From innocence, the teens, man hood, the joy of parenthood, success, and to reap all of life's rewards with retiring and becoming a proud Grandfather; I feel truly blessed! Sure, there were many unwanted moments along the way, many of which, time has not erased. Some so devastating that I am amazed I have survived. But, only one wish I have made, and only one wish has been granted, "to be Happy"! Delusional and in denial, maybe; But, I'm glad I did not wish "to be Miserable"! :)
BIO
Someone told me I'm 57 (Now 62) and single. Really? I have always been a child at heart. So it is easy to see why I prefer Faeries! I did not need Peter Pan to convince me to "Never grow up!". Unfortunately, that's not the way our species. So on the exterior, I had to. But, deep within, my child remained. I prefer to be positive, supporting the soft, sweet, and gentle. I paint the world in that light. I'm not blind to the horrors of the world, and I stay sharp to the perils that confront us all. I simply do not allow that to alter how I view the world. I believe "Everything is beautiful", "Lead by example", "Love thy fellow Man", and possibly the greatest truth of all, "You can be what ever you desire, as long as you believe and pursue". I have always love the arts in all categories! I have palyed the guitar for over 45 years and have written over 100 songs. I am a minstrel and enjoy sharing my gift of song. I have dabbled in the visual arts since childhood. I won 2nd place in a High School Architectural State wide contest, and wanted to pursue that field, but somehow got sidetracked. The Sixties! During my middle thirties, I renewed my interests in the Arts and studied most of the Master Artists of oil painting, but struggled with its application. It was during my profession as Programmer Analyst, that I was exposed to CAD systems and its use in design, and found the Media right for me. I started with TrueSpace and CorelDraw starting in the early 90's, but it was not until I retired that I was able to give Art the attention it requires! I truly enjoy Poser and Vue and started to work with these tools in earnest in 2002. But I owe my biggest inspiration and push to Renderosity and all the Artists herein, regardless of their skill levels and talents. This community provides a place for expression and a shared interest > The Love of Art! Thanks for taking the time to get to know me. I hope you enjoy my images. Hugs, Dennis :)

Except for the bench setup, looks alot like my setup. A PC dedicated to online and net activity, with nothing of much value stored on it. And a dedicated high-end Graphics machine for renders and no overhead anti-virus or firewall crap. I use a 2-gig stick to xfer data between them. Big thumbs up Dennis. Best wishes from Dave :^)

romanceworks
Looks like a very comfortable and productive work station. And where would we be without all our wires.:o) I agree, I'd much rather be creating art than watching tv. CC
PositivelyCreative
Your office looks like my husbands space. He has 2 monitors side by side at home and at work, plus a lap top. Good grief!! I don't watch TV as much but I have one in my office that grabs my attention when a loud commercial comes on and interrupts my creative flow. Nice photo Dennis!
Danceswithroos
Why not indeed lol I wish mine was this tidy!
foxy-me2
wow you look so neat and organised,lol, i wish i could be as neat, but things just seem to get pushed to the side when i'm on the comp. Charly xxxx
Nickiee
lol, this is great. The place it all happens! Work spaces tell alot about a person, lets just say right now I wouldnt want mine telling on me (yea its time to clean). since ive gotten my new camera, cleaning has finally taken a bit of a backseat....but if you ask anyone that knows me, thats a positive...as Im a clean freak! I love the post its, if you lose one will you notice? I make it a point to stay on top of the NFL, its about the only activity that will take me away from my computer! lol. Your favorite team is???
Rykk
Neat dual rigs but......it's WAY too neat! My workstation is covered with bits of notepaper, cigarette ashes, dried bits of food and empty bags of carb-free sweets. Good thing I have a clear plastic "skin" over my keyboard because the ashes are a good 1/8" deep in between the keys! - lol.

Wow! Dennis, you space is neat and tidy, not a bit like my sty. I have however cleaned it up some since I posted it on here, I am still putting it all back together after the plastering job we had done. I have thought often of setting up another pc but with my radio equipment I do not have the space. I have seen some very tiny ones start to come on the market, which could sit underneath my radio, I will just have to wait and see what Santa brings this year. Excellent shot, of this wonderfully tidy workspace. Bravo!!!!!
