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!

Interesting. I like the way the light fades out. It looks like night.

Great plants! Just as I like, alien and familiar at the same time. I also like the camera angle. Good job!

Pretty cool render!! :)

Another great image!!! It's refreshing to see some alien landscapes populated by foliage/lifeforms for a change. Wonderful use of the soft shadows feature in Bryce. It can add to the render time but depending on the requirements of the image the results are worth the wait. 5+

These are really cool, Neil. The colors and dark background really make the image pop. Great render.

I like the colors, the trees are unique which is great. I'm not fond of the image though. Just doesn't do anything for me, it almost seems like there is no land formation that these trees are popping out of. However I love the dark dreary sky! Great mood
