BIO
Because we value our privacy at home, I'm not going to say too much here about my personal life. Those that know me, already know probably too much about me. :) I am a programmer by trade and work for a company in Washington DC (even though I live in Florida). I've been programming almost as long (if not longer) than I've been doing art.
In 1988 or so, I started drawing on the C-64 which only had 64 colors (of which only 4 could be used in a certain place). There was a program called Koala Paint that I used to draw simple images with. I dreamed then of getting a 24 bit board I saw in the magazines, even though it was $2400 and I didn't even know what computer they were for. Then I got the Amiga and DCTV. Millions of colors! Yeah! Though it had troubles, it was still awesome to work with and I have found few paint programs that work as well as that one did, though Painter is pretty close. Then I finally got the elusive 24 bit computer (the IBM compatible) and I was on my way, though I still miss the old days of Deluxe Paint and DCTV.
I work in 2D and 3D with an emphasis on 2D. My work includes celebrity portraits, down home scenes, and fantasy. I also lean more toward family art so that I can show the kids, not because I have anything against the more adult works. My mediums include Poser, Bryce/Vue, Painter and Photoshop with a touch of LW (still learning on that one).
Thanks so much for viewing this page and I hope you will enjoy my work. On behalf of the whole family, have a great day...
Oh, and please remain seated until this page comes to a complete stop. Thank you...

Great to see you posting again. I hope your Xmas and New Year Eve went well and were very festive. This is really a great image. Not something one see's very often. Love the atmosphere and effects. Bravo! Mom & I adopted a new dog in our family. Will post a pic of it soon. Real bad shape and trauma.. was a stray, starved etc. At the vets this weekend and we bring it home tonight. Will be two weeks before we can Groom the poor thing (stitches). Saved it from euthinasia at the animal shelter. 6 months old Poodle and Terrier mix. Moms naming it Tiny the 3rd. I'll call it TNT (Tiny Number Three...lol) Mom calls all her dogs Tiny. (I wanted to call it Mop because that's what it looks like) They live about 16-17 yrs and she gets another about every 20 years. Well, about 30 more ebots to go.. Just got back from two weeks of vacation and was thrilled to see an ebot about your posting. Best to ya and big thumbs up for the image from Dave :^)
