Art and Scribbles

These are flotsom of my artwork that I force friends to look at. If you want to see professional artwork, look elsewhere. Click thumbnails to see each picture. (e.g. Diana, above left)

Painter

I just got Metacreation's Painter Classic, a cheap program which marvellously manages to mimic real media, to the point that I can't handle the VR watercolors much better than in real life. Most of these are character sketches for a book I may finish before the last Star Wars movie.

Bryce

Bryce is a mind-consuming past-time, especially for those of us who fell in love with Myst and Riven. They are listed in order of creation, since I got a little more complicated with each.

  • Mozhjarrh (I include this just because it was my first 10-minute test of Bryce, and--wow!)

    Character Sketches

    These are portraits of characters in various stories--mine, or those of friends. As such, they tend to be rough.
