Yearning for the ability to create in a 3dimensional field was a difficult period of trial and error in a bid to locate the software that would speak the volumes she needed to create. BIONeedless to say that many programs were tried and the majority were unsuccessful. Almost at the end of her quest along came Vue d'Esprit.
Never had she felt so much at one with the world as she did with this one application. Her mind was writing the volumes as the render's portrayed the essence of life she experienced.
The turning point came for her in September 2001 when Renderosity held a Vue 4 Contest. Her image entitled "The Pilgrimage" won first prize ~ a copy of the newly released Vue d'Esprit 4. This was the first time she had ever won a CGI contest, and she finally felt worthy of being called an Artist.
From that point on, her world began to change. She met an amazing array of personalities online, some destined to become her mentors, some her peers, and others friends or fellow artists that would become perpetual sources of inspiration, consistently giving her the desire to achieve to higher levels in her personal work.
Having the opportunity to learn from some of the greats in the industry; at first through Renderosity and then through her work and friendship with RuntimeDNA & TeamDNA, she discovered programs like Poser and Photoshop and was able to integrate her beloved Vue to achieve the maximum joy possible in her graphics.
In her current capacity as forum moderator ~ the Creator's Box and 2D 3D Software forums at Animotions and the Vue forum at RuntimeDNA, her personal aim of sharing the knowledge she has acquired is maintaining her ethos that Art is learning as much as possible along life's path ~ be it Canvas or Computer Graphics the result is still the same. Art is 4 Life!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thank you to all of the people I have met along the way. I will always be indebted to you for your friendship, your guidance and your artwork!
I look forward to continuing my journey through life ~ learning and sharing through ART.

I like it. Something about it reminds me of BlairWitch... the grainy quality and the darkness. Very good!
kromekat

Interesting....looks lonely, empty and forlorn. Nicely done Rose...it gets the point across I would say :)

Had trouble with this to start with,the image is so different from the norm that it threatened my own ideas of how i see your artwork. After going back and reading the text, I've come to the conclusion that the threat implied by the image's differences is exactly what you wanted to create, something to challenge the norm, and for that I can only say its a brilliant piece of work.

Good work, Rose. I like your feelers into new territory.

The image & the message are pretty powerful, they complete each other perfectly. Light and "grain" effect work so well together, it's a wonderful image! :o)

Well, this is the third time I've looked at this and I can only agree with everyone else. This image definitely sparks an emotional response. Very good work! :)

Wow. Very powerful image while remaining stark and subdued. If venturing away from your traditional style produces more pieces like this, I look forward to the rest of the journey.

I agree with Shado. Powerful and subdued. I loke the border too.
dark_thoughts
frankly...that grainy look thing has kinda begun to ...be a little overdone...however...you have pulled this off rather well!!! very nice work hun! she does indeed look forlorn...and the grainyness accentuates her "detatchment"from ...everything...like she is far away...physically,as well as emotionally.....excellent pic

the words and picture do provoke an emotional response, and it gives complex messages through a simple image, and in saying that I mean that there is a lot of thought and work that has been done to convey those emotions. I think you have done exceptionally well :)

I'd prefer just a little less grain, but I certianly agree with all the above comments, very well done.
