Gallery Notes:
(1) To view my entire gallery, click on the link to "SmithGiant's Gallery" immediately below the Featured Gallery Images below.
(2) Policies regarding access to artists galleries may require you to create a log-on ID. As a long time member of the Renderosity community, I have found no evidence that Renderosity releases or sells members email to outside entities.BIOWhile it seems that I've been an "artsy-fartsy" kind of person all my life, it wasn't until 1995 that I decided to purchase a computer and teach myself how to use it as a "creative tool".
I opened a website called "Thinkpieces" in June 1997, and was forced to closed it June 2000 due to it's popularity and resultant, prohibitive data transfer cost.
While most of my work can be classified as "abstract/fractal illustrations", and it may seem that all I know how to, or do use is XenoDream, I promise that you won't be wasting (too much of) your time should you choose to browse my gallery here at Renderosity. I have tried to select work that I've not only done in XenoDream, but other software such as Bryce, Photoshop, UF, and KPT.
I appreciate you taking the time to visit, and encourage all forms of feedback.

Fantastic sci-fi architecture -- it seems to have been constructed in the stratosphere!

Man, this is incredible! Like a futuristic, post-apocalyptic London Bridge. Amazingly complex and interesting construction, Bryan. The somber background fits it to a T and really gives it great depth. Masterful image, man....

The metallics are incredible and the construction is great, tho a bit intimidating! I love it.

This is a fascinating combination of crystalline (metallic), organic, and architectural elements; there's always something to regard, here...
