First of all, let me say Thank you for your interest. 
Some important notes to remember
*I only accept Paypal payments for commission work.
*A 50% down payment is due at the time of your order, the balance being due when you've received your commissioned piece and are satisfied with it
*I literally have thousands of character options for anything from Children to the elderly...fantasy and human alike
*Likewise, I have thousands of clothing options available...I never use "pre-fab" textures in my commission work, and rarely use them in my stock images
*Commission prices are dependent upon the complexity of the commission...starting at $1.00 US

*I will do mature content commissions, but you must be able to prove you are over the age of 18 prior to any release of images.

One never knows what is going to inspire one to create art.  Be it a song, a novel, a scene from everyday life, or just a picture that pops into your head, inspiration can come from just about anywhere, at any time.  I am often up late into the night creating a piece of artwork, as often times, my muse hits me just as I'm relaxing in bed ready for sleep.  Finally having an outlet for those times is wonderful.  I've never taken pen to paper and been able to create anything I was proud of, but more times than not, today, when I create art, thanks to Daz 3D and Poser Studio,  I am proud of my accomplishments.

Being disabled, my income is virtually nonexistent, so I am forced to leave it to my artwork to create any income I have...be it from prints (and other as-sundry forms of "hard copy") or my textures.  I hope that someday I can find other's who enjoy my artwork enough to purchase it.  Many of my pieces are available here at DA for sale as well as at Cafe Press, and you can find the textures I sell at either Fantasy's Realm Market or Poser Addicts.  I also offer a lot of free textures and backgrounds which are all hosted at ShareCG as I can get paid from them while you pay nothing for my work.

What a Journey

4 min read
Well I have to say that my journey here on Deviant Art has been quite remarkable.  

I've met some really awesome people, found some really wonderful artwork and been "discovered" by some folks.  I am really proud of where my artwork has gone over the last few months.  

While I tend towards creating fantasy artwork, there are times when a more realistic approach is the only way in which i can get my concept across.  

It's been commented that I've found a knack for lighting, and most particular, night lighting.  I've worked hard to develop that skill in Daz Studio and feel like I've gotten my feet under me...now to take it to the next step and learn how to light well in Poser.  But, as they say, practice makes perfect...so that is my next hurdle.   

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to add one or more of my pieces to their favorites, and for those who have felt my work was worthy of a watch!  I cannot thank you all enough.  You've given me confidence in my ability when I started feeling overly critical...you've given me reason to continue.

I look back at all of the artwork I've posted in the last year and can see such an amazing difference from where I started.  Sometimes, I wish that others appreciated the amount of time and effort that goes into creating a single piece of 3D art, but then I think--no, it doesn't matter what others think/feel, it only matters if I like it or not.  If I am satisfied with what I've produced, then what do I care what others think?  But I do, God knows I do...and I pray to God to take away these feelings.  I guess we all hope for just a little bit of recognition from the outside world.  To know that someone appreciates our work, to know that it has a chance to be seen.

Found on another's site, and because this is true for both men and women, I chose to add it here.

I'm Sorry/Girls don't realize these things (and the same can be said for guys at times)

I'm sorry
that I bought you roses
to tell you that I like you

I'm sorry
That I was raised with respect
not to sleep with you when you were drunk

I'm sorry
That my body's not ripped enough
to "satisfy" your wants

I'm sorry
that I open your car door,
and pull out your chair like I was raised

I'm sorry
That I'm not cute enough
to be "your guy"

I'm sorry
That I am actually nice;
not a jerk

I'm sorry
I don't have a huge bank account
to buy you expensive things

I'm sorry
I like to spend quality nights at home
cuddling with you, instead of at a club

I'm sorry
I would rather make love to you then just screw you
like some random guy.

I'm sorry
That I am always the one you need to talk to,
but never good enough to date

I'm sorry
That I always held your hair back when you threw up, and didn't get mad at you for puking in my car,
but when we went out you went home with another guy

I'm sorry
That I am there to pick you up at 4am when your new man hit you and dropped you off in the middle of nowhere,
but not good enough to listen to me when I need a friend

I'm sorry
If I start not being there because it hurts being used as a door mat, only to be thrown to the side when the new jerk comes around

I'm sorry
If I don't answer my phone anymore when you call, to listen to you cry for hours, instead of getting a couple hours of sleep before work

I'm sorry
that you can't realize.. I've been the one all along.

I'm sorry
If you read this and know somebody like this
but don't care

But most of all

I'm sorry
For not being sorry anymore

I'm sorry
That you can't accept me for who I am

I'm sorry
I can never do anything right, and nothing that I do is good
enough to make it in your world.

I'm sorry
I caught your boyfriend with another girl and told you about it, I thought that was what friends were for...

I'm sorry
That I told you I loved you and actually meant it.

I'm sorry
That I talked to you for nine hours on Thanksgiving when your boyfriend was threatening you instead of spending time with my family.

I'm sorry
That I cared

I'm sorry
that I listen to you at night talking about how you wish you could have done something different.

I'm sorry
That I let you speak when you wanted, when I had so much that I wanted to say.

Ladies always complain and gripe to their friends that there is never any good guys out there, and they always end up with assholes who mistreat them. Well ladies, next time you're complaining, maybe look up to see who you're complaining to, maybe that special someone is right there hanging on your every word as usual, screaming in his head "Why won't you give me a chance?"
Because the person you are usually searching for is right by you.

If you're a guy and you agree with this letter, copy and paste into your profile as 'I'm sorry'

If You're one of the FEW girls with enough BALLS to copy and paste this into your profile, and you would never make your guy feel this way, copy and paste into your profile as 'Girls Don't Realize These Things'
