My adventure into the digital art world began in early 1984, shortly after purchasing my first computer, a Macintosh 128K. The Macintosh came with a copy of MacPaint with which I immediately began to experiment. First with illustrations and in 1986, with the addition of a Thunderscan scanner, I began editing my own photos. IMO the computer is the most powerful creative tool yet conceived. Over the last quarter century I've been able to experiment with desktop publishing, music creation, audio visual production, 2D vector illustration, interactive & interface design, object oriented programming, digital photography, video editing, 3D modeling, animation, lenticular imaging, web site design, fractal generation and so much more all thanks to the empowerment of the computer.

Currently, I use several 3D programs (including Poser) to create my virtual dioramas and 3d abstracts. 3D illustrations and digital images uniquely can remain works-in-progress for a lifetime if you so desire. Sort of like a non-hardening clay that you can go back and re-work whenever inspiration strikes again, be it months or even years later. The ability to save images at various steps in the creative process allows you go back and take a different path forward, usually yielding a very different result. What other artistic medium allows you to do that? A perfectionist's nirvana (or hell depending the severity of your symptoms!).

***** PLEASE NOTE: The zoomed preview sections of my images are NOT being displayed at Full Resolution (even though incorrectly labeled that way). My zoomed preview images have been sub-sampled by as much as one ninth their original size (many of my images are 10,000 pixels in the widest dimension) and has resulted in less than optimal viewing. *****

PLEASE NOTE: In addition to unlimited prints available here on FAA. I also offer artist printed, numbered and signed, limited editions of ten. of every image on my site. These images are printed at approximately 9-12' x 18' on 17' x 22' Generations Riviera paper, a 'gorgeous watercolor paper' in the widest possible color space using Epson 8-color archival pigments. Each print comes with a certificate of authenticity, specifying print number, number in edition, printer utilized, inks used and type of paper. Please contact me via email if you are interested in purchasing one of these limited edition prints.
