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.

Even though it is sad and I'm sorry to hear you are a little down, this is a very stirring image. This fits my mood tonight as well. :o) CC

Fanttica.A imagem estal das coisas que estamos acostumados a ver.Ligada ao sobrenatural.Passa a sensao de melancolia, podendo- se fazer atuma relao entre como nos sentimos por dentro em meio todo esse sistema social que vivemos nos dias de hoje.uma maneira de expressar nossas fraquezas como seres humanos em forma de arte.Muitas vezes nos sentimos isolados,perdidos, sozinhos em um canto escuro com a companhia do nosso verdadeiro eu, sem mcaras e acredito ser esse instante ao qual a imagem retrata.

That is what Art is about... conveying emotions. Fantastic piece Christie!

Esta imagem tem um tom de realidade que nos leva a pensar em emoes e sentimentos, pois a solid desta garota em um lugar sombrio com este grau de realidade nos aproxima da imagem. Esta garota com corpo bonito, poucas roupas e costuras no rosto parece ter passado por cirurgias para alcanr expectativa de outras pessoas para ser o que ela "deveria" ser. Enfim, com apenas esta imagem estica podemos criar toda uma hitia pois ela tem pontos muito chamativos e assustadoramente reais.

Imagem muito boa! Me passa uma grande sensao de solid. Da impress que a menina foi largada em um lugar sujo, rejeitada, por seu visual um tanto quanto grotesco ( toda costurada, careca... ). Por esse motivo, ela estdeprimida. Esticamente, a obra tamb muito boa: o 3D muito bem feito. Sombra colocada em seu corpo dmais realidade a obra, e o espa onde ela foi colocada tamb foi muito bem pensado! Grande obra!
sedky
Esta uma imagem muito forte, onde nos passa um ar de depressao e nostalgia, a combinao de cores melancolicas transparece uma dificuldade que a pessoa esta passando no momento. um desenho muito bem feito e arquitetado esteticamente
chantts
A imagem tem um toque sombrio, o que a deixa sinistra e ao mesmo tempo muito bonita. Foi muito bem produzida, a melhor de todas em termos de produo, pois a sombra e a iluminao absolutamente perfeita, transformando uma imagem simples, em algo maravilhoso e atpoico.

I really wish that i could have caught this image at a earlier time, the mass size of renderosity makes it hard to pull the quality work to the surface such as this beautifull render, truly excellent work!
