That's my husband David and I, and my beloved kitty Lucia. Lucia adopted me in 1996, and David and I found each other here..we started as best of friends, and are still soulmates. We were married in England on 6 May, 2005.
BIOI've been dabbling in digital art for about 6 years, starting with Bryce 3. I think I've improved quite a bit. I've been at Rendero for quite a few years; enjoy the forums and galleries. I do graphics mainly as stress relief, and also because I can't draw with a pencil and paper worth a damn! (Didn't inherit any of my father's prodigious artistic talent)
The main programs I'm using these days are Vue Infinite, Poser 4.03, 5 and 6, PhotoShop 6 and CS, and PaintShop Pro 7 & 8. I also play with Terragen and Mojoworld 2 & 3 (among others).
I don't really stick to one genre; I've been bouncing between nature scenes, portraits, with and without postwork, people, places, things, nature, animals, and fantasy. Right now I'm concentrating on texturing and lighting in Vue 4 Pro, and have been doing sprite images because they make me feel so lighthearted.
My sweetheart's name here is madasatadpole, and he's a very talented and creative artist. Please visit his gallery to see some stunning landscapes as well as some very silly humor! So thanks to Renderosity for not only being a source of information and fun all these years, but for bringing me the most precious gift of all. His dad also has a gallery here, madasadadpole, lol, please stop by and check out his lovely watercolors.

Hope you will feel better....I like that falling tree, very deep forest feeling there. Mind if I ask you how you come up with those mushrooms?

If this is the result of not enough sleep we maybe should keep you away from any sort of bed for the rest of your life! Excellent stuff Christie. Hopefully the issues are resolved soon. Or sooner!

Your tree barks are always so incredibly real! Where did you get those textures!!! The shadow play is indeed very nice, and the ambiant colour brings all this greenery to a vibrant life. Love the figure and the pose too. Maybe a little bump on the skin? Hope you get better soon.

The off-centeredness...nice word, eh '-)...of the star nymph here, though quite different, works extremely well here, Christie! Toss is some brilliant texturing and a bit of superb lighting/shadow play and you've got yourself a real beauty!
