The memory of leaves began one day with the thought: What would leaves consider about themselves while floating down to the ground?
After the completion of a small series of hand drawings (15 in total, 10 chosen with only 8 making it to final cut), a number of emails, a few false starts, the odd technical hitch and conceptual malaise, it is finally completed.
The memory of leaves has been designed at 800 x 600 which should fit onto a 15" screen at 1024 x 768px.

I'd like to thank my support network (my family, esp my parents) and my sweet Irish muse Susan Lanigan, without whose guiding light this world would be a much darker place.
