January 2013
Been at this site five years now and have seen a lot of growth - both artistically and spiritually thanks to the many good friends I have met here. I work with Poserpro2012, photoshop CS6, PSPX2, Perfect Effects 3 and Photomatrix 4. I love working in the material room and continue to find lots of growth there. I also do a lot of postwork fixing, special affects, and framing, all for which photoshop is indispensible. I love doing postwork; no image is anywhere near complete without it.
In the last year or so I've added quite a bit of photography to my gallery. I started with a Nikon Coolpix 9100 point and shoot. It gives amazing quality and its small size makes it easy to pack around and just grab some shots as they come into my vision. I still use it for sneaky people shots but now I use a Nikon D5100 DSLR for my more serious keeper work. Had I known how all consuming my passion for photography would become I should have jumped to a D600 low end pro camera.In my gallery you will see mostly storylines based upon my own visions and versions of Mesopotamian Mythology, sprinkled with some Celtic works and an occasional pinup or two and quite a few special requests. I have long been a writer, though a terrible speller, and so most of my images come with a storyline or poem. No image seems complete to me without words to accompany them.In high school I trained in both the Sciences and Fine Arts but when I went to university I had to choose one or the other and so I went with the life sciences. Art dropped out of my life for a long time... though I never gave up my interest in archeology and mythology. I wound up with a graduate degree in the life sciences with majors in physical geography, ecology and evolutionary biology. My love of nature and a deep naturalistic spirituality eventually led me to the wikkan tradition.Some five and a half years ago I discovered poser after coming across some great 3-d art on the web and after some six months of stumble bum practice I joined this site.Doing this type of art has released many visions and stories that were locked up inside my soul for many ages. It has allowed me to explore the life and times of my primal spiritual ancestor, a girl also named Roxanne, who lived in the Sumerian regions. She whispers the stories of these classic legends in my mind and I create the images to go with them.My stories are mostly written as dialogue and they tend to be rather long. So grab a coffee, a tea or better yet a beer, kick back, relax and stay a while.I hope you enjoy your stay here.Hugs and blessed beRoxy

ROFL! I vaguely remember that party -- I don't know what Zlata does with the wine, but it is almost like a brandy! Thanks for the great image and story, Roxy
zil2008
Ya that Zlata sure knows how to throw a party. That Fae Valley crew is a tough bunch. Good thing your crew has a bad memory or maybe the wine just blacked out their memories. Sounds like another great party in Fae Valley for Mike. Happy Birthday Mike!

Ohh, that is Zlata in the crystal ball. Nice! I love the mice. They're great. Haha, leave it to the dragon to puke in your purse. I suppose it's better that he's a 'pocket-book' size though. Lol. Excellent work on this and wonderful dedication to Mike :)
galung

Ah, but one must remember... The lost Seeing Stones are not all accounted for... You don't know who may be watching... Although it appears Queen Zlata has one, too! This is superb, Roxy as is all your artwork - the smoky/misty atmosphere gives it that wonderful sense of mystery... So the little guy yakked in your purse last year, huh? Perhaps a small tankard of Swill this year, rather than Dandelion wine....
