I am a developing artist working on improving my abilities to create beautiful digital landscape compositions. Without the help and suggestions of the many fellow artists in this community, it would be a long time before I reach the next level.
BIO
I am a retired procurement professional who has long had an interest in photography and painting; and, lately in computers and photorealistic natural landscapes. I hope to become more proficient and perfect my abilities to produce acceptable work. My experience in art started at a very early age when I would spend many hours sketching and painting. I had instruction at The Art Institute in Chicago, Illinois. I did some freelance work for Flying Models, Model Airplane News and Top Flite Models creating plans and illustrative construction sequences for magazines and kit models. I had spent more than 20 years designing, building and flying radio controlled model airplanes...a very rewarding hobby for me. During the 1970s, I spent 11 years in the hobby of "bonsai"; the Japanese art of miniature trees. In my first 7 tree entry in a contest, all 7 trees were awarded ribbons in various categories. Japanese landscaping became a passion for me where I completed a 3 year project creating a Japanese landscape around my home in Oak Forest, Illinois. I also did this work for several other people in our community. In 1987 I moved to Phoenix, Arizona where I currently make my home. The love of the American southwest and all its beauty is where I wanted to spend the rest of my life. Now that we have computers, digital cameras; and, Terragen; I'll have enough to do for a long, long time.

I took artgum's suggestion and viewed full size...though I do with all choronr images.:) The grass and plants are spectacular but, on my monitor the rocks seem a bit too blue and do not have enough random rough colors. The fog/clouds are also super so, this image is a success. Very cool. Bob, you asked for more honest responses, I really like this image but, the blue/grey rocks need some more color variation for my taste. Still, very nice work!!!

Moody and rugged and very beautiful. I do agree that there could be more variation in the grey rock surface. Still, such excellent work.

The populations of the grass are really nice and very natural. The look fuzzy and soft, the kind we used to like to lay in as youths!!!
