Well for those who like to know more about me this is it. My real name is Ed van Dalen. I live in the Netherlands, in Rotterdam to be precise. I was born in 1962 in that same city. This site (Renderosity) is a great place to be and I enjoy being here very much. A little explanation for the picture. Someone at the site gave me the idea for this logo when he linked my name with the name of the rockband Van Halen.  There is a resemblance with their logo but I gave it my personal twist with the mouse in the rings to make the connection to computer art.
BIO
As I told in the intro I'm dutch. I work as a service mechanic for 21 years now and since recently as a freelance digital artist. I am not a die hard computer artist because I started only about a year ago with this kind of art. I have been painting pin-ups for a lot of years until I visited a bookmarket where I found a book about 3d digital rendered figures. From then on I was hooked. It took until May this year (2005) before I had the nerve to post my first image. I'm glad I did though cause since then I got to know a lot of wonderful people who gave me the confidence to carry on with my art. This site has made my world so much bigger and I thank everyone who comes and visit it.

Hehe, I really like that you can't help yorself, Ed :) Again you have created such a gorgeous picture. Usually I am not a big fan of naked ladies or figures in only underwear, it reminds me of that I have problems to put clothes on the characters in some poses. But when it comes to your art, the characters are always gorgeous even if they are naked or only wear underwear ;) Maybe I will be shocked if you come up with a picture where the girl has a lot of clothes on :) The whole scene here is so peaceful and dreamy, and you have all reasons to be pleased with the result, my friend! The way you have placed the flowers and the other props is gorgeous! It is so clear that it almost looks like a natural photo. The pose of the girl talking to the bird is excellent. Totally awesome work, Ed, and it definitive gets my vote :) ~Hugs from your friend, Hedda~

Wonderful work and a beautiful image. As for the title, it would seem that you have bird with an attitude sitting on that fence.

Outstanding image Ed! The detail in this scene is incredible and your use of props is amazing! I love the boots on the ground below the character. I have such a hard time getting clothes to fit I should put them all in a pile at the feet of my characters! LOL I love the title and it fits so well! And bit bolder these days. I've had a few that keep attacking my old cats in my back yard recently! Excellent work!
