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 beautiful image! Lovely composition and colouring. Although Sock's gaze is a little alarming. I have the bad feeling that the golden fishes are going to be decimated ... :)

cool work :)

Lovely to see an image from you Christie and what a delightful one it is!! Awesome scene with your little guys!! Gorgeous as always.

Snails? Well, throw them to the neighbors. That is what they do too i think. And work? Is it worth all that? When i see this beautyful image i think you should come back to the creative and peaceful days that we all wished for in the past :-)))) . But seriously, i would propose you do more images and less work again. Your talent asks for it.

It all works, but the fish are just outstanding.

Good to see you back, Christie. As Walther already suggested, expel those bloody snail to the neighbors garden, because that's the place where they came from! ;) Hopefully we'll see some more of your beautiful images and also say "hi" to your hubby. Cheers, Phil

Cute and excellent render. Wonderful colors and textures (especially on the cat). The pose of the left cat and the water with the fish are so real. Definitely one of your best images.

I really like this one, Christie. Makes me miss my cat, Frankie. I am doing some flower gardening myself. Mostly, it's battling the heat and weeds, but I love the results. Don't you?

Fantastic image! Very well composed. I love flowers and... fish :)
romanceworks
Oh, this is so beautiful and full of life. Just adore the composition and those sweet kitties, fish and gorgeous flowers. Gardening in the high country is quite a challenge ... no snails, but virtually every tree and flower I planted last year didn't make it through the winter ... so I get to do it all over again. Geeze ... :o) CC

I just love this! The fish look toooo good! Wonderful image! :) We still have to wait a few weeks to plant anything. :(

Beautiful. Love the pose of that cat looking into the water. Atmosphere and colour are wonderful.
FrenchKiss
This is just beautiful. But from what I've heard about Sox, he will have probably jumped into the water and fishing his heart out by now!
gillbrooks
Delightful image! Get some frogs in your garden to keep the slugs at bay :)
Rynn
Awww, this is so cute and adorable. Wonderful work! :)

Excellent scne, Christie!! RE: Snails and slugs..use salt (regular granulated table or sea salt)
BGHart
This is awesome. The composition, the strong colors, the whole idea! vote Sorry, I am late, but I went for a little trip in the deep woods of Germany with my husband. :)

Beautiful image Djeser! I just love those fish! You've captured the underwater-ness of them so well in this one. Clare says hello to Lucia and tells me to warn her that if she doesn't pay attention, Sox is going to get all the fish!

Lovely Lovely Lovely

Such sweet kitties - posed beautifully. A beautiful image full of color and light!
Lyne
Salt for the snails and slugs! Put a solid salt "fence" around garden maybe? Meanwhile, such a lovely place with the kitties! :))

this is a lovely piece... the cat poses are fascinating.
