This picture of Michael Wilton (click on it for a full-sized version) was
created by Brenn Colson of Brenn One Design Studio, with a technique
known as “photo-rendering using pointillism.” Using a 4×0 technical
pen, Brenn recreated a photo of Michael from Volume 15, Issue 2 of
Peavy Monitor Magazine, entirely with dots. Brenn’s a
serious Michael Wilton fan - she owns his Rage for Order
jacket! She created this picture for the Seattle ‘98 gathering; Michael
has a copy signed by Brenn, and Brenn has a copy signed by Michael.
Brenn actually offers copies of her work for sale - a high-quality clear
film positive costs $25; a xerographic black-on-white copy is $10.
Shipping outside the U.S. costs a little bit more. If you’re interested
in a copy of this illustration, or in learning more about the other
illustrations Brenn’s done of musicians and actors,
e-mail
her
for more information.

So of course I spent too much time at the beach with not enough sunscreen.
Just call me lobster boy. But at least Maisha and Tera (who’s 8 months
old today) had a good time.

Editor’s Notes

Hello again, everyone out there in radio land! First off, my apologies
for not saying more in this space last month. As I noted
then, things were a little busy. But
they’re starting to settle down a little bit now - I think we’ve got all
the furniture we need, for example. So I’ll be a little more talkative.
I apologize for the lack of art this issue… perhaps someone would like
to send me some?

Of course, in being so terse last month, and utter silent in December, I
completely failed to do my usual little “end of one year, beginning of
another” rant in here. So, here it is.
