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!

Someone stealing your stuff? I guess it's a compliment of sorts, but it is still annoying. I got somebody's web site shut down for that in the 1990s. Anyway, this shows your usual skill with painting and light, thanks for posting.

Thank you everyone! It was just on a paid website I have had for years that looks like it might go under, (as they do), so I am trying to download and save stuff locally. This is the biggest problem with digital art--it's way easy to have whatever drive/server/website collapse and then poof it's gone.

That is so cool, I do hope you post more!

Fine work with a strong character and great background/setting.

This has a wonderful classic movie poster feel to it. Really excellent work!

That's why I never use cloud servers for anything. I have more control over stuff stored on my end, then on the cloud. 'We are sorry for the inconvenience' doesn't cut it.

Especially when something just goes POOF and the site owners are like "I dunno..guess it was a glitch" (a folder got deleted, luckily it didn't have anything critical in it, but still it was about 200 mb of stuff.)
