The third and greatest influence and assistance on my artistic journey has undoubtedly been my amazing wife, Tracey. When Tracey and I got together, I was about ready to quit 3d and digital art entirely.. I wasn't really finding any great enjoyment out of it, which had been exacerbated by an acrimonious situation with a pair of other artists for the previous year or so. I was working on Seond Sid at the time, and my plan was to post it as freestuff, then just walk away, pack it in. And then Tracey gave me the hugest kick up the arse ever. Which was very needed, I have to say. Sid promptly got finished double-time, and I went into an insane flurry of creativity and artistic growth. While each of us has different skill sets, we overlap enough that we learn plenty from each other, and I've learned so much from just watching what she does. And if I can't work something out, she'll explain it, sometimes repeatedly if I'm being a bit dim. As well as the technical aspects, there's also the creative side. We live in an almost palpable aura of imagination and creativity. While we each have healthy imaginations, when we intermesh those imaginations together, then it gets really fun. Tracey, thank you for everything. You saved me from myself. I love you so much, forever amd always. x.
