I am a developing artist working on improving my abilities to create beautiful digital landscape compositions. Without the help and suggestions of the many fellow artists in this community, it would be a long time before I reach the next level.
BIO
I am a retired procurement professional who has long had an interest in photography and painting; and, lately in computers and photorealistic natural landscapes. I hope to become more proficient and perfect my abilities to produce acceptable work. My experience in art started at a very early age when I would spend many hours sketching and painting. I had instruction at The Art Institute in Chicago, Illinois. I did some freelance work for Flying Models, Model Airplane News and Top Flite Models creating plans and illustrative construction sequences for magazines and kit models. I had spent more than 20 years designing, building and flying radio controlled model airplanes...a very rewarding hobby for me. During the 1970s, I spent 11 years in the hobby of "bonsai"; the Japanese art of miniature trees. In my first 7 tree entry in a contest, all 7 trees were awarded ribbons in various categories. Japanese landscaping became a passion for me where I completed a 3 year project creating a Japanese landscape around my home in Oak Forest, Illinois. I also did this work for several other people in our community. In 1987 I moved to Phoenix, Arizona where I currently make my home. The love of the American southwest and all its beauty is where I wanted to spend the rest of my life. Now that we have computers, digital cameras; and, Terragen; I'll have enough to do for a long, long time.

Cool Bob...I like the mist and the explanation. I have some dark matter in my wallet....I place money in there and it disappears :)...Terragen is even more fun with whiskey and coke...(I'm sure Azrabella would disagree with my choice of "Kentucky whiskey") But it sure helps on those looong renders...:)

Love the terrain and surfaces. Those low poly shrubs I'll blame on the last beer. Agree that an inhibition lowering substance greatly helps when working with T2.

Usually for me after a few beers while composing and rendering, I go back to look at it in the morning and say, "What th - ???" But a pretty nice vista nonetheless, in spite of the influence of demon booze.

Very nicely done! I especially like the way the mist huges lower/valley like terrain of the moutainous regions of this far away place brought closer to us both by Dr. Kibbleschnect's device and Dr. Choronr's skills!!!
