About Me:
Interested in the arts, literature and mountain biking. Like to hang out and have a few laughs with friends or friendly strangers. Although I learned to move the pieces in 1995 and sporadically would play over master games, I didn't start playing in earnest until the beginning of 2007. The more I play the game the more it seems to me that it is as much a sport as it is an art or science. Try to play, study or at least do a few puzzles most days.

Hey man I went on deviantart and searched chess - pages upon pages of good art, but I suspect we'd have to ask each artist for permission to reproduce the work? You should check it out though...by Rael 25 days ago
Thank you very much for your note. You are doing great at the chess art thread.by joaoporto 33 days ago
It's got such a strange physics to it.. the captures and collapses of structure are difficult to anticipate. I'm still trying to figure out how to balance between connected lines and "eyes". I'm Rael on www.online-go.com, by the way, maybe you could give me a lesson sometime.by Rael 52 days ago
Hi, Poems are great, too. I am going to check out your work. I like the photos in your photo albums, too. By the way, I am in the US, and I thought the term for a less experienced player is fish. I never knew there is a similar one such as fishcake.by Anaid 52 days ago
Thank you for the chess art thread. If I ever will get some time, I will do some more chess art. By the way, what does Phishcake mean?by Anaid 52 days ago
