BIO I was born short, defenseless, and with a head shaped like a football (from the birth canal} but I never had any great desire to play football or to be used as one.
My self-identity began to coalesce at the age of 3 or 4 when my parents succeeded in getting me to internalize a new rule--"go to bathroom on the toilet".
Over the next several years I attained a general level of success in learning how to get what I want and how to do the things I wasn't suppossed to do, without getting caught.
In my 13 years of schooling I learned 3 things: 1 I could have learned all that stuff in 3 years time. 2 I would rather teach myself the things I want to learn, when I want to learn them. 3 Girls are sexy.
After several years of searching, seeking, and supporting myself as an adult I finally discovered that the most appropriate goal for my life is to focus on enjoying my life as much as possible.
Since that time, by a number of means, I have experienced progressive levels of enjoyment.
Ideally I would like to live 1000 healthy years in a row (yes, 1000} contribute amazing things to humanity and the universe, then finally transcend all incarnation in a flash of light that sends a thrill into the heart of every being and makes them all go "Aahh!"
What I love about Renderosity is that every day you surf it you can find truly world-class pieces of art and imagination.
Below, in my favorite images by other artists I have done something different. I have arranged and presented all these images in a Storyline form.
I did not find images to fit the story: instead--to the many artists' credit--I first surfed Renderosity to find my favorite images and then created the story to fit the images.
Each image deserves my praise next to it but I opted to present them in this unusual way. My thanks and admiration go to all the artists for the joy and inspiration their work has given me.
There is a 100 letter limit to write comments next to the image so this cramped the way I would normally tell the story but I made an effort to make it work.
To experience the story, start at the top and read the comment first, then click on the image link. Repeat all the way down.
If you have any comments about this type of presentation (good or bad) I would enjoy reading them.
I have been creating my own graphic art for about two months now (1-17-05). Part of what I like to do is try to provoke a response from the viewer/reader through my comments or questions under the image. I invite you to respond to them with any type of comment, positive or negative, silly or serious, or completely non-sequiter. Every comment is of interest to me.
For images made by me without any of my accompanying comments, please see my gallery under the artist name- quiet_enjoyment .Below, under favorite artists there is a quick link provided.
Finally, I wish all of us great enjoyment in life. And beyond.

That's great! The depth on this one is nice. It will make my chicken cobb salad look much bigger. I'll be careful not to spill.

Lovely work, simply beautiful.

When I look carefully and deeply into the center of this image I see the shape of an evil looking imp (pointed ears, pig nose, etc.). I'd bet you a buck that that imp was not in the original image but only showed up when you agreed to let McDonalds commercialize your beautiful image. Art is like that. It wants to be appreciated and valued for itself, not for how many hamburgers it will sell. Art is like that you know. The only way you can protect yourself in the future from "imp intrusion" in your beautiful images that go commercial is to seek a master ward-crafter who will ward all your future images to keep them pure and safe. Good luck.

Fisr, congratulations on being selected. How did they 'find' you? This image is simply super excellent so I will have to concur with their choice.

A great flame. Congrats on the sale of your fractal work.
