I'm a painter, turned illustrator, turned designer from Seattle that now makes a living as a senior creative director in middle of the desert in Phoenix, Arizona. Life is strange to say the least. A few years ago I returned to painting, through traded my Winsor brushes and Golden Acrylics for Poser, Vue, and Photoshop, and have since resumed doing commercial illustration for a select clientele. I mainly work in 3D, but almost everything I do is overpainted until my wrist hurts as I just can't roll with squeaky clean stuff - it's not in my nature.
Recently my work has appeared in Ballistic Publishing's EXPOSÉ, was added to Steve Wozniak's personal art collection, been featured at MacWorld San Francisco and can soon be seen on limited edition tee's at Barney's New York and Fred Segal Los Angeles.
I'm married with three cats and can't seem to have less than ten Mac's in the house at any given time... you never know, I may need that bondi blue iMac for something one day ;)

Beautifuly done. I know exactly what you mean. I had a similar forest out my backyard in Missouri. When I was five my best friend swore to me that he saw a flying saucer crash out there during the night and we went searching for the crash site. It was an exciting adventure until he told me that he had found the alien helmet. When I asked to see it he said casually that he had thrown it down the ravine into the creek. I think it was the first time I came face to face with a lie. But up till then, Great Adventure full of the possibilities you've created here. The AT AT very nicely decayed and the woods popping with sound effects and musty smells of rotting leaves. The kids are taking it a lot more calmly than I would. But kids these days, it takes a lot to freak them out. : ))
