my all time best painting
One Morning in Macedon, a painting of the young Alexander and Hephastion out for a ride, painted as a gift to honor the 20th anniversary of a pair of friends. (I can't classify this one as horse painting, dog painting, or human figure painting, as it has all three.)

- Movies : short video clips viewable in QuickTime (Mac) or QuickTime for Windows. If you do not have QuickTime installed, you can get it from the Apple site at http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/.. If you are on a Windows computer, you may also need the Active X plugin from http://apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab. Each of these links should open in a new window of your browser and play automatically .
Apple stopped supporting Quick Time for Windows some years ago. Don't blame me for this.
You are welcome to download these files : on a Mac, do a Control-click on the link(or click and hold, wait for contextual menu to appear) and choose Save Link to Disk ; on a PC, do a right-click on the link and choose Save Target to Disk. ( Some of these movies have MIDI music included .
You may actually need to download the files and play them in your own movie player application. Some of these don't work well in some newer browsers , newer computers, etc. Some files are MPG files and some are MOV files, which may or may not affect which application can play them. I don't know why and don't know how to fix the problems. I'm going to extract some still frames to put into the articles that originally held the movie clips.
- Grover Playing with Plastic Bottle QuickTime movie (MPG file, about 250 kb, about 10 seconds long) This movie will open in a new window which you can close after viewing.. No music and it's too dark. I should improve this one
- Fox Playing with Plastic Bottle, QuickTime movie (MOV file, about 250 kb, about 10 seconds long.) This movie will open in a new window which you can close after viewing. For download instructions, no music small size but very clear.
- giving pills, opening lower jaw (file is under 250 kb, so even on a slow dial-up it should load in under two minutes) and giving pills, opening upper jaw. ( file is under 250 kb). Pills are large globs of cream cheese.
- Chase Games : one dog chasing another playfully (file about 500 kb) with music (theme from Chariots of Fire). The small dog , Fox, has a toy in her mouth and challenges the Bouvier, Monty, to try to catch her. For just one frame of this , see chase_game_320w224h.jpg
- Bite Games faster download version (250 kb) and Bite Games better version (900 kb, with music, chorus from The Boxer by Paul Simon): two dogs play-fighting. This camera didn't have sound recording, so you don't hear the play-growls.
- Nordic Walking : myself walking with poles, dogs leashed to waist (500 kb) with music (Take Me Home Country Roads chorus). A shorter version (about 250 kb) without music is Nordic
- Fox playing Tug with me with her very favorite Rope toy (less than 250kb)
- Grover playing Tug with me, tugging a stuffed Ring toy. (under 250 kb) with MIDI music
- Velvet playing with squeaky ball. Still playful at age 11.
