Do it Once
5.5 x 7.5 In, Ink on Paper, 2000. From the
Calligraphy series. Sold.
I worked off and on for 15 years as an engineer
and programmer. I enjoyed the work: programming is creative,
interesting, an exercise in problem-solving, and after all the work is
done, the software actually DOES something.
Unfortunately, the realities of business and in
particular, of scheduling, go hand-in-hand with professional
programming. Time after time, I would have to sacrifice either the
quality of my work to meet a deadline, or miss a deadline for the sake
of the work. So the first time I read this quote, I nearly jumped out of
my seat with excitement. I wrote it on a yellow stickie and stuck it to
my computer monitor. |

Life is Uncertain
5.5 x 7.5 In, Ink on Paper, 2000. An Illustration
from the Calligraphy series. $85.
I first saw this quote on a button at a science
fiction convention. I bought it and gave it to a friend with a somewhat
dark world-view. He didn't seem to appreciate it. I liked it anyway.
Purchase. |
