It's been a long, hard search for a blogging platform. I made the (fatal) mistake of picking a platform that was later acquired by Twitter, and all of my posts were subsequently deleted. After that debacle, I tried Tumblr since it's visually appealing and easy to use. Ultimately, I was forced to come with the conclusion that it wasn't the right fit for this somewhat text-oriented blog. And so, here I am on Blogger. Needless to say, I still haven't figured out how to make it look anything other than butt-ugly. :(
Molly suggested that a good way to start getting things up to snuff was to remove the existing, amateur-looking header, and design something more fitting to the spirit of the blog.
I decided to sketch a composite brownstone landscape. I'm hoping the ink really is as water-proof as claimed, and I'm going to play around with watercolor washes.
Hopefully, the end result will be a prettier blog-child!
