Original Artwork by Hylo Bates

Updated 11 August 2005

I'm sorry, but my html skills aren't what they used to be, so I don't know how to arrange my work in thumbnails. Maybe if I have time I'll get out my old html book and figure it out, but for now, my work is divided up into different pages, two to three pictures each. For those of you with slow connections, I hope they load for you without too much trouble. If you have DSL or something like it, it should only take a couple seconds.
