I am a self-taught artist working both in the 2D realm of traditional painting(watercolours,acrylics and ink) and the 3D realm of digital painting and CGI(mainly Bryce and Photoshop).My work is primarily SciFi,Fantasy and Landscape,as well as logo design and conceptual art.  I have always been interested in all things SciFi,as a kid growing up in Rushden,Northamptonshire,England I was a huge fan of such shows as The Thunderbirds,Captain Scarlet,Dr.Who and many more.Upon emigrating to Alberta,Canada I was captivated by the beauty of the Rockies and the diversity of wildlife and spent years studying animals and painting realistic wildlife scenes in watercolour.My originals hang in collections worldwide.Now,my attention has switched back to SciFi,and my knowledge of creature anatomy and habits,as well as colour sense and compositional skills now come into play in a whole new realm...3D.  During the day I work in a gallery and frameshop in Kelowna,BC,Canada where I have lived for almost thirty years.As the shop manager and master framer,I am constantly influenced by the art that is both shown in the gallery and framed for clients.  As a member of Renderosity for just over a year,I have come to know many of the artists here,and have been inspired by their works.I have also been fortunate to have works chosen for display on other sites,and to have been featured in articles in two digital magazines,all as a result of the exposure from this site.My goal is to continue,and push my knowledge with each image.Thank you for taking the time to view my gallery!

Cool! Might want to see if you can give the jaguar cut-outs a little more rounding, so they look less like puzzle pieces, though. And if you really get ambitious, maybe individualize the decay on each one.

Very well done detailing, Neil. I especially like the thick ATMOS and shadows on this one.

Thanks for the comments geirla! I was going for a sense of these being made out of the same bricks as wall,thus a squarer shape,and I have done some decay work on some of the heads,but now I think I should make these differences a little more obvious...thanks again for your input,much appreciated!

Certainly an image that would represent our dear Bryce very well. Very well elaborated. Congratulations.

Neil, this is excellent, very different from your usual sci-fi renders so it's good to see you trying something distant. Great modelling of the jaguar decorations and I like the haze towards the end of the passge. Excellent shadowplay on the walls and I like the addition of the btterfly, this is a fav for sure. Tony :-)

Very nice work! It is an excellent embodiment of the three major things I consider good in Bryce: Depth, Atmosphere and Texture Well done.
