My name is Douglas Stepanek and I am a full time Computer Tech by day, and a part time graphics idea tank at night. The good thing is that I dont require much sleep to run on. The bad thing is that I come up with so many ideas that I run out of 'oomph' to complete them all. BIOI started young with paints and pens, creating super heros and their vast cities to protect. I found that these worlds that lived inside my head were not only intersting to me, but my friends as well. That was a fuel to my ever growing interest in artistic creation. As I got older I found the computer to be an even better place to create. I will be the first to admit that I am a novice in many aspects of todays art programs....but the ideas are too strong to ignore....so I will learn through suggestions, tutorials and comments. If am so lucky to get them. I have notebooks filled with story lines and artistic designs waiting to be applied but find it easier to create them in my head than IRL. I am a tutorial monkey at best...I read any book, tutorial, guide, bible and 'How To' that I can get my hands on. Learning to create in new mediums is a journey I love to take.
