I'm a painter, turned illustrator, turned designer from Seattle that now makes a living as a senior creative director in middle of the desert in Phoenix, Arizona. Life is strange to say the least. A few years ago I returned to painting, through traded my Winsor brushes and Golden Acrylics for Poser, Vue, and Photoshop, and have since resumed doing commercial illustration for a select clientele. I mainly work in 3D, but almost everything I do is overpainted until my wrist hurts as I just can't roll with squeaky clean stuff - it's not in my nature.
Recently my work has appeared in Ballistic Publishing's EXPOSÉ, was added to Steve Wozniak's personal art collection, been featured at MacWorld San Francisco and can soon be seen on limited edition tee's at Barney's New York and Fred Segal Los Angeles.
I'm married with three cats and can't seem to have less than ten Mac's in the house at any given time... you never know, I may need that bondi blue iMac for something one day ;)

This is a magnificent scene. Top notch, professional level. I love that Vespa version, love the motion and the incredible density of this scene. Lighting is excellent, of course.

Urban areas at night (particularly in the Far East) are fascinating, and I always liked the way Blade Runner took that "into the future" so long ago. Your image captures the hustle and bustle and busy neon spectacularly well. Motion blur on the figures is a very effective technique which you have totally nailed here. The shadows on the Vespa are impressive also. In summary a fine piece of work and a level to aspire to here at Renderosity.
