• My new autumn scene is progressing nicely but it is a complicated piece and I can’t say for certain when it will be ready to show. I do know it’s taking longer than I would like so to tide you over until it is ready I have added an autumn version of “Canopy Creek” to the gallery this evening.

  I hope you guys enjoy it! I haven’t forgotten about the multi-screen of “Prismatic Pool” either, it’s just that it uses too much RAM for my secondary box to render it so I need to wait until I have some render time available on my new screen. So many pixels, so little time…

• I’ve added the dual and triple screen versions of “Moonlit Oasis (2009)” to the gallery this morning. Again, I hope to have “Prismatic Pool” up shortly.

• I was just about to close the book on Oasis but instead I started playing around with the atmosphere. The result is a moonlit version which I have posted in the gallery this morning. Definitely a different vibe than the sunlit version.

• A few weeks ago I received an eloquent email from a soldier stationed in Iraq (here it is on my Facebook page if you are interested). The email garnered quite a response. One gentleman (thanks Bob!) went so far as to purchase a Lifetime Membership for her.

  A member named Matt posted in the comments thread that her email “would definitely inspire and oasis”, which gave me the idea to refresh my 1999 “Oasis” render.

  The first step was to create the pool, but I took a little detour in developing it to render out my prismatic pool. I went back on task a couple of days ago and now my updated “Oasis” is available for your review. I hope you like it. It’s dedicated to Alecia in Iraq and everyone who wishes they were someplace else.

• Looking at my gallery page it has become obvious to me (and to many of you I am certain) that my health problems have really slowed down my rendering this year. It has always been my policy that renewals are a payment for the past year’s renders but I don’t think this past year has been normal at all. For that reason I am going to lower the price for a 1 year renewal to $8 for the one week starting today (expiring at midnight on 10/2). The discount only applies to one year renewals and is only open to current Members (if you let your account expire and want to renew the price will be the regular $15).

  I do think my posting will speed up in the future. I’ve automated the watermarking process which was a major bottleneck for me. I also have a new site launching soon and I hope to streamline a lot the things that keep me from working on art. Stay tuned and thanks for your continued support!
