Havana Deception
​
Havana Deception is a book written by a friend and former shipmate, William Hellman. A former SEAL, Bill inserts the reader into a global adventure* filled with firefights, intrigue, family secrets, and the Kraken. It’s a world he knows well and which he vividly depicts. I’m not sure who his parents are, but after reading it I have a distinct feeling that Tom Clancy and Emma Peel had a love child. If you are at all interested in military science thrillers then this book is definitely worth a read.
​
* Most of the adventures in the book actually happened to either Bill or a colleague, though the adventure that Bill and I had involving a gentlemen's club in Guam was most likely omitted due to security concerns.

I always start with casual graphite sketches on tracing paper, and once I am satisfied with the direction, I will transfer the sketch to paper, board, whatever seems to suit the subject…or not. I then begin bringing the drawing to life with my beloved pens of choice—PrismaColor Premier, Copic Multi-liner, and/or Pigma Multi-liner. Then comes the water. And the color...a truly elusive and at times frustrating medium that truly has a mind of its own.

You can't always control the look of your environment, but you can control the way you see it.

The Closer Collection by Sherry Mills was created to bring awareness to this choice and to offer that a simple shift in focus can be liberating. The collection offers an abstract look at the undiscovered beauty of our streets and sidewalks from scrawls on the walls to street lane stains. A bold display of color and form to prove that . . . The museum may be right where you are standing.
