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 ;)

Normally I don't comment on images with a lot of comments already, because people have already voiced my thoughts. In this case however, I can't not comment. Truely excellent work, in mood, lighting, setting and camera angle. It's nice to see a shot looking up out of a city, rather than down into it. It really does give the impression of lost in a vast space. Well done. Pagrin :-)

Great POV and ounce again your able to make the scens so belivable just like a snapshot of time! It is interesting to look at with so many level of details layered one on top of another. I imagine that if this were a video we could move the camera all the way to the uppermost traffic routes and see the drivers and passengers expressions as the drive to there various destinations! Great job! A fav!

Love the unique perspective. (It gives me vertigo just looking at this piece!) The sky and blowing fog/mist give this work an incredible depth. Beautiful and brilliant!
