Hi, I'm Dave :^)
I've learned that Art is 5% inspiration and 95% perspiration! I started CGA as a hobby early 2004. This site is huge, so if you have seen any of my material, then thank you for taking the time.
BIO:I'm a widowed Electronics and Software design Engineer living in Southern California, about 60 miles east of Los Angeles.
My late wife Robin.. passed in 2003 after 31 wonderfully married years, the last 7 of which Robin was in poor health. I miss my Babe so much...
I'm working with Poser5, Bryce5.5, Wings3D, PSP-10 and CorelPaint8.My mother (Elnor) is also on this site as Silkylady. If you get a chance, please drop by her gallery and see her work.
Finally, remember these words of wisdom:
1) Don't sweat the petty stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff.2) If your only tool is a hammer then all your problems will look like nails.3) It's amazing what can be accomplished when one doesn't know what one can't do.4) Very few know how much one must know in order to know how little one really knows.5) Give a man fire and you heat him for awhile. Set a man on fire and he is heated for life.6) Complexity is a set of things that we figured how to do right, one built on top of the other, until failure is achieved.7) Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.8) Marriage is a place where you can be wrong in ways you never thought possible.9) If a man speaks his mind in a forest and no woman hears him.. is he still wrong?10) If at first you don't succeed, then cover up all previous attempts that failed.
Please enjoy your visit! Dave :^)(AKA: 'davidoblad','DLO')

You captured my day today perfectly! Great image, it actually cheered me up....wierd. I'm sure the "rest who continued" would enjoy a few more stairs.

Great job David! I knew the stairs reminded me of a movie but for some reason I was thinking Harry Potter. I love Mr. Bones too! But then again I'm a skeleton nut. Hope you guys have a great weekend!
Stoner
Reminds me of a day at work:) It also reminds me of an image by M.S Escher. Check that wonderful artist drawings and paintings out if you havent already done that. Anyway I think its enough stairs and youve done a great image.
davidoblad
Thanks Stoner, for the tip on Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher. Checked his works.. very awesome, especially considering He did them on canvas (and not a computer) several decades ago.
csneller
I love it - it would be hard to decide which way to hang it up!
Silkylady
Oh Dave, this pic is very unique, and I almost got dizzy trying to figure it out. Which way is up or down??? I love it. I thought you would give me a pic that I had to figure. Now my brain hurts... Big Vote...Silkylady...
Blush
I love it and the way you presented it also Maybe someday soon I will feel like a lesson and can do a small one grin Until then can always enjoy yours...and thank you for the comment on my new one...writing the website down kinda hurting and got to lay down now... This rocks:) Vote n hugs Susan~
hotracer2

tynana
Wow too cool! Yep, showing my age, I remember Labyrinth. I actually have it on tape and not DVD, eeeeewwwwwww! LOL! Fantastic representation Davester! I love the color and depth is really wonderful, good thing I didn't see it last week when I had the double ear infection, it would have made me fall out of my chair! LMAO! Well done hon! PS: cant wait another Panorama hon, they are so cool!
frogdot

melevos

aliensprog
Man that's crazy!!! More stairs please!!! Another title could be "Here, there and every stair" Nice one!!!
TheBryster
Very Escher! Insanely Escher, and I should know! LOL! Brilliantly done! 'v'
coolcatcom
Yep after careful study of this OMG abstract I have come to the conclusion that two things are needed. 1-More Stairs. 2-Stop Watching Stair movies they drive me nuts. In passing (no I haven't died yet) seeing this in Panorama is a sure and guaranteed trip to the funny farm. Other than that young fella it's a super and creative piece of work ! How's about From Stair to Eternity rather catchy don't you think. "V" George
violet
LOL....yeah enough stairs....and they are right ... the first thing I thought was Escher...Very well done !!!! X X X (the wet ones)
evielouise
Let's see hmmmmmmmmm-- I cannot tell which way anyone is going or even if skeletons walk?? anyway I think its a master piece as it's something I would not ever attempt cause it wouldn't make sense to anyone,but strange enough this makes sense to me hmmmm- tells you something about my brain now doesn't it?? great awesome work dave and very different for you ::Now I'm going to look at it again here hmmmm-- hugs ))
voske

I love this one, it's just how I feel at the moment. I think I can relate to the skeleton that is going sidewards best. Great composition and rendering.lol
