Please DO NOT steal my bandwidth by hotlinking. This can be tracked and you
WILL be
reported for the theft. This can result in
termination of your web hosting, ISP contract and other services used to
commit the crime and, possibly, further prosecution.
Please note that my galleries are arranged in chronological order for the
most part, with older stuff first so you can see the progression of the art
as you go. If you want
to keep the thumbnail galleries open while you browse images, just right
click an image link and choose "Open Link in New Window". Each image page
has a "previous" and "next" button so you can move forward and backward
through each gallery from the new window. Note that "Gallery
C: The Future" is not set up this way because as works are completed, the
WIP page gets linked onto the page of the finished image and it's too much
work to have to keep reorganizing it when I finish a piece. In that section,
you may simply use your back button or open the pages up in a new window as
you browse.
I have been creating art as far back as I can remember. It began with crayons,
finger paints and a love of animals. Then, when I discovered mythology at an early age, the
artwork evolved to contain more and more fantastic images. Some were my interpretations of
old myths. Others came to life on their own through my very active imagination. Over time,
I began experimenting with many forms of media: graphite, colored pencil, charcoal,
pastels, chalk, watercolor, ink, scratchboard, clay, acrylic paints and even photography.
My latest experimentations have been in the realm of
digital art. I don't have the means for the 3D style art and likely won't go there
any time soon. I
find many of the programs used to create it are complex enough that they become too
technical for my creative side to deal with. I do sometimes use DAZ 3D
Studio to mock up poses and lighting, but I just don't have the technical
skill or patience to do fully 3D art with it. That is slowly changing the
more I work with it and I recently did my first fully 3D work where the
background and everything were all 3D models. It was then postworked in
Paint Shop Pro 9. Despite my ham-handedness with the program, it came out
rather well.
What you will find in these galleries is by no
means the full body of my work. Some pieces have been lost to the storms of
the Texas coast and some have been given as gifts, sold or donated to
charities before images of them could be taken.
