That's my husband David and I, and my beloved kitty Lucia. Lucia adopted me in 1996, and David and I found each other here..we started as best of friends, and are still soulmates. We were married in England on 6 May, 2005.
BIOI've been dabbling in digital art for about 6 years, starting with Bryce 3. I think I've improved quite a bit. I've been at Rendero for quite a few years; enjoy the forums and galleries. I do graphics mainly as stress relief, and also because I can't draw with a pencil and paper worth a damn! (Didn't inherit any of my father's prodigious artistic talent)
The main programs I'm using these days are Vue Infinite, Poser 4.03, 5 and 6, PhotoShop 6 and CS, and PaintShop Pro 7 & 8. I also play with Terragen and Mojoworld 2 & 3 (among others).
I don't really stick to one genre; I've been bouncing between nature scenes, portraits, with and without postwork, people, places, things, nature, animals, and fantasy. Right now I'm concentrating on texturing and lighting in Vue 4 Pro, and have been doing sprite images because they make me feel so lighthearted.
My sweetheart's name here is madasatadpole, and he's a very talented and creative artist. Please visit his gallery to see some stunning landscapes as well as some very silly humor! So thanks to Renderosity for not only being a source of information and fun all these years, but for bringing me the most precious gift of all. His dad also has a gallery here, madasadadpole, lol, please stop by and check out his lovely watercolors.

I love your poser work... Lighting and textures as well as the veg, are beautiful, as as if it wouldn't be. Excellent work Christie...keep it up:)

Beautiful trees and surroundings. Fantastic lighting

Totally dont agree with Endymion. The light work itself is exceptional. The characters are well posed and that setting is just beautiful. You have always managed to do very detail forest scenes without Infinite and great to see you continue to do so, with or without it. Very well done.

a wonderful piece of art... a pleasure for the senses.

I love your shadows! It makes your scenes SO more realistic! Awesome work!!! And Endymion doesn't realize your doing this for fun, not for work. And DON'T YOU DARE GIVE UP like he suggested. Ignore him. Excellent work! I love your scene!

The lighting is lovely! The depth of the render is excellent. And as for Endymion, anybody been to HIS gallery? Not sure what is original about a bathroom, or a room with a Frank Lloyd Wright floor, but whatever. Obviously the two of you have different styles. I prefer yours. Keep up the good work! ;-)

Household goods areived? Are you talking about Infinite? :-))) Or the plan for the back garden? Or...? However, good to see you have fun! Very good! BTW, this is an excellent image. Superb light, super vegetation! Klasse.

i do not know why Endymion writes here so arrogant comments. a visit in his gallery, does just not show ability and originality either. most of us are hobby artists and make pictures for fun. that should not be able to be spoiled one, by such comments. wonderful light and mood in this. excellent vegetation and composition again. very beautiful done! :)

Fantastic Scene!!!! =0)

Great image as always and I love the foreground and the lighting on the tree trunks. The background could be improved IMHO. The grey fog reminds me a bit about Morrowind. This kind of fog is often used to minimize the number of polygons for 3D cards, so they can handle it. I would suggest using fog for showing the depth, if you like, but also an alpha plane to give the background more life. Just my opinion and no offense meant. The detailed foreground is excellent.
DigReal
Ah, a sweet and romantic scene. Of course, I really enjoy the textures and shadowing on the tree trunks. ;-)

Outstanding foliage & posing. Well done as always :)
TheWingedOne
:))) Very romatic image indeed. The soft lights create a very peaceful mood and the whole scene is very well set up - frankly I didn't expect anything else. ;) Brilliantly done, Christie!
