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.

Dear Bill, Here's tail end Meredith trudging along!! HAPPY 50th BIRTHDAY BILL!!!! I'm glad it was such a blast!!! You have such a wild and wicked imagination!!! You do so many over the top images!! I can't begin to even imagine the effort it took to create the "Trumpet Head." So many, many parts and details!!!! The reduced palette green really does set the sci-fi mood - as if the characters needed a lot of help!!! As always, flawless attention to detail!!! At 50 you are one of the masters!!!!!!!!! Love ya!!! Meredith

Hey Bill! Sorry I'm late to celebrate the Big 50! Does it get better than the Big 40? LOL! I haven't been around as my computer decided to crash two drives and boy...does it run a lot faster now! Hehehehe! Remarkable scene with so may details to see! perhaps this is the gateway to wisdom or the key to the universe. Whichever it is, it's incredibly creative in your unique style and quite delectable to the eye! Here's to another 50 years...in a time when hopefully all software will work and Microsoft will make Tupperware! LOL! Excellent work and happy Birthday, Bill!
