    Probably Not A Robot

    I made another album…

    This is for all those people who have wondered at some point whether they are actually robots. If you were, would you know? What if your programmer wrote your software so that you wouldn't figure it out?

    As with all my albums, it's free to download so you have no reason not to.

    It's Art, I tell you!

    After many years of meaning to do it and not actually doing it, I decided to open an Etsy store. It's not my first online print store. In fact, one of the key reasons I ever learned HTML, CSS and PHP was to build an online store for my artwork back in... 2002? Seriously? Seventeen years ago...?

    Anyways... I've put in a few prints so far, mostly from the Octoplural series of paintings although my current favourite is the My Day Flowchart.

    I really like how I could tie Etsy together with Printful so the prints are generated on demand rather than me holding a lot of stock which is how we did it back in the olden days...
