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 ;)

Sorry to hear of the passing of your friend and companion. I have a Siamese cat that has been with me for well over 15 years, and I would be devastated if he used up the ninth life and had to move on.

There's nothing like the totally uncomplicated and unconditional love that cats give us... I can relate totally to your loss - and to the warmth of the memories of departed pets. I have an almost identical cat that is sitting on my desk as I type this... and five others scattered around the house. Great portrait.
