Hi everyone, and thanks for visting my home page here on Renderosity.
My gallery here consists of both 2D and 3D work, and I always list the software I used to make it. If you have any questions on how I did something, feel free to contact me.BIOIt really is an honor to have the ability to display my art work here, among such a rich and vibrant world-wide artist community. I am often amazed, and even more often humbled, by the artists and the work I see here.
If you see anything in my gallery that you particularly like, please don't be shy, let me know by leaving a comment or by signing my guest book below. It's how I learn to improve myself, both as an artist, and as an objective viewer of art, so it really is appreciated.
A little about me:
Well, as you can see, I'm kinda too young for my own good. Born in 1957, I refused to emotionally mature any further after age 7, hence the picture here --->; think of this as a precise picture of the emotional me!
I'm a proud Daddy, who practices architecure here in NY all by my lonesome self; I draw, sculpt (when I can), play guitar (when the local ordinances haven't figured out how to stop me), design web sites, create all sorts of digital art, do some light programming and multimedia stuff, and, work out almost every day (one day, when I really grow up, I'm gonna be Arnold!).
Art has been a major part of my life since my 2nd grade friend, Walter, used to draw comic book heroes for me during lunch. That's when the bug hit me, and never left. I always drew things and created stuff, but it was secondary to playing baseball and basektball when I was younger. Today, I still play ball, but my art comes first; you can catch me at my 'puter most of the time, deeply entrenched in Strata 3D, my very favorite 3D program, as you can see from the images in my gallery here - one day, if I practice long and hard enough, I might actually become almost good with it!
Oh crap, Jimmy Neutron is starting...
Gotta Blast!

Although this may sound strange Howie - I wasn't expecting this render at all - but I confess I really never know what to expect from that alert brain and highly skilled hand of yours. I was automatically transported as if by a magical time machine to a point in my distant past where I had a small single room in a brick boarding house, where when looking out the only window, I was greeted by a view not unlike this one. Your skill in 3D creation just makes the artist in me drool with jealousy. This is so much a slice of life, and so beautifully executed my friend - and I give it a hearty vote just on the nostalgia you gave me. Also - have you got your e-mail addies fixed - all my e-mail keeps coming back as undelivered. Take care my friend - great work as usual.

WOW! .... yea, just WOW!

Awesome. Reminds me also of a flat I had in Brooklyn many moons ago where the only view was a light courtyard (four brick walls). Keep up with the architectural vistas.

Very nice work! I like the idea and the implimentation... but I noticed a jagged horizontal line of light and shade between the upper and lower window panes. Maybe boosting the oversampling would help. But then, that would also help boost your rendering times! ;)

this rocks, im throwing maya in the bin and getting me a copy of strata 3d, amazing stuff!

Very beautiful work, but especially an object of art, warm and personal, what is rare in the "country" 3D submarines, Gothic, parallel worlds and madmen of the cinema.

I bought strata 3d because of this piece and a few others.
