Wife, mom, artist, writer... I'm a 40-something Aries. Life is good! I have written a couple of tutorials: Wylder Hair (http://www.wyldebrydes.com/hairtut.htm) Catch a Falling Star (http://www.wyldebrydes.com/startut.htm) Check them out and let me know what you think.
BIO
Hmmmm... where to start? I'm a wife, mother (to 2 little kids and one big dog), homemaker, artist, writer... I've worn a lot of hats in my time, but these fit the best these days. As long as I can remember, I've loved making art. The medium didn't matter, as long as I was making things. I've worked in 2D, 3D (sculpture, jewelry)... I even worked in fiber for a while, both spinning and dyeing my own yarn from wool, silk or cotton, and weaving my own textiles. I have also created and made period costumes (mostly Celtic or Saxon style, but also some sci-fi/fantasy stuff), some of which have won prizes in costume competitions at sci-fi/fantasy or costume conventions. I discovered digital art in late 1999, after my husband and I moved to England (for his job). Since I wasn't working at the time, I needed something to do with my time. I taught myself HTML and made some websites, and then created abstract digital art which I posted to my old site. Later, I found Bryce, and made some landscapes, mostly for wallpapers. While looking for tutorials, I stumbled across this program called Poser. After that, my art took a dramatic turn (for the better, I hope). Although I still dabble in non-representational art, I enjoy creating characters and scenes to depict the images that pop up in my mind. I met Bryden a few years ago, through a Terragen users group (yes, I got addicted to that program, too!), and we have become fast friends. We now co-own WyldeBrydes Fantasy Art (which is, admittedly, off to a slow start), and have plans in the works for creating a site for modelling fantasy figures and props, and creating textures for figures, clothing and more. But that will most likely have to wait until my kids are both in school all day. :) Not much more to tell... I try to keep a balance between practical matters, such as laundry and other mundane chores, and my passion, which is my art. Unfortunately for the house, the art usually wins. :)
