This will be hard to watch for some. Welcome to MY world. I am thankful to be up ang going no matter how limited I am now.
BTW, the infection which caused this was 'Ludwigs Angina'. Began with an infected tooth. After admitting to the local emergency ward late December, I regained consciousness 6 days later and 3 throat surgeries at Yale New Haven Hospital 45 minutes away.
Stay safe out there. Be grateful for your health!
We look forward to working in the future. Trevor is a gem.

Monumental PRIVILEGE! I worked closely with Jeff Dowell on his late father's knives, and Mark at @TheKnifeMag chose my solo set as the cover shot!
That and many others were also included. I am always pleased when MY CLIENT'S work gets publiished. It's not about me. I'm good.
The inside story inside is compelling and my work helps illustrate why.
Thanks to Jeff and Mark for this oppportunity!
