All of the works on this site are prints of my originals unless otherwise specified. I can do commissioned originals if a clear picture of the subject can be mailed to me.

Today, that motivating concept of visual, city-to-city progress has been reproduced in these Roadtrip Cards and on-line Leagues as a way to improve one's health and fitness.
