Ros - Portrait of a Priestess (for Val/Godin) by brewgirlca

"A Rose by any other name"
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

First congrats with your 100th post of your creativity. I had the honour and pleasure to been able to see you post the last ones here. Your eye for creating scenes and all the details is amazing and makes one keep looking. The lighting is always one that fits the scene in the right way to enhance the mood even further and that combined with the intriging story/words makes it complete. The characters in the scene did not just walk in, but really belong. Thks for sharing. And hey you made Ros (beautifull Rose) look great. Cant wait for the next series Hug

Her green eyes are very beautiful, the skin texture are first class, I like the hairstyle (not sure about the reddish tint though) and the leaf-makeup is fabulous!. Most important is that she is a real character with some sadness in her (but not too much) . But when shall the story begin? Impatienca!

Absolutely beautiful!

first congrats to the 100th,then you did a very fine work,great character from val and the ligting is superb. and great words about the community,of course it is not perfect ,nothing indeed is,in fact perfect things are suspicious at least to me,but it is a wonderful community,and it is up to us,to each and everyone to keep it that way. i am always sad when i see tha quarrels going on,as for example the one is jealous that the other one gets more comments, hey thats kindergarten -crap,but then some people need this because they have a lack in the evolution ,maybe missed a stage hehehehe. all the best to you roxy.hugs from spain
