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.

Very sweet character. Love the dandelions. Good for you about the smoking. Know you'll be a lot healthier for it.

I wish all bugs can look so good. And live in such a nice environment. Congrats, looks like that you have made it! With this vegetation for sure. Maybe you can smoke this grass?

Beautiful work, Christie. Love the vegetation and lighting is excellent. Well done and keep it up:) Good luck with quitting smoking. I have to do the same at some point soon myself. Been a smoker for almost 20 years now and dread to think what it has done to my body. Excellent work and keep it up:)

Oh, wonderful whimsical image. Can tell you rendered in Vue...the clarity is so good! This is just so charming...loving the POV and lighting. God luck with kicking the habit...not an easy thing to do but hang in there! Takes most at least a dozen times of quitting to do it for good. I say well done a WOOHOO!

Great pic. I'd love to get my hands on those dandelions. I could use them for a cowardly lion bit. "..I'm afraid there's no denyin' I'm just a dande-lion. A fate I don't deserve..."
