My son Ian chose the “Clockwork” shirt from my Society6 store and it finally arrived yesterday. I think it looks great but you be the judge. Ian said he might even wear it to school 🙂

Which of my works would you really love to see on a shirt like this? P>

I recently introduced my boys to the original Star Trek and we’ve been watching them nightly this summer before bedtime. This scene was inspired by the continuing adventures of the Starship Enterprise 🙂

I used Vue d’Esprit’s “Planetary Terrains” twice. The main planet in the sky is a Vue d’Esprit world with the camera pulled way back. The foreground is another spherical terrain, so I can have the sun light peeking over the horizon naturally.

Let me know what you think!

Lifetime Members!

If even half of you signed up as monthly or yearly Supporters I would have to worry a lot less about signing up new Members. Changing over to the new Membership system will help ensure the long-term survival of my gallery, but for the first year of the switchover (at least) I could really use some extra support from my Lifetime Members. Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions!

You never know when inspiration might strike. I’ve been re-reading George R. R. Martin’s “A Clash of Kings” recently. Daenerys Targaryen sees many visions in the “House of the Undying” including one that I thought would make an interesting wallpaper…

“A blue flower grew from a chink in a wall of ice, and filled the air with sweetness…”

Some think the flower symbolizes Jon Snow, and in his very next chapter he meets Ygritte who tells him the story of “The Winter Rose”. Connected? Maybe.

Either way I thought it would make a pretty cool image though and I hope you agree. Let me know what you think!

Here are my first timelapse WIP videos. They are mostly just tests to see what settings to use, etc, but if you are interested I will be happy to make more. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel to stay up to date.

My Members can log in and download the WIP render produced in this video here.

I had long had the thought that my “Portals” scene would support one of my ultra-wide Triscreen images. My “Valley of the Stars” render was the first scene where I felt I should give it a try. Let me know what you think!
