If there’s anything here you really like, feel free to print it out and use a magnet to put it on your refrigerator. Or, maybe you can line the bottom of a bird cage with it. Or turn it over and let a kid draw on the back of it. I’m so glad you could make it to the end of my site, I really hated having gallery pages with grids and slideshows, it felt like folks who visited would just scroll all the way to the bottom. So, next time I see you, I’ll buy you a whiskey.
