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!

I love retro science fiction for the look of it; there's always something compelling about the way people once imagined "the future," as in the year 2000 to look. Rockets of this sort were supposed to be regular parts of everyday life; we were supposed to have colonies on the moon, ballroom dancing on Mars, a perpetual enemy in the Soviet Union--an ineffectual enemy, always foiled at the last possible moment: or even worse enemies like Ming the Merciless, or even the Baron Vladimir Harkonnen...and stuff was supposed to look like this! Needless to say, this is a snazzy retrofit of a retro-rocket. I suspect there's a really bad pun lodged in there somewhere...but there you have it. I love the colors, the tones, the textures, and especially that nice tilt, as if the rocket is poised to zoom off into the retro-unknown, undoubtedly arrowing its way into an adventure involving women in the habit of wearing as little as possible. This is excellent; the amount of work you put into this shows wonderfully.
