I realize that I suck at drawing, but I did draw this based on a photo, not tracing a photo. I don’t feel comfortable at all using ArtRage yet. What I did notice today is the importance of some kind of framework around which to draw. I learned that it’s best to draw a face […]
After I finished Cal Newport’s book, Digital Minimalism, this morning, I sat down to draw a duck that I photographed on Sunday. I could draw it on paper, but I was using ArtRage. Honestly, I’ve enjoyed the fact that, in Photoshop, I can rework a photo into something that looks artistic. The Artrage interface is much […]
If you ask someone what they want, I think a culvert isn’t going to be high on the list for most people. But this culvert provides a hugely important connection between Morrisville and Bristol on the D&L Canal. People don’t know what they’ve been missing! The D&L Canal Towpath starts in Bristol and heads towards […]
I’ve been meaning to share this perspective for sometime. It was an evening view, from a photo I took from my office window. So, I worked with it in Photoshop this morning. Random thoughts… Last night I was thinking about terminology – clients or customers. Do we have to define people as clients or customers? Neither […]
To know my customers, and to align what I do with their needs… I traveled to Boston, Cambridge, Scranton, and Wilkes-Barre this week. I met with over 30 people on Monday and Tuesday.

We looked at the website he set up for his naturopathy and acupuncture practice: The funny thing is, we met on Isla San Cristobal in the Galapagos and shared an […]
CISV’s Philly Chapter moved from paper applications sent in the mail to google forms accessed from the website, philly.cisvusa.org.
I created a video to explain the system and answer questions people might have.
My SSL Certificate wouldn’t update. There are so many things I could write about. But things come up, and challenges offer learning opportunities. Anyway, my site broke today, and this is about how I got it working (with gratitude towards people I don’t know). I was getting the following error: While this wasn’t how I […]
This is what bread can look like. It’s not fancy, but it’s everything I want it to be. It’s flour, water, salt and a bit of leftover dough that I had in the fridge from Monday. I can’t really say what kind of flour I used… unbleached probably, or maybe white whole wheat. I didn’t […]
