Things are tough all over, but the gods have been less than pleased with us, lately. I've decided that it's time to refocus and set up a new ENJOYABLE MODE! That's my new thing... (It started today, when the wife and I set up our YULE LOG / SATURNALIA TREE!!! (Now we have lights and glowingness in our bedroom!!!)

"Radioactive Ghost" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen on paper with digital embellishments and color.] We don't know how this creature met its LIVING END, but I suspect that (either before or after passing) the corpse was irradiated for an extended period of time. Now, a green-glowing creeper stalks the wastelands of Washington and Oregon along the banks of the Columbia River... He's great, if you need a reading lamp at night in your backyard, but you don't want a huge floodlight, which most security systems seem to use. Lure him in with marshmallows, and let him read over your shoulder! ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
P.S. - Another piece in my never-ending SATURNALIA SALES EVENT! (Actually, it ends on Dec. 31st, 2022... I just like being dramatic!) Starts at only 3 TEZOS! (If not claimed by Jan. 1st, it goes up to 13 TEZOS [where it belongs...])

"Marble on a Mission" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen and colored pencil on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] Tom "Cat's Eye" Fuselage was one of the toughest marbles in the bag, but when his wife and children where kidnapped by a gang of slot-cars, he was willing to do ANYTHING to get them back...including the unthinkable! ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Eat Yo Face" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen on reclaimed cardboard chunk with digital embellishment and color.] Henrietta was on several dating platforms, but still had some trouble getting a guy... (For a price, I'm willing to consult, Henrietta! You might need to work on your profile's catch phrase!) ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
P.S. - SATURNALIA SALES EVENT. Have you heard about that thing yet? Stuff starts at 3, but goes UP to 13 tezos in the New Year? Yeah. This is one of them artz!

"Thunder" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Digital drawing created over older digital drawing with a free app on my phone.] The sky gods are displeased. I'm going to need to make supplications! SACRIFICES will need to be performed to (hopefully) tip the cosmic balance back in our direction... ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Scanning...Void" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
This originally started as liner pen on notebook page, but it was photographed, digitally colored in a free app, sent to the MOSH farm for reconditioning, then some glowy effects where added with that same free app over the processed image, and an animated gif was compiled from several individually modified copies of the image (each with different glowy bits) to make this animated piece...which is actually just a portrait of my alien-robot friend, Tony. He thinks I captured his ESSENCE quite well, so I'm happy about that!
