I am a self-taught artist working both in the 2D realm of traditional painting(watercolours,acrylics and ink) and the 3D realm of digital painting and CGI(mainly Bryce and Photoshop).My work is primarily SciFi,Fantasy and Landscape,as well as logo design and conceptual art.  I have always been interested in all things SciFi,as a kid growing up in Rushden,Northamptonshire,England I was a huge fan of such shows as The Thunderbirds,Captain Scarlet,Dr.Who and many more.Upon emigrating to Alberta,Canada I was captivated by the beauty of the Rockies and the diversity of wildlife and spent years studying animals and painting realistic wildlife scenes in watercolour.My originals hang in collections worldwide.Now,my attention has switched back to SciFi,and my knowledge of creature anatomy and habits,as well as colour sense and compositional skills now come into play in a whole new realm...3D.  During the day I work in a gallery and frameshop in Kelowna,BC,Canada where I have lived for almost thirty years.As the shop manager and master framer,I am constantly influenced by the art that is both shown in the gallery and framed for clients.  As a member of Renderosity for just over a year,I have come to know many of the artists here,and have been inspired by their works.I have also been fortunate to have works chosen for display on other sites,and to have been featured in articles in two digital magazines,all as a result of the exposure from this site.My goal is to continue,and push my knowledge with each image.Thank you for taking the time to view my gallery!

That is one very big spider. Could be worse--could be more than one spider (GRIN). Nicely done!

Don't step back! I'm so glad we don't live in the Age of Invertebrates - fossils of 2 metre scorpions have been found, but no spiders quite this big...

Really dramatic use of light on this one. Nicely balanced composition as well. Fine work.

Very nice! I look the work you've done with the sky and lighting. Except maybe the webs added in post don't integrate that well with the lighting of the scene.

Nevertheless, I rather like those webs in the foreground. It adds to the scene.

Very nice image. Very reminiscent of Retro sci-fi movies of the 50's and 60's. I think the image came together wonderfully. I've never used the Daz Black Wido as I never liked it's look, but this is a fantastic image using it.
