Wow, thanks for the resurrection. I can't believe I came up with the line "intellectual sweater kittens" I'm not even sure what that means.

Cool! So what is it? A UFO landing pad? Or is getting the viewer to ask questions the whole point?

I had in mind a fantasy-world religious labyrinth of some sort, but I usually don't have a plan when I draw.

I'm actually least happy with the focal point (poor precision and perspective), and most happy with the background.

That last one, wow. That is super neat. I will have to show you some of my line drawings. Mine are predominantly abstract, but I love the 'bunches of little lines and details' thing. It's very absorbing to produce something packed full of little tiny lines very close together.

It is! i do it while listening to the lamentations/grotesque-sugar-sweet cliches at meetings!!!

I can get a lot done in an hour of sheer fucking boredom.

I have to be doing something with my hands pretty much all the time; the three tall skinny ones are on the backs of bookmarks from study groups at work, drawn over the course of one-hour weekly meetings learning Java. I started at the bottom and worked my way up.
