“l’art pour l’art”
by Frederick

Fond memories of summer 04′. Just got out of the Army, no shirt, no shoes, Labatt Blue in hand. Still had a decent amount of hair on my head. In fact that was the longest my hair’s ever been since 1997. This is my self portrait.

nice work dude
Very Nice!
I posted mine in a “needing a break from ranting” piece. It’s not very good.
I got out 19 years earlier, an early recipient of stop-loss. Then they called it an “extension” to allow me to train a few other people.
I got up, did no PT, ambled off to breakfast, ambled off to train people, slipped into town to drink myself into oblivion nightly. It took me about a year to realize I developed myself a problem in those last few months…
Put my own up over at Lose The Noose (http://losenoose.blogspot.com/) where no one will see it because no one goes there since Lily left.
Looks great. I’ve got to start playing with photo shop.
Getting pretty handy with that Photoshop aren’t you Frederick. I have resisted learning how to use it since it seems so complicated and I am no artist but maybe I will delve into it. Nice but you could have shown the beer to better advantage.
Nice work, Fred. I want photoshop. I need it!
That’s a beautiful self-portrait, Frederick. It really is interesting to use Photoshop to apply the layers of effects to convey what we are feeling. Well done.
très bien!
