I doubt there's much you can do about it. It's the talent for outline
drawing. Joan has taken it to immense heights. I feel like I want to say
that you are very close behind, but that's an unfair understatement. When
outline drawing gets this good, it does become hard to tell apart -
especially when your subject matter is similar. Good is good.

>guess I'm a bloody copycat. :)

Don't I wish. I could cut and paste Joan's work, and it would end up crap.
The best I can hope to do is make the period at the end of this sentence
actually look like a period, and even that's chancy.

Alan

My real address is alan @ netcom.ca 
(with a 'p' on 'alan' making it 'alanp',
and no spaces). I'm sick of email spam.
