Ammonite Falls

This is one of the coolest spots that I have been so far in Nanaimo, right off the end of Jameson Road this half hour hike to the falls is totally worth checking out. It gets its name from fossilized ammonites that are in the rock surrounding the waterfall. The best part is the ropes you have to use to get down the steep muddy bank down to the falls, pretty awesome. Some day I would like to go back and throw something off it, or at least throw a big log in and watch it go over, or maybe a flaming boat like a viking burial...

Just a dude with some pens, pencils, markers, and a camera. The natural world is my inspiration for all my art, I often borrow concepts and ideas from the creepy crawly inhabitants living in my back yard, on the beach, or in books I read. I also get alot of my ideas by the visuals in my head I get upon contemplating the titles of songs from many of my favorite bands. Most of which are metal bands, needless to say there are some interesting song titles within the genre. As of late I have had a re-awakening of the spider lover within me, reminiscent of my days as a young boy out in the yard with a magnifying glass.
