Hello All,

I've been uploading images for a couple months now and getting some great feedback so I thought I'd tell you a little about myself. 

I'm 46 years old and live in beautiful East Tennessee in the United States. 

I am a Software Engineer by trade but  I've been an artist of one form or another since I was young.  My personality profile rates me as "Analytical / Expressive" which pretty much fits my career / art choice.  I started drawing in pencil and charcoal.  I soon got into photography and had the wonderful fortune of marrying my childhood sweetheart who just happened to be stunningly beautiful and one heck of a model.  I also live near the Great Smoky Mountains which are part of the Appalachian chain.  Great source of photography subjects!! 

I pretty much got out of art altogether when my two beautiful daughters came along.  I'm a bit of an athlete (baseball, softball, basketball, soccer) and my daughters are taking after me!  They keep me very busy running from practice to practice while I still try and squeeze in my league games.  Anyway, I still find time to fit in a little art every now and then.  A friend of mine pointed me to DAZ studio, a wonderful free 3d art software product.  I fooled with it for a short period and then had to have Poser.  I'm learning from the ground up and I think it shows in how my images are improving.  I'm a BIG fan of Boris Valejo, a science fantasy artist.  I think my work looks a lot like his "style".

Anyway, I hope you are enjoying my images.  I'm sure enjoying your comments.  As you can see above, I'm a busy man with my sports and my daughters' sports so please forgive me if I'm a little slow putting up new images.

And, as always, thanks for the great comments and THANKS FOR LOOKING!!!

Tim (the Enchanter)
