My Bio
I am a Hobbyist Artist with an Interest in Science-Fiction, Horror and Steampunk.
I write Software for a living.
I work with a Group to develop a Shoot 'em Up or 'Shmup' for a Retro Game Console.
I studied Art at School and College where I taught my self Sculpture, Pencil Art then Ink and Acrylic Paint.
I started initially with Water Colour and Pencils but prefer Ink and a blue Pencil these Days.
I haven't done any Sculpture for many Years but I would like to get back into it some Time in the future.
I am the Software Developer for the Shmup Project but I also come up with Ideas for the Game as well as writing all the Tools and Game Software.
I would like to collaborate with like minded Artists on this Project.

Hello all,
I seem to find myself in these Situations whereby I have some ability in a given Subject and may be able to work well in each Subject on there own but find it odd and strange and difficult to 'think' in more than one at a time. Yes, I could be gettting old :D
Recently I put down the Art-Hat and concentrated fully on the Software and thus wore my Software-Hat :)
I even tried my hand at Pixel-Art but find it too strange to place Pixels on a Screen - it feels so strange to me and anything but like to working traditionally. I find myself kind of wanting to jump into the Screen and place Pixels with my Hands, I suppose I am missing
