Hi my name is Bill(started here as Primaltruck). I am an old hippy from the santa cruz mountains.I live with my wife and kids Alice and Chris..we also have 2 other kids Jason and leah, that are married and live elswhere..we live in the redwood forest with a spring and waterfall on our property and about 700 2nd growth redwoods..My artwork is definetly inspired by were i live and my family.My daughter(Alice) being a Tatoo artist and wife being my worst critic.she knows me and knows how to tell me when something doesnt look right without getting under my skin..Alice likes all art so she always says good things that help inspire me and i try to do the same for her..if you look at my rendorosity gallery you will see that i had a pretty rough start and took a year or so to get the hang of 3D art as i have always scetched and painted and created..But learning how to deal with something new is always an adventure..and its been a lot of fun and i have made alot of friends along the way.I mostly use Bryce and Poser and Photoshop on a Dell PC..and plan on getting Vue in the near future..and...I couldnt talk about art with out mentioning Dudley Wade(Prog)Who was one of my first friends here and a heck of a great teacher and i think i learned more from his advise and studying his art than anything else....I dont think i have a style,except that my style is in doing something different when i can think of it!and the longer i post art in these galleries the more i realize that its not really about the art but about the friendships made....getting better with our art is just icing on the cake..I have also been a musician all my life and have played guitar for 30 some odd years..Loving everything from Mel Torme to Jimi Hendrix to all the great new music i hear..some Favorites..Frank Zappa,Stevie Ray Vaughn,Beatles,Pink Floyd,Yes,Scott Henderson,Steve Vai,Joe Satriani,Steve Morse,Nuno Bentencourt,Paul Gilbert,Vinnie Moore,Frank Gambale,Al Dimeola,Les Paul,Chet Atkins,Speedy wes,Jimmy Brynt,Barney Kestle,Charlie Byrd,and many more..i have been posting at renderosity mostly and at Dreamslayerart,Tapestry of dreams,Innertraveler,artzone,renderotica and 3DCommune..not all at the same time...lol...I am very easy to get along with and treasure the friendships made here..I am not afraid to speak up for what i believe in ,am strictly non violent,love nature,and always looking for fun and a reason to celebrate life...so dont be afraid to say hello or ask for help..I dont bite that hard...Love and Peace and Respect.

Very cool scene, of course. I'm glad you still posted here and I agree with you with what's been going on. I think they are all on crack.

Well Bill, you know I love this image as I commented at www.innertraveler.com! I usually don't visit the forums so I'm not as well informed as I should be, but I'll go and try to find the posts there that you've mentioned. It's very sad what is going on here and I wish the people responsible for causing the problems would think about how they are effecting this community!

I love your work and I miss your image. I'll have to read those sections your speaking about. It sounds like I need a little education in what 'rosity' is doing. BTW great image, I love it.

shakes head why cant we all just share the art as it was meant to such as this piece here? Truly marvelous use of the reflections and great metallics - maybe she needs to mother those here and spank em ;) its a shame whats going on here and is there no end in sight that wont cause tears??

and as you will see in the forum.i am only hearing half of a story second hand..the merchant story, and none of renderosities story..as it is none of our bussiness.but since the merchant has spoken so has renderosity!!

Mother sure seems PO'ed! Wonderful image, the skin texture is awesome. Love the mix of woman and Martian war machine, very creative, and the background fractal is super. I've read the forums, and frankly, I don't know what to make of it, except that it's September and we hadn't had our annual stink yet...

Man, I'm tryin to keep a positive outlook. I know it's tough. There's unfairness and rudeness, especially in those forums!! The moderators should be screened better as they are representives of Rendo. I saw a response a while back from a mod to somebody askin an honest question that was so rude I wondered who we can write to about him. I hate termoil especially connected to a place that's supposed to be dedicated to ART of all things. I stay for the people here and the creators/merchants. There are so many good people here. Perhaps the Rendo management should be more diligent in moderating their moderators. It's so nice to see an image from you.

So True... So Very True!

1st, What an awesome image Bill! You are a Wizard at the "Farout". 2nd, Your art touches many of your fellow artists here, and your absense effect their imagination. You are a spark, don't let the fire die! 3rd, Your quiting the battle, and running away is not like you! The problem here will not be resolved this way. Hugs, my friend!

Bill: Beautiful artwork, as per your usual! I've added my 'two cents' worth in the forums, etc., as you know. I had trouble getting honest answers to most sincere questions, often, sadly. To me, though, what's even worse, is the alarming lack of regard to those who voice complaints, comments, suggestions, ideas. Far too often, sadly again, the response has been one of they don't believe the 'members' who make this community even exist or they simply choose to disregard it, entirely. Not a good thing. PEACE to you and yours, kind soul. My best always, T.P./brian.

Well, I need to check out the threads! Glad to see a new one, Pal! As always, your creativity is inspirational!! Excellent work!
