BIO
Because we value our privacy at home, I'm not going to say too much here about my personal life. Those that know me, already know probably too much about me. :) I am a programmer by trade and work for a company in Washington DC (even though I live in Florida). I've been programming almost as long (if not longer) than I've been doing art.
In 1988 or so, I started drawing on the C-64 which only had 64 colors (of which only 4 could be used in a certain place). There was a program called Koala Paint that I used to draw simple images with. I dreamed then of getting a 24 bit board I saw in the magazines, even though it was $2400 and I didn't even know what computer they were for. Then I got the Amiga and DCTV. Millions of colors! Yeah! Though it had troubles, it was still awesome to work with and I have found few paint programs that work as well as that one did, though Painter is pretty close. Then I finally got the elusive 24 bit computer (the IBM compatible) and I was on my way, though I still miss the old days of Deluxe Paint and DCTV.
I work in 2D and 3D with an emphasis on 2D. My work includes celebrity portraits, down home scenes, and fantasy. I also lean more toward family art so that I can show the kids, not because I have anything against the more adult works. My mediums include Poser, Bryce/Vue, Painter and Photoshop with a touch of LW (still learning on that one).
Thanks so much for viewing this page and I hope you will enjoy my work. On behalf of the whole family, have a great day...
Oh, and please remain seated until this page comes to a complete stop. Thank you...

Nice work, Shadow. Great expressions, the orc looks like he's dishing out a mouthful and little Cassandra looks like it's in one ear and out the other.

Gawd! Everything goes together so seamlessly! She DOES have the perfect expression! Well done Shadow. You still continue to amaze and impress me!

LOL - Aside from the Orc ears, I bet this is a situation many a young female has found herself in by being scolded by a protective father. The marriage between a hand painted girl and a Poser generated Orc and background is expertly done my friend. One would never know that this is the merging of two wonderful skills. I am truly impressed by not only your choice of subjects Shadow - but you tremendous display of patience to create totally unique images by hand - and this is another fine example of your proficiency at it.

I love how the Orc is yelling and pounding on his chest and she is "deaf" to his rantings. This reminds me of my high school days. Hmmmm come to think of it Daddy was rather orc-like ;]

Very interesting composition... she has quite the look on her face. I think this means she will soon be in trouble... again. Very nice image.
gallimel
it looks so painted , instead of having the fixed beauty sometimes Poser works have :) I am really liking this one under every point of view :) delicious work, compliments :)

I love the girls lips and her eyes, think she looks more dangerous than the orc grins
