January 2013
Been at this site five years now and have seen a lot of growth - both artistically and spiritually thanks to the many good friends I have met here. I work with Poserpro2012, photoshop CS6, PSPX2, Perfect Effects 3 and Photomatrix 4. I love working in the material room and continue to find lots of growth there. I also do a lot of postwork fixing, special affects, and framing, all for which photoshop is indispensible. I love doing postwork; no image is anywhere near complete without it.
In the last year or so I've added quite a bit of photography to my gallery. I started with a Nikon Coolpix 9100 point and shoot. It gives amazing quality and its small size makes it easy to pack around and just grab some shots as they come into my vision. I still use it for sneaky people shots but now I use a Nikon D5100 DSLR for my more serious keeper work. Had I known how all consuming my passion for photography would become I should have jumped to a D600 low end pro camera.In my gallery you will see mostly storylines based upon my own visions and versions of Mesopotamian Mythology, sprinkled with some Celtic works and an occasional pinup or two and quite a few special requests. I have long been a writer, though a terrible speller, and so most of my images come with a storyline or poem. No image seems complete to me without words to accompany them.In high school I trained in both the Sciences and Fine Arts but when I went to university I had to choose one or the other and so I went with the life sciences. Art dropped out of my life for a long time... though I never gave up my interest in archeology and mythology. I wound up with a graduate degree in the life sciences with majors in physical geography, ecology and evolutionary biology. My love of nature and a deep naturalistic spirituality eventually led me to the wikkan tradition.Some five and a half years ago I discovered poser after coming across some great 3-d art on the web and after some six months of stumble bum practice I joined this site.Doing this type of art has released many visions and stories that were locked up inside my soul for many ages. It has allowed me to explore the life and times of my primal spiritual ancestor, a girl also named Roxanne, who lived in the Sumerian regions. She whispers the stories of these classic legends in my mind and I create the images to go with them.My stories are mostly written as dialogue and they tend to be rather long. So grab a coffee, a tea or better yet a beer, kick back, relax and stay a while.I hope you enjoy your stay here.Hugs and blessed beRoxy

Nicely composed shot. Love the angles and how the end is off center. Nice postwork, it seems to make the sky a little more ominous. Surprising how the street is so clear of people. I wish the world would focus on the arts like that these days.

Crazy people parking and driving on the wrong side of the road ;) I'm with Art, it's too bad more governments, world leaders would rather focus on destruction and carnage than creativity and art in all it's forms. Some lovely architecture here and a wonderful 'snap' of it Roxy! Wonderful after-fx too. Looking forward to the Turkey pics! Thanks for reading the story :) Tis not over yet, you know.

Oh Roxy, this is my all time fav. You captured a super image here and turned it into a renaissance painting in your post work.Great representaion of linear perspective and using light to accomplish this. What action did you use for this one? Bet this was fantastic on a big screen as even full view does not do it justice. Has the feel that you can just walk into the street. Love it. Super job.

I am not even trying to guess what the average rent is there..:) Nice and sunny pic..lovely perspective! You ran the HDR filter on this?...Next time when you don't run the risk of standing in the middle of the road...go for the full range..Make like 5 pics with 1 or 2 stops in between ( better use a tripod for that though) and then turn those into one HDR pic. You''ll have a pic that is sharp from your feet to the end of the street:)
