January 2013
Been at this site five years now and have seen a lot of growth - both artistically and spiritually thanks to the many good friends I have met here. I work with Poserpro2012, photoshop CS6, PSPX2, Perfect Effects 3 and Photomatrix 4. I love working in the material room and continue to find lots of growth there. I also do a lot of postwork fixing, special affects, and framing, all for which photoshop is indispensible. I love doing postwork; no image is anywhere near complete without it.
In the last year or so I've added quite a bit of photography to my gallery. I started with a Nikon Coolpix 9100 point and shoot. It gives amazing quality and its small size makes it easy to pack around and just grab some shots as they come into my vision. I still use it for sneaky people shots but now I use a Nikon D5100 DSLR for my more serious keeper work. Had I known how all consuming my passion for photography would become I should have jumped to a D600 low end pro camera.In my gallery you will see mostly storylines based upon my own visions and versions of Mesopotamian Mythology, sprinkled with some Celtic works and an occasional pinup or two and quite a few special requests. I have long been a writer, though a terrible speller, and so most of my images come with a storyline or poem. No image seems complete to me without words to accompany them.In high school I trained in both the Sciences and Fine Arts but when I went to university I had to choose one or the other and so I went with the life sciences. Art dropped out of my life for a long time... though I never gave up my interest in archeology and mythology. I wound up with a graduate degree in the life sciences with majors in physical geography, ecology and evolutionary biology. My love of nature and a deep naturalistic spirituality eventually led me to the wikkan tradition.Some five and a half years ago I discovered poser after coming across some great 3-d art on the web and after some six months of stumble bum practice I joined this site.Doing this type of art has released many visions and stories that were locked up inside my soul for many ages. It has allowed me to explore the life and times of my primal spiritual ancestor, a girl also named Roxanne, who lived in the Sumerian regions. She whispers the stories of these classic legends in my mind and I create the images to go with them.My stories are mostly written as dialogue and they tend to be rather long. So grab a coffee, a tea or better yet a beer, kick back, relax and stay a while.I hope you enjoy your stay here.Hugs and blessed beRoxy

The images are following the narative very well. The lighting and pose are really nice. Can't wait to hear and see what happens next :) Don

Well, this has lots going for it and I love the details such as the reflected skulls and sword- these details are what iuts all about (in my book) really. Attention to detail after the rendering, and you do that very well. I must read more about Ishtar- I will delve deeper tomorrow! it sounds interesting!

Heathcroft: There was no post render work done on this pic. It's straight out Poser 7 with a fair amount of material room work pre-render. Thanks for the positive input. Doarte: You got it. I wasn't really planning on that 1950's B movie look when I started but with the switch to the Portia hair (Retro hair just wasn't falling right) and a different light set it really came out looking like a B movie poster from that era. Funny what a few minor switches will do.

I love the pose, expression, and composition. Really well done and this is quite a wonderful image to illustrate the direness of the situation. Excellent!

kitzie21
Very expressive posing and expression. I don't know if it was intentional but she looks angry as well as in pain. So I'd say she's down but perhaps not entirely out? Great job!
NetWorthy
Wow - you're really getting into your story! Really good concept and composition - the emotions are really shining through! Your lighting looks very good too ;-)

Beautiful scene.. great expression.. You can feel the tension and feel her anxiety as to what is happening before her eyes. Fantasic art.
OrphanedSoul
What a great face! Beautiful work!
shadowhawk2zero
Very nice!!! I like the feel of this piece, that whole fight to the last feel is very prevalent here! OUTSTANDING!
Arumbus
This is a great scene and I really like her expression (and body language). The picture tells a story even without your prose. Great work
Darkwish
Wonderful work! Really nicely done!

This just keeps getting better! Jollyself's comments are so true, your rim lights on the last two images are very effective. Your attention to detail with the blending of background elements and little touches like the fire and the subdued reflections on the floor really demonstrate your growing expertise. I especially like the posing and expression here. She is clearly defeated, but still angry and in pain. Wonderful work!
