3. I wish I could offer something more constructive

But sometimes the ending ought to be 'too soon'.

I've never been very good at writing, but I do like drawing. When I got to take a drawing class back in my undergrad days, the teacher showed us that there are many times that we have to stop and not add anything more to a work. She was right. There were many points in that class and since then as I doodle and draw for fun, that adding that 'little bit more' ends up screwing the picture up. I still have that little urge to change things when I see some of the stuff I did in that class.

That's all I got. I'm just an old (ok, not that old, but I feel like it), broken down Hydrogeologist.


Sorry...I couldn't help it, I had too share:

These are two drawings that I still feel a desire to fiddle with decades after I drew them.
