Some large-scale designs, but all within a short bicycle ride of downtown and loaded with fine grain and nice landscapes for people.

travel hiatus

i'll be in copenhagen until the end of the month. depending on how it goes, i may upload a photo or sketch or two in the meantime. regularly scheduled bay area mixed terrain programing will resume in earnest when i return (and it doesn't seem like i'll be missing much more than 2 weeks of rain in the bay, either).
