Gallery
This is a gallery of artwork I create using programs like Photoshop and Bryce. Most of the images are either made
to be desktop backgrounds or happen to be the right aspect/size so you may certainly use them as such. If you
wish to use them on your Web site, I would only ask that you give me credit and link my name to this site.
Bushido 2008
Due to popularity and a few requests, I have created a new, higher resolution, widescreen version of my 2006 picture "Bushido". A Japanese inspired picture focusing on the code of ethics known as "Bushido". The three kanji characters are 武士道 (Bu Shi Do) and the large kanji character in the center is 侍 (Samurai). The faded background is an edited version of my "Harmony" image.
Harmony
Another Japanese inspired image, this time of a landscape with the silhouette of a torii gate in the foreground. The Japanese Kanji character at the bottom (和) means "Harmony". This not only reflects the mood of the image, but also slightly hints at the Shinto religion's underlying principal, at least, from what I understand of it.The gate was made in Photoshop and imported into Bryce, then post render work was done in Photoshop to add the title, borders, and enhance the color.
Think Different
I liked the wallpaper I made for the Fedora server, so I decided to put the Apple logo on it, and add Apple's motto "Think Different..." with a few blurs. Again, simple to make, and simple in design, just like Apple :). This one was more for my own desktop as my current theme is that of the Apple OSX interface.
Fedora
After recently installing Fedora Core 5 (a Linux distro.) on my server I wanted a nice, clean wallpaper for it. This one was simple to make, just a few filters for the background… I got the logo from gnome-look.org, and I pulled the text from the default fedora wallpaper.
Bushido
I've been very interested in the Samurai and the Japanese culture in general over the last year or so, especially their code of ethics known as "Bushido". This image was pretty simple to make. I downloaded a Japanese font to make the three kanji characters 武士道 (Bu Shi Do) while the large kanji character 侍 (Samurai) was filtered from an image I found online.
Reality' s Reverie
This scene is very dream like.. quite strange. The previous artwork 'Delirium' was used in this scene framed and on a glass panel, back lit by a strange blue light.
Delirium
An image made completly in Photoshop with a bunch of filters and some strange ideas. I blended many odd things together like my attempt at making an eye, some strange, broken digital glass kind of shapes, a planet, some stars.. and anything else you can find.
Toxicity
This image was based on a painting I did back in a grade 12 Art class. I wanted the image to look very odd with interesting structures and strange subjects. The fog and colors suggest a very toxic, very unclean place.
