Happy New Year Everyone, I first wished this sort of happy new year in 2014, moving into 2015. Then again in 2020. Each time a little different, each time a little changed. Each time in a time of uncertainty. My first collection (now out of print) is called Hello World because of this comic. This time around, there’s a little bit more color, a little bit more multi-media digital collage combining a painting I did by candlelight with nebula photography.
