Good lord.. I've really got to get on this whole update thing, don't I?
Â
Tell you what... I'll promise to try, if you all promise to believe me and forgive me when I forget again, yes?
Â
Awesome!
See? Everyone wins :)
Let's see.. Where were we? Ah yes.. I'd left RDNA, my home away from home due to growing physical issues that were preventing me from working. Hardly seemed fair for me to stay there that way, as there were so very many incredibly talented artists capable of fulfilling the quota required and here I was busy getting my spinal nerves burnt off.
Nevertheless, I am alive and remarkably enough, actually on the road to recovery at long last. When I began my therapy a few years ago, it was presented as something along the lines of a 'once in a while thing' and that I'd be back to normal ( or as 'normal' as I get, anyway) in no time.
That was what.. 2? 3 years ago now? That will teach me to listen to doctors.
ANYWAY..
Yes. Better is good. I got here without the help of the medical community, ironically enough. By the time they had finished with me I was unable to walk without a cane and told to expect a wheel chair within 6 months. That was 7 months ago and I've been without a can for three of those and in less pain for two.
Can anyone say 'Insurance milking'?
Ahh see? I knew you could :)
So here I am. Painting on commision now and working in 3d and doing the texture thing here as well again. It's nice, even if it isn't like it used to be. I still adore doing it and thus being ABLE to do it doesn't suck either, no?
And there we have it. An actual update! Try to contain your wonder ;)
Now perhaps I will get less emails from people wondering where I am and where all my stuff went! :P
Â
Peace.

This is the first post of yours I've seen (I'm new) But I feel quite sure that the important word in what you are feeling is "tired" - you're just tired, because this is really wonderful. I looked at the original photo. Worlds apart. Universes. I use Painter 8 too (mostly airbrushes) Just trust me on this, okay? I'll have to look at your gallery and if you always paint like this, I swear, I'm outta here!

Not so sure what you are unhappy about this looks execellent to me, maybe a little soft if anything, but that works very well with this Lady. In my humble opinion this is a Execellent work of art......V....John

i agree its great. there arent many aspects of it you can improve on, although there is always little things that you wont be able to see simply by looking at it, ull have to analyse it. and for me it looks just great. its like you know when people go to listen to opera and all types of music, if they dont playa na instrument and dont exactly know this particular piece, they wont even notice when the artist makes a mistake and plays a different note, it will be just as good to them. im like that with computer art. im sure someone who does this all the time will be able to point out some flaws, but to me as i said this looks very good. keep posting. :D

Looks like a Ver Meer, very nice. Although it looks like you squashed the picture a little, the head looks a little misshapen. But your painting style is very good.
