BIO
Because we value our privacy at home, I'm not going to say too much here about my personal life. Those that know me, already know probably too much about me. :) I am a programmer by trade and work for a company in Washington DC (even though I live in Florida). I've been programming almost as long (if not longer) than I've been doing art.
In 1988 or so, I started drawing on the C-64 which only had 64 colors (of which only 4 could be used in a certain place). There was a program called Koala Paint that I used to draw simple images with. I dreamed then of getting a 24 bit board I saw in the magazines, even though it was $2400 and I didn't even know what computer they were for. Then I got the Amiga and DCTV. Millions of colors! Yeah! Though it had troubles, it was still awesome to work with and I have found few paint programs that work as well as that one did, though Painter is pretty close. Then I finally got the elusive 24 bit computer (the IBM compatible) and I was on my way, though I still miss the old days of Deluxe Paint and DCTV.
I work in 2D and 3D with an emphasis on 2D. My work includes celebrity portraits, down home scenes, and fantasy. I also lean more toward family art so that I can show the kids, not because I have anything against the more adult works. My mediums include Poser, Bryce/Vue, Painter and Photoshop with a touch of LW (still learning on that one).
Thanks so much for viewing this page and I hope you will enjoy my work. On behalf of the whole family, have a great day...
Oh, and please remain seated until this page comes to a complete stop. Thank you...

I was given to the town undertaker for education. He was surprised I wasn't a quick study. He took another young man on as an ambulance driver who eventually got his mortician's license and got into wholesale embalming to shun the public. Your epitaph brings up my ex's gynocolgist who "plays cards in the backroom." Kind of sly!!

Shadow, this is wonderful. Your work on Jebediah is facinating. I love his look...very much the butler type, and then to add to that the glow which really makes him appear to be just that...a ghost. I just love the work you have done on his face. The scenery in the background of the stairwell and the dark blue foggy sky add very much to the atmosphere and reality that we are indeed seeing a ghost. Top notch work Shadow and I, like j-art, hope to see more...Cheryl

The image storyteller is at it again! You have such an ability to see the writen word and translate it to image. This work as all of yours seperates itself from others. Excellent.
