This the only photo I had of a motorbike which I know he loves.
He told me a cop stop him one night as he rode down the road.wawadave ask him why he was smileing and why he stop him. The cop told him he was the first person he ever saw glowing. wawadave looked down on himself and saw he was glowing with those glow bugs he must have past thought and they juices was all over him glowing. they both laught then.

I will miss his original and BEAUTIFUL art... he was a member on Shifters Evolution too... and I really loved his images! God bless him...
It is very sad about this, when I started here at Renderosity was wawadave that gave me some ideas for working with Bryce.
Didn't know the gentleman, so all the above, Jock.
Was so sad to hear that Dave passed away in July. He was such an active member of the community, here and other sites on the net. His work was so original that it is immediately recognizable as his. I will miss him.

Nancy ( Burpee) hit it on the nose, his work was uniquely his no mistaking it. Sad news indeed'
