January 2013
Been at this site five years now and have seen a lot of growth - both artistically and spiritually thanks to the many good friends I have met here. I work with Poserpro2012, photoshop CS6, PSPX2, Perfect Effects 3 and Photomatrix 4. I love working in the material room and continue to find lots of growth there. I also do a lot of postwork fixing, special affects, and framing, all for which photoshop is indispensible. I love doing postwork; no image is anywhere near complete without it.
In the last year or so I've added quite a bit of photography to my gallery. I started with a Nikon Coolpix 9100 point and shoot. It gives amazing quality and its small size makes it easy to pack around and just grab some shots as they come into my vision. I still use it for sneaky people shots but now I use a Nikon D5100 DSLR for my more serious keeper work. Had I known how all consuming my passion for photography would become I should have jumped to a D600 low end pro camera.In my gallery you will see mostly storylines based upon my own visions and versions of Mesopotamian Mythology, sprinkled with some Celtic works and an occasional pinup or two and quite a few special requests. I have long been a writer, though a terrible speller, and so most of my images come with a storyline or poem. No image seems complete to me without words to accompany them.In high school I trained in both the Sciences and Fine Arts but when I went to university I had to choose one or the other and so I went with the life sciences. Art dropped out of my life for a long time... though I never gave up my interest in archeology and mythology. I wound up with a graduate degree in the life sciences with majors in physical geography, ecology and evolutionary biology. My love of nature and a deep naturalistic spirituality eventually led me to the wikkan tradition.Some five and a half years ago I discovered poser after coming across some great 3-d art on the web and after some six months of stumble bum practice I joined this site.Doing this type of art has released many visions and stories that were locked up inside my soul for many ages. It has allowed me to explore the life and times of my primal spiritual ancestor, a girl also named Roxanne, who lived in the Sumerian regions. She whispers the stories of these classic legends in my mind and I create the images to go with them.My stories are mostly written as dialogue and they tend to be rather long. So grab a coffee, a tea or better yet a beer, kick back, relax and stay a while.I hope you enjoy your stay here.Hugs and blessed beRoxy

Excellent job on this Goddess pin-up. Love the wet skin mat and how you mixed and matched the Salome top with the Gold Arrow skirt. The colors ore just beautiful and the smoke just gives it that added something special to make it a little more mysterious. Great job as always.

The textures on this are amazing and I love the way that wet skin effect is rendered, it looks really good. Very intense picture!

Lovely texturing on the skin. Nice work placing the swords in her hands, her grip looks very natural. Other pieces of fine detail on her body, the swords, etc. make for increased realism.

OK I have to say that this is one well put together warrior BABE!! Like your Cat Warrior she is a well thought out and pieced together image. I like the detail you gave her, it looks like she ahs beeds of sweat on her abs from a workout with those sweet looking blades. I like the Roman style handles on them, and the blades look deadly! I don't know how I missed commenting on this iamge before now, please forgive my oversight.

The character is not the only beautiful thing here: The many different textures are positively great and I am so impressed by the realism created by your superb lighting. Very top shelf stuff Roxy!
