A stunning extraterrestrial scarab.<br /><br />Scary to consider the advent of laser printing. Have you ever tried it? Your quandary reminds me a bit of my own when it became clear, about 10 or 15 years ago, that everything was going digital in illustration. It terrified me, infuriated me, I resisted mightily (mainly because I couldn't imagine being able to work digitally, plus the digital work I was aware of was, frankly, pretty awful). But I hunkered down and tried to learn how to do it, and now I love the freedom and possibilities it opened up for me.<br /><br />Not saying your situation and what you face is similar, just rambling...<br /><br />Your work sure is beautiful, John. Whatever happens, I beg you not to stop making it!<br />Zinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15513890187438346049noreply@blogger.com
