html page with embedded 1.1 MB animated GIF
Most of the individual drawings in this GIF were made in the late '90s. They are a bit spookier than I am interested in for my art at the moment but I find I can handle them as a composite with one/tenth of a second to view each drawing.

Update: The inflated admission price for the movie Coraline included a pair of 3D glasses. I kept them in case I want to go to another 3D movie (even though it won't shave the price--it's just less landfill material to be carrying around). A friend sent me a link to an artist doing landscapes and figures in Microsoft Paint. I hadn't done a Paint drawing in a while so I put the 3D glasses down on my scanner as a still life set up. When this drawing is shrunk to about a third its size it looks photographic. Hand skill is sort of archaic and pointless and doubly so if you work in a medium where everyone assumes that cyber tricks are employed. Nevertheless a doomed quest is preferable to writing about other people's more conservative art at this point, ha ha. So, glasses on scanner.

in reproduction this looks like a tasteful Ellsworth K by way of Rothko theme. In reality it's much cruder: 36 sheets of 9 x 12 artist's sketch paper, each with a unique messy monochrome, taped together into a large quilt
