I defy anyone to look at these clever compositions and not smile!
"You can find pictures anywhere. It's simply a matter of noticing things and organizing them. You just have to care about what's around you and have a concern with humanity and the human condition."

Brian, this is slightly off topic, but I popped over to your "The Works" page recently, and I just have to say, "Well done!" From pirates to Tolkien to Disney and more, your range of interests (and book and audio projects) is simply superb!
Why, thank you, kind sir!! :)
