For me, Art is impossible to describe. To say that using poser to create images is not art, is like saying that using a camera, or an electrical musical instrument is not art. What matters is what is done with the tools available to you. Perhaps you make pretty images that come close to photographic quality. Whether those images are art depends on what those images convey, and how effective they are at conveying their message, regardless of how you strung those particular pixels together. I spend little time in the galleries. Mostly, because there are too many pictures, and the web doesn't always behave very responsively; so I get bored and move on to something else. But when I do browse the galleries, I always encounter at least one image that makes me pause. Those pictures are more than a bunch of colorful lights. They convey something personal to me. That is what art is about, regardless of the tools used to create it. eric
