BIO I'm an illustrator, and for the last 15 years I have been doing almost exclusively digital work--mostly covers for e-books and small presses; fantasy, SF and Paranormal Romance covers are my specialty. I use Poser, Photoshop and Painter, and a nifty little paint program called ArtRage. I have been lucky enough to have work shown on the BBC's The Sky at Night, done promotional artwork for the Hugos, and have digital art tutorials published in Michael Burn's Femme Digitale and Digital SciFi Art (Watson-Guptill 2004) as well as DVD covers, cd covers and e-book covers, most recently for Liquid Silver Books, Edge/Tesseract and Dragon Moon Press. I'm also a member of the International Association of Astronomical Artists. . When I have time, I do acrylic paintings for fun.
Commissions: I do 3d texturing and backgrounds now rather than book covers, and I do appreciate a good UV template to work on. Thanks for checking out my bio!

You poor thing, here we are in little ole NZ wondering what to do with all this heat!!! maybe a BBQ tonight or perhaps piss the neighbours off with the lawnmower going for a few hours... your girl above could help me and she'd probably love this South Pacific heat right now.

Mow at night, like we used to in NJ because it was too hot during the day..like at 11 PM :D After the barbeque! If Tia could get there she'd never leave! (You have mountains there!) I live behind the highest hill around this place..30 foot elevation.

Looks fabulous, Lynn! makes me think of the song Celtic Woman: awakening
na Misa sana Krismasi na wewe na familia yako. Wanaotaka kwa Heri ya Mwaka zote Mpya!
lwperkins
Thank you! I just got my mother-in-law their newest but I don't own any myself! (It's a good sign you like them!)

Looks most fabulous, Lynn. Great atmo, pose and lighting. Fine job. I did a couple also about the sun. I can only hope you were inspired for this image. Have a happy new year.
lwperkins
I was! We need all the sun we can get right now--and thank you!

Here, Sun, sun, Sun, SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNnnnnnn!!!!! Bet the sun comes just like a kitty does..... NOT at all!! Super image, Lynn!! Happy Holidays!!
lwperkins
I think you are right! And I hope you are ignoring the dishes tonight! :D

Gorgeous image...I'd give anything to be in New Zealand. Anything to be away from this fustercluck of a... sigh...
lwperkins
I think they have heat AND water there, as well as mountains! Keep warm! Thank you too! (I see why you love DS)
Madbat
Warm? Whut dat! I could use some of that sun myself, It's a wee tetch nippy outside.
lwperkins
You might get some--we are now!
fireangel
Oh yeah, good luck to the lady calling the sun! Nice posing, she really looks like she's into the ceremony.
lwperkins
Most of that pose is from a set I like called Fallen Goddess poses--mostly fashion-type poses but there are a couple of "magic" ones!

Holy Cow it worked--it rained last night, most of the snow melted and I am sitting here with just one shirt on instead of three--it's great! I might be able to put peat moss on the roses now! Thank you! <3

Fantastic image! Beautiful artwork! Bravo!
lwperkins
Thank you! I wish , now that I have looked at it a bit more, that I had made her dress a little more dynamic to match her braids.

Wonderful mood to this image it creates that feeling of the moment before something amazing happens, but I agree with RGUS I think I would prefer the cooling rain.
lwperkins
Let's swap! You can have 30 mph winds and 28 F and I will bake in the Southern Paradise for a day or two on the beach :) And thank you!

I wish Happy Holidays full of peace, love, health and with many friends !! May in the Year 2017 all your dreams come true and bring prosperity !!
lwperkins
You too Morgana! Big hugs!
RodS
This is really beautiful, my friend! I think it looks awesome.
I'm just getting my feet wet with DAZ - the lighting is a bit different than Poser, but I'm starting to get the hang of it - i think...
Hope your Christmas was excellent, and your 2017 is full of good things!
lwperkins
It was a mixed bag but altogether it was fine! Hehe! We all survived! The lighting is odd-- but once I realized that you can look from the light's point of view, it got better for me! The latest 3d world has a page on the render settings, too --the "aspect ratio" is for the pixels themselves, separate from the Dimensions :o. And it turns out to be really easy to make Environmental maps for Iray--just make a tile, save it as a .tif, and check Blur so it doesn't print the exact shape of your smudges all over everything. I'm still trying to figure out if size matters--512, 1024, etc. It's a lot of fun, now that I can use Iray!

beautiful scene Lynn and the damsel is gorgoeus. I use to have a neighbor that was not right in the head mowing at midnight. my friend a couple of houses away told him tat the neighbors would call the police. the slow response around here, he could mow all night with worrying about them showing up
lwperkins
I think he was just a vampire and the lawn needed it :D Thank you too!

Very nice work... I am afraid, that all her magic will not be able to blow the political storms away, just brewing together about of all our heads...
lwperkins
Every little bit helps, but yes, I can just hope things will be better than I expect!
