The Michael Lomax Memorial Fund was set up by wife Erica and the Lomax family and the money will be dedicated to community charities in and around New York.

Michael, a former Stockport Grammar pupil, made a call to his wife Erica from the 84th floor of the south tower just before the second hijacked airliner crashed into the building. It was the last the family heard from him.

Coincidence or Not?

Greetings all. A nice welcome back to blog world. I'm posting a few stuff a have written about but never got around to posting them. I begin with the Coincidence or Not series....

I'm working on my website at www.manuelhampton.com trying to figure out what is the best site template to use to display an art based website. I had thought I was going to settle one, tweaking, looking, revising, standing back looking at the screen, then while I'm at that final point of trying to decide if this template is really going to work, the song by U2 "I Still Haven't Found" .. "What I'm looking for" was on. Coincidence or Not? (20060516)

A VW Squareback! Literally, yes they did make these things. I found this website where someone was selling a project Squareback with a photo of a gazillion pieces neatly organized and ready for you to put together. Sink included! (Pen and Ink, 1988)

Believe me, I was trying to get somewhere with this one. If you click on the picture for the higher res, you can see details of the flower itself where I was getting some good fades. I think I opted out continuing with this piece due to the colors being very harsh. In any case, that’s what art is all about.
