  • Jacobi’s Oak

    A love story. A mystery. Past lives best forgotten and more. “Jacobi’s Oak” is a novel of mine going through birth pangs. A talented close friend, Robin Griggs Wood, read an excerpt and was inspired to produce this painting. If I have any say in the matter, it will be the cover.

  • Virtual Set

    A virtual set I created using MAXON’s CINEMA 4D program. With the placement of performers, some camera movement and post-production compositing to bring all the elements together, you would probably never know just in the looking.

  • Looking Up

    Another camera angle on the virtual set. Movement is also possible as well as changes to lighting and overlays of the various monitors depicted on the back wall. It all depends on a Client’s need.

  • The Naked Truth

    You have seen the Virtual Set adorned in all its glory. Here’s a view with all the fluff removed. Gives me a bit of a chill.

  • Strange New World

    3D model of the planet Mars crafted using The Foundry’s: Modo application. Topographical mapping, using NASA’s data, was applied, then fog effects to give the rendering that sense of atmosphere. If you are just beginning to model in 3D, planets are a good place to start your exploration.

  • Roll of the Dice

    Oriental dice modeled with MAXON’s CINEMA 4D application. The material look was patterned after various Jade references with a little wear and tear added to the digital imprints.

  • What if?

    Nothing out of the ordinary, here. Just a photograph. No retouching has been done. But what if several years of neglect had gone by? What if the house was abandoned. What would it like like then? The next slide might answer it all…

    What if?
  • Haunted Photoshop

    …some Adobe Photoshop magic has been applied to drastically age the previous slide and bring it into an imaginative future where you probably would not want to wait around to find out who might answer a knock on the door!
