    Thanks, James.

    I believe I do have 10,000 pieces of artwork on my hard drives, but I'd venture that only a fraction of the collection is worthy of looking at!

    The great thing about posting on the Web, is you can give the impression that all you do is great artwork, keeping the clunkers to yourself.

    As long as this work is an inspiration to anyone, I'll keep posting.

    As a writer of how-to books, it's my goal to see how many people I can grow, who will out-do me in this field! I celebrate the success of others when I know I've played a small part.

    I did this for the express reason of trying to convince the viewer that this is a photograph, and not a rendered scene.

    Which is something I seldom if ever do!

    Looks like a photograph.
    Well done Gare.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    You're all too kind, Larry! Thanks!

    Here's one that is more of a design/logo piece than "artistic". A long-time friend of mine is a vocal coach, and a pretty fantastic singer in her own right. Anyhow, she's in love with butterflies as an image, so I sort of twisted the torso of a butterfly into an eighth note.

    There's a few Xara artists who do absolutely mind-blowing tech illustrations of automobiles.

    I can't even come close to the dynamic quality these folks lend to the subject.

    But I have "done a car" before.

    Gare I keep coming back and looking at the butterfly. I have a friend that is choir director and piano teacher. I think she would like it too.

    Technically, it wasn't a hard piece to create, Larry. Yes, I can see where several people in the music trade might appreciate it; I just enjoy creating pieces that reflect music.

    My Best,

    Haven't been here for a short while, so, I've missed a few postings!

    Brilliant drawings Gary.
    The Butterfly? Now, that's what I call art.

    Loads of eye-popping stuff here, but I actually thought the tennis shoe and the watch was a 3d render until i clicked to zoom in

    i wish i had the time, energy and inner inspiration to create the number of works you have created - life is simply too short, but therein lies its preciousness
    If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
    They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
