Not long after I created the Roboz pcture I finished this picture in honour of a Michelle Pfeiffer, who was then relatively unknown. Almost a month of painstaking work went into this picture with the Commodore Amiga. Not very easy when your palette is limited 32 colours and your resolution to 320 X 256, but in those days the Amiga was light-years ahead of the rest of the PC and Mac world.

"I'd like one with a long windy keyboard...some dude strolling down it...guitar over his shoulder...keyboard ends at a castle in the sky. Ground is a wasteland."

This was what my friend and ISP manager asked me to do back in 1998. He wanted to put the picture up in his home. With a guitar from 3D Cafe, a Poser 3 figure, and some difficult positioning work with the stairs, I came up with this. My first commissioned work using Bryce 3D.

At the Bryce Forum there was a light-hearted competition held called the "One Hour Bryce Challenge". The challenge was to create a image using only Bryce and to complete it in one hour (excluding the final rendering of course) "Lost at Sea" was my attempt.

...Softly Ocean Gypsy calls...
Silence holds the stars a while.
They smile sadly for her where she falls...
Just the time before the dawn,
The sea is hushed the ocean calls her
Day has taken her and now she's gone...


No one noticed when she died,
Ocean Gypsy shackled to the tide,
The ebbing waves, the turning spreading white...


Something gone within her eyes,
Her fingers lifeless, stroked the sand,
her battered soul was lost.
She was abandoned...

"Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants know to God. And God's peace which transcends all human understanding will garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." [Philippians 4: 6-7 The Amplified Bible]

A scene of pure imagination. Late afternoon in an autumn forest, where the sky and the trees are frozen in the reflection of a dark pool of water.

Gorillas are not hostile, dangerous creatures. They are wild animals - yes - but actually peaceful and shy - unlike the image conjured up by Hollywood, popular fiction writers such as Edgar Rice Burroughs, and humankind's own natural distrust of all things wild and "untamed". Anyone seeing "Gorillas in the Mist" will see that the human ape is in fact the most dangerous and deadly creature on the face of this planet, and not the shy mountain gorilla.

A popular punishment for many centuries was hanging. But no one could tell the tale better than the tree who lived through it.

Watching my 5 year-old son play one day outside, brought to remembrance an image I had from my childhood. My mother told me of a neighbour's boy they had seen one day acting out his fantasies of being Superman. It was the mid-1950s and probably Superman cartoons were all the rage on television.

I decided to try to capture that moment of a little boy with his mother's kitchen towel around his neck and a borrowed kitchen chair. In the mind of a child he could fly! Of course the image is filled with symbolism of flight - the sheets blowing in the wind, the dandelion and the toy aeroplane.
