Heads and faces

A couple of months ago I posted a link to some heads and faces that I had put onto Google photos, just to see how things worked.

I have taken some of those drawings (and some others that I have scanned since then) and have put together a video with some music. Then I uploaded the video to BrightCove, YouTube and Motionbox, just to see how things works.

Here are links to the BrightCove and YouTube videos.

The Motionbox video is shown above. I like it because because it was the fastest upload and quickest to get optimized, and the tagging feature -- which you can use right on the site -- is very cool. I continue to be less than impressed with the quality of the YouTube video. I like the other two much better. Still, the YouTube will probably get the most hits. We'll see in a few days.

Meanwhile, enjoy!

(By the way, the music on the video is licensed by Magnatune.com, a great site for a variety of music from folks you didn't know about. The group playing is Heavy Mellow.)

University of Alabama paintings and drawings

Spend 25 years in a place and you get to know it fairly well. That was my privilege in being at the University of Alabama for a quarter of a century. That time produced lots of sketches, drawings, paintings and the like. Below is an album on PicasaWeb of a sample of what I did:

University of Alabama campus - paintings and drawings

Even though we no longer live in Tuscaloosa, I like to remember it particularly at this time of year when I know that it is full flower. The town, and especially the campus, can be spectacularly beautiful and a joy for the next month or so before the oppressive heat and humidity set in.

Note: None of the paintings and drawings in this album is for sale. They're here simply for your viewing pleasure (I hope). Enjoy.

(This is a bit of an experiment. I am trying out Google photos, and clicking on the face will take you away from this page.)
