Yes, it's true. On the internet, I'm a rather dull, mild-mannered digital artist, but in real life, I am actually Superfrog.
"Faster than a speeding dragonfly, stronger than a flathead catfish. Able to leap ten hungry alligators in a single bound. Look! Out in the swamp! It's a bird. It's a boat. It's Superfrog!"

For me, ideas are like butterflies that are flittering around by the dozens. Just grab one and render it, then move on to the next.
BIO:
I began 3D art with Bryce 3 in April 1999. Before that I played with various 2D styles and techniques. Back in the mid-70's and 80's, I worked in metal sculpture and had a line of "frog prints" selling in stores all over Southern California and Arizona. I have been in art in some capacity since childhood. Since the computer came along, I 've pr3etty much lost touch with brushes, pens and pencils which I regret.

Great memorial to her David. See, Mom taught you to fix up your room and make your bed.. and it paid off in todays render! Super image my friend! I truly love the feel of this one. Big time BRAVO from Dave :^)

The simplicity of the picture reminds me a bit of Van Gough's "Room at Arles" picture (bed, chair, window elements). This is, of course, quite bit more subdued in coloring, but what you've done is very appropriate to creating a mood of tranquility and peacefulness. (Am I being redundant here? Grin.) I particuliarly like the blue oriental rug and chair. However, what I like best is the subject or action of the render; it reminds me of my mother-in-law and her three-legged black cat, Telly (He had to have his right front leg amputated when he was young). They are great company for each other and I'm pretty sure have a lot of conversations each day. An especially pleasing render for me, Dave.

So soft a whole story captured in a single shot At that is to me what art is all about Bravo 5*

You are one of my favorite artist here at Renderosity. Generally I do not post any comment because I cannot say nothing that improves your images (and also because my bad english), but this time I must say something. Beyong your very special and personal technique, you always have the talent to catch and show the spirit of things and people, no matter what is the subject of the image (funny, romantic, landscape or any). You have done it specially in this beautiful picture. It is fantastic.

DLG - Fantastic render Dave! It really captures the relationship that so many people share with their companion animals. I've seen this room in one of your other renders I think, and I love the changes you have made here. The quilt texture looks wonderful! I love this!

DLG~ Dave this does evoke emotion as I look at this, tears are in my eyes. There is a sad quality to this and very touching. To me it speaks of loneness and yet a comfort of a loved pet. I especially like the posing of her hand on the foot board of the bed.
