BIOI was born in the 1950's in Tennessee, and have been here ever since. I like the blues, rock and roll, and a little bit of everything else; I also play guitar (badly). I have worked in about every medium there is, but almost stopped all traditional work when I discovered computer art. In 1986 (can't believe it was that long ago), I bought an Amiga 500 (remember them?). I used a paint program called Deluxe Paint and the first 3D program I used was called Silver- upgraded to Turbo Silver (no, really!) and the program eventually became Imagine. I switched over to the IBM PC compatable in 1995, because the capabilities finally eclipsed those of the Amiga. I now use Bryce, Poser and Photoshop Elements. In art, as in music, I like a little of everything, so I usually surf All Galleries. I recommend this to everyone, because if you limit your vision to only Poser gallery, only Bryce, etc., you may find that you are repeating yourself in your art. Shake it up, and render on!

Can't believe this isn't a photo, your texturing and modeling is just flat out superb! Those crayons look good enough to eat. And I am totally with you, I remember being so happy to get a new box of crayons. Great work John!

Awesome, ;-) A specially memorable occasion, once my mother brought home crayons and the end of a roll of newsprint from the local newspaper, 6x100 feet! I recall, I was overwhelmed to color it all! So, you captured it! Let's "color up" a page.

This is a highly professional image you have here. Very near photo quality. I must say, you were never any slouch but it seems like you continue to get better and better.
