I am no longer active here. Too many restrictions and unpleasant interactions with admin.
In addition I now focus on traditional art, which is very neglected on this site.
If you are interested in following my art you can find me on RedBubble

See you there!
About my Art - Watercolor, Poser &Vue I have been painting mainly with transparent watercolor on paper. Most of my paintings depict hypothetical situations and imaginary scenes, striving to capture ideas and moods rather then a resemblance to specific places or people. On many occasions more than one way forward suggest themselves either from the onset or during the painting process. I like to explore these possibilities in different paintings and thus I have several ongoing themes (Some examples of themes I worked on are shown in the image above). I started useing Poser and then Vue mainly to set up virtual models and/or scenes which are then painted in watercolor. The CG images were supposed to be only an intermediate stage, but I now got the CG bug, and I'm trying to make these images a 'product ' on their own accord. Feedback is really very important to me. I appreciate any form of it: comments on the impact the images had on you (or saying it had none), things you enjoyed, things you hated, any artistic aspects - (composition, color, lights & shadows etc.) - any technical comments( eg Poser/Vue issues) and anything else you find relevant. If you dont know a lot (or at all) about Watercolors, Poser or Vue, please dont let it deter you from leaving a comment. Just comment on what you see and what it made you feel or think. You could also ask questions, and if I know how to answer - I will.

an interesting combination of elements. the ribs of the ship, the sailing ships in the distance, the almost sea-shell like vehicles in the foreground... the light is very saturated. i like the cloud composition.

Now, that's original! Interesting indeed. The ships in the foreground, for some reason, remind me of crabs. Very interesting contrast of elements. I like the foam on the shore. My first feeling was that the houses looked too small but, on second thought, they are scaled correctly when compared to the trees. I guess my feeling came from the foreground ships, that seem smaller than they are, maybe due to the lack of details on their structure. Maybe the water is too transparent but anyway it looks good. :-)

Nice composition. Interesting juxtaposition of the future versus the past.

Excellent!

The ships do have an organic sort of feel, to me they looked a bit like turtles. I like the sense of a story happening here.

A lovely render and those ships of the future look great with their inovative appearance.
