosaics pretty steadily for the last year or so. ;)

That's very cool... I just went and looked at your site. That is some great artwork! I never could draw anything decent without a LOT of erasing. And of course fantasy artwork is most excellent! Do you have pics of your mosaics somewhere? I didn't see them on the site...

Um... We are totally jacking Wayne's journal, aren't we? :-D

We are totally going off in his space, aren't we!? LOL

Thank you very much for your kind words. Trust me, I don't know what you do, but I dead-on guarantee you there's something I can't do and wish I could. Art is just something I *can* do, kinda.

I've added you as a friend so you can go look at my posts from 1/5/06 and 12/18/05... both have a lot of current pics of mosaics. The website is *shudder* years out of date and I reallyreallyreally need to do something about that RSN!

Well, if you ever wanted to annoy my mom... I'm better at that than anyone I know, the poor woman. :)

I will definitely go check out your LJ. Thanks for adding me!

Wayne, we now return you to your regularly scheduled LJ. ;)

Damn journaljackers!

I don't mind, I've known Liz for a long time and she does great work. I wish (a) that I had money with which to hire her and (b) that my games were more oriented for her art styles so that she could illo my games, but that's the way it is.

I have several photos of Liz's mosaics, if she gives me the word (and image number) I can put them up somewhere public.

I didn't really think you minded, cuz you're cool like that. :) I wish I could hire her, too. I want my own personal fanstasy avatar pic. I am SOOOO self-centered. :p

I was still trying to find the posts with mosaic pics when I had to leave work yesterday. I'll probably be looking again today.

Cheers!
