A different blog, but also by BeckoningChasm is this oil painting project. My wife does oil painting whenever she can (which is about once a year since we had kids) and I enjoy seeing a piece of work come together. I hope he sees it though, it looks like a real challenge. Actually, I’m a sucker for any sort of blog that shows a work in progress. I love to see someone apply their skill and make something.

Today, Blogger seems to be in a hatin’ mood, based on how much it’s hatin’ on me.
Time to look elsewhere, methinks.
