Yes, that one's already in the computer somewhere, it's actually a pastel drawing, but a fairly large one, 40" high or so, I got around 30 hours in it. I was just looking in the computer for it, but don't remember what file I put it in.

I'll put the other one up for sure, soon's I remember how.

If you guys think JimRob will let me put up a drawing with a naked female in it, I could post it. She is riding along in a train.

It's only a little racy, but I'm pretty sure if my sister in law sees it, she'll smack me.

I'm gonna leave your decision as to whether to post the photo up to you and Ramius. I have no clue. It would not offend me. But others might look at it differently - for no apparent reason. I would love to see some of your artwork myself!

You could always just post a link to the picture, rather than the picture itself.

As an aside, when I was a teenager, my Grama had me work on art with a friend of hers who was a local painter. The lady became a great friend and mentor for me and truly helped me through some of that junk that had happened in my childhood. A wonderful woman. But, I would go to her home to work on my art skills... and yet, I think the real strategy was for me to overcome junk. However, I did work on drawing.

This weekend as I was going through photos and stuff to hang on my walls I found a folder of pencil sketches I had done back there as a teenager. Kinda shocking. They were not bad. Kind of thing where I looked at 'em and thought - "NO - I could NOT have done that!" But they were mine. :-)

Oh, reason I never pursued art was that the lady died of colon cancer when I was in high school. After her death I never wanted to pick up anything and draw again. But one very cool thing. When I was 18 months old Grama had her do a portrait of me. Before Grama died she had me bring that portrait home. It hangs in the bedroom here that used to be Grama's room cause it always hung over her bed at her house.
