I am a developing artist working on improving my abilities to create beautiful digital landscape compositions. Without the help and suggestions of the many fellow artists in this community, it would be a long time before I reach the next level.
BIO
I am a retired procurement professional who has long had an interest in photography and painting; and, lately in computers and photorealistic natural landscapes. I hope to become more proficient and perfect my abilities to produce acceptable work. My experience in art started at a very early age when I would spend many hours sketching and painting. I had instruction at The Art Institute in Chicago, Illinois. I did some freelance work for Flying Models, Model Airplane News and Top Flite Models creating plans and illustrative construction sequences for magazines and kit models. I had spent more than 20 years designing, building and flying radio controlled model airplanes...a very rewarding hobby for me. During the 1970s, I spent 11 years in the hobby of "bonsai"; the Japanese art of miniature trees. In my first 7 tree entry in a contest, all 7 trees were awarded ribbons in various categories. Japanese landscaping became a passion for me where I completed a 3 year project creating a Japanese landscape around my home in Oak Forest, Illinois. I also did this work for several other people in our community. In 1987 I moved to Phoenix, Arizona where I currently make my home. The love of the American southwest and all its beauty is where I wanted to spend the rest of my life. Now that we have computers, digital cameras; and, Terragen; I'll have enough to do for a long, long time.

So I said to myself - "I wonder what ol' Bob is up to lately?" Good things, man - good things. A hint of overlay, striking water reflection & transparency and drop-dead stunning late-afternoon sky! You take your time, but it's worth it!

Good to see you back in the saddle, partner. This is a gem, totally. Everything harmonious, light, pov, colors. I like the water work the most, foam just right, color of tea (not too much sugar), transparency and underwater surfaces are perfection. Cheers.

Bob, This is great. Into my WIHD folder. I can't find one thing wrong from the outstanding sky to the perfect underwater rocks. I think your skill level with TG is way beyond just about everyone else. You are not only highly skilled, but your choice of landscapes is also excellent. V
