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 ;)

A masterpiece, really a strong overall render and style. I love how you created the bot, splendid. The sky above gives an almost fantastic feeling through the natural aspect of the scene. C-O-N-G-R-A-T-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S ! !

Great comp, lighting and dof. But what I really like is seeing the calm within the warrior, such a peaceful atmosphere for for a character who is so lethal and trained. I love the contrast in subjects, a warrior at peace. Really dig your work man

Always intrigued after seeing so many portraits here (@rosity) what makes me stop and ponder rather than flip to the next image. Echoing alltheoriginalnames, there's a really nice feel in this image and aside from the things he mentioned that feeling is enhanced by the flags. There's something about that antiquated identifier that calms down the hi-tech and suggests a breeze we can't feel pushing the aroma of the flowers. Very peaceful with a touch of melancholy. From the nitpicking department, the clouds are a little too chunky for my taste but I'm sure they rendered much faster than what I had in mind. Those damn volumetrics. ; ) Good one!

Holy cow, that's incredible! The lighting and depth of field is superb and I love the way you echo the red from characters to flowers. Amazing piece!

Classic sci fi scene. Looks great for a book cover, too. Which is always meant as a compliment, imho.
