Digital Art We all sometimes wake up in the morning, staring at the mirror and notice not everything is okay. See someone else, and not yourself. Is this an identity crisis ?

On an early morning cold day in December, my Mom and I were on the back roads in the Woostock area of Vermont when this old red barn with white birch trees came into view…..As it started to rain I took this shot. I tweaked the color temp. and saturation just slightly on my compaq desk-top computer…..

Digital Art Art can be viewed much like a dream: when we go to sleep, we do not plan what we will dream. Yet, when we awaken from the dream, sometimes we attempt to psychoanalyze the dream’s meanings and how they relate to our lives

Digital Art I wanted to create a powerful and moody image, which told a dramatic story. In all my work, light plays an important part, and here it was essential for the drama inherent in the scene. This was probably the most demanding image I have ever created, in terms of sheer complexity and degree of difficulty. The image was been created totally in Photoshop, and all photos used were from my own photo stock.

Photographic Art They say every cloud has a silver lining. Must be true. Took this sunset shot on 06-30-2010 with my Canon 50D in Carefree Arizona, USA. We were staying in a resort and just got done with dinner. On the way back to the resort I noticed that the sunset was very close and it looked like to was going to be a good one. So I had to hurry and get in the right spot in which there was minutes to set up and take the shot. I snapped about 6 shots and this was one of them. Did very little touch up to this RAW image in CS3 and used the Flood filter to give it a nice glow.

Digital Art Has you ever censored or have been censored? Two sides of the same coin. It´s just about that_ and their respective consequences. Main figures are Daz M4 which were morphed and texturized within Cinema 4D; postworked in Photoshop.

Photographic Art This windmill (in Biggekerke, The Netherlands) was built in 1712 by the town of Vlissingen and was originally being leased for 7-year periods. The Olbertijn family bought the mill from the town in 1792 and it was subsequently sold In 1852 to Mr. Brasser. It has stayed in the Brasser family since then, and now Adrie Brasser and his son Sjaak are the sixth and seventh generation that upholds the tradition of wind milling. I must admit, that it’s the first time that I have seen a working mill in action, so I pushed the shutter speed as low as I could get away with (handheld), to capture the movement of the blades. It was late afternoon on a very grey and overcast day, so I decided to go for a more vintage, textured look, representative of the mill’s history.

Traditional Art This painting was a a turning point in my studies of impressionism and limited palette work. There’s no indepth meaning behind this painting but it’s special to me because it began my understanding and appreciation for simpler colours that are easier on the eye of both artist and viewer.
