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

One really get a feel for the textures, Roxy. This is lovely in it's elegant simplicity. Beautiful contrast between the almost monochrome of the wood, and the magenta hues of the pomegranate. Ah, lucky you - what wonderful travels you are able to take, my friend! I'm sure you'll have lots of lovely photos no matter the weather. Looking forward to seeing them!

Great shot –I like the limited color pallet, not sure if it was from lighting or the camera’s special effects you added. Very nice!

Fantastic colors and structures. Hard to believe that it was not processed. You have a good eye to create a mood of a detail. Here it's like goodbye or melancholy. An excellent capture, Roxy I wish you a good time

What a beautiful shot, Roxy, and no Photoshop fixes on this--- definitely a pro work: the absolute contrast between the gray wood and the pomegranate shards strewn all over the place. It is quite poetic and meaningful in some ways. Aesthetically, it conveys both sadness and cheer because of the color contrast. The scattered elements are like broken dreams, once there and now gone. This image is perfect for a CD cover or a novel book. Fantastic work!

Gorgeous textures and colors, would love to see the places you see, I sometimes wish I would have been born in Ireland or a similar country, living in small town in a cozy little cottage where sheep cross the street and horses are still used to haul stuff in carts, would love to walk the country side in the night with a full moon and fog covering the landscape.
