My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
In March, 2013, we sold our home in Washington and went on the road in our RV full time. What a blast! There is so much world out there to see!
After traveling around the West for a few years, we got rid of the motorhome and are now spending winters in deep-south Texas and summers in Washington State. Spring and fall finds us visiting whichever place strikes our fancy at the time!
If I’m missing from Renderosity from time to time, I’m busy having fun elsewhere.
Thanks for your interest in my work, and for stopping by to learn more about me!

Oh WOW! This is a perfect photo and an oh-so-perfect gift! This is incredibly brilliant! I love the colors and the inward-ness of it. I'm in a somewhat inward headspace (taking a break from writing [about more Gwotian stuff] before going to bed like a responsible person is supposed to do...or something like that) and so this image fits perfectly into a nice, comfy nook. This is quite marvelous and incredibly relaxing. What a perfect gift!

Oh dear Tara, I really gotta handle your words, you talk so sweet about me. I'm extremely touched by it, as well as by this beautiful macro Iris. You know, Irises are my favorite flowers. Because once, when I was about six years old, on my way to school, I saw standing in a large field with wheat grain, a beautiful purple Iris. I then walked through that big field, and dug out with my small hands this Iris. I took it to school. The teacher, he laid the Iris high atop a cabinet in our classroom. I spent the whole day watching the Iris. And I take him home, I had planted in my own little garden, which I had in our large 'family-garden'. Also, we gave one of our daughters the name: "Iris". Well, now you know enough I think, about my great love for Irises. :D Thank you from the heart, dear Tara!

A very soft colour of the 'inner sanctum' of the Iris - it's almost as if you are looking deep into the heart of it ;) A perfect gift for Jacomina, especially after reading her encounter with that flower ... I am happy for her and you, being totally in sync with her thoughts on this flower dedi, marvellous! BB
