My real name is Marlene, nicknames are Marly and Marcy and I live in California. I am the Mother of 8 grown children, 5 daughters and 3 sons, the grandmother of 22 and 1 more due. Since I can remember I have had a great passion for art. Two of my sons can draw beautifully on paper and canvas although I was never blessed with that talent. Then back in 1998 I got my first computer and was constantly looking at all the art I could find online. Not long ago a friend introduced me to Renderosity and I was like a child at Christmas taking in all the beautiful art. I started playing around and decided why not try my luck at it? And I do enjoy it tremendously and have made so many friends here at Renderosity. Several months back a very close friend here at Renderosity introduced me to the world of Bryce and now I am addicted to it. It's a wonderful program if you enjoy scenery and landscape as I do. Just recently I have been teaching my daughter "SassyLittleAngel" to use Bryce as well...you can see her work here at Renderosity too.
I am a huge fan of this beautiful online site of Renderosity which most of us here call "Our Town" or "Our Home".... thank you Renderosity for making my dreams come true!
 I offer a series of free stuff at http://shahlaa-hopes.angelfire.com/free_art  Please check it out.
I have a web page at http://www.angelfire.com/shahlaa/shahlaas_linkspage.htmlÂ
God Bless and Blessed Be.

I agree with Maike Marlene. renderosity is not a must. Make images when you inspired, make comments when you have time. You dont have to leave the community,just do comments and artwork when you feel for it ;))) Wish you a great time and many hugs.

You have saved the best for last???!!!??? WOW!!! Yes, I know how it feels. I am finding out the hard way that some times one must take a break from what one loves. I'm taking a break from Bryce now... Only got 3 more bryce images to go before I hit 100 and before the anniversary of my joining Renderosity... It has been a wild ride... Trying to get to the top in the challenges (never making it) and fighting blocks (There should be a render in there somewhere). This rendering is great! Take a break. Pamper yourself. And when you feel the stirring of creation within, then it's time to stand in front of the canvas and create anew. Good Luck, Marcy!!!!!

Everyone must follow their own path and their own heart's desires. Even though I respect your wishes, just know that you'll be missed and will be welcomed back with open arms when you decide its time to return. Take care of yourself and safe travels.

Sad to feel you say this isn't fun anymore... I think you're feeling that way about many things. What's your favorite movie? Favorite thing to eat? what would you rather do, watch the sun come up or go down? I encourage you to take the break, watch your favorite movie, eat your favorite meal and make the day your day when you do this... get up before the sun comes up and get to a good location to watch it... then when the day is done,watch the sun go down... then... write down 10 goals.... don't write them in order, write them as they come to you... when you reach 10, then order them in importance... Your art isn't fun because you stopped being fun to yourself. Go talk to yourself in the mirror... weather you know it or not, that person in the mirror is your best friend and an enemy you can't get rid of... so talk sweet to it. Take some time away from here and I'll hear from you when you get back. Stay healthy. Stay strong... LAUGH WITH YOURSELF AND TAKE THAT PERSON IN THE MIRROR OUT TO ENJOY LIFE... Life is what we make it, so go make some life - lol I'm laughing at that, because we are at that age where we don't make life anymore - unless our name has been changed to Tony Randal - lol See ya when you get back... don't forget about the Halloween contest... Yeah, you might be back quicker than you think little girl - lol

We all need to slow down, to take a breather now and then. You can stop and post, stop and view anytime. It doesn't have to be a daily thing. a beautiful, buautiful image, read your story/poem, it was beautifully written. And now you have another direction to take your imagination and your talent.
