>>I do have pics somewhere. Of paintings too. I'll see what I can dig up and email them to you. Quality may not be that great as they will be digital photos of prints, or scans, but you'll still get an idea. I don't have a page right now to put stuff on, but maybe in a few months when I have some time.

>If I may - your art is a big thing. This is, imo, something that should be a core issue in your life. It is fundamentally a creative process. It can apply to anything that we do, not just art. If a developer on this forum says they truly love their work I think you will find that they view software development not as work but as a creative process, like art in fact. They are creating something, not writing code. Truly creative activities are big things.

You've got a good point there Jos. I personally get a kick out of designing good, intuitive, ergonomic interfaces and well presented and laid out reports and such. I also enjoy creating my own button icons and splash screens, wallpapers etc. Part of my last project involved the creation and automation of MapInfo maps. I really enjoyed seeing the fruits of my labours there. I suppose one of the things I love about the job is that other people will see and use MY PPRODUCT, and to hear one go "Oh wow!" when they view a particular feature is very satisfying.
I guess uin this way I'm expressing my "art".
