• I’ve added one last holiday render for the year. “Peppermint” is now available from the new images page. I hope you like it.

  Now I think I’m going to take a little break from rendering, though I do hope to have one last render up before the year is out (possibly with a “new years” theme) so check back or sign up for the mailing list.

  Jessie and I want to wish you all a safe and happy holiday. Here is a link to a little Christmas poem I wrote a couple of years ago. It’s sappy, but I’m comfortable with that 😉

• It’s 4:00 AM and Jessie and I just got back from the midnight showing of Lord of the Rings. This one is definitely going in my all-time top three movies, right up there with Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark (better in some ways). “Epic” is too small a word. Whether you’ve read the book or not, go see this movie as soon as you can!
• I’m working on one last render before I take a break for the Holidays. Look for it before the end of the week.

• I’ve added six alternate versions of “Winterborn” to the PickleJar.

• Added “Winterborn” today. It’s sort of a holiday wallpaper, but not completely seasonal. I created over 20 different “snowflakes” using the Xfrog software, but unfortunately you can only really see one of them here. Perhaps in the future I will create some other renders featuring the out-of-focus flakes. Either way, I hope you enjoy this render.

• I added “Iris Nebula” to the gallery today; taking a little break from the holiday themes. I will try to do at least one more holiday wallpaper, given all the wonderful ideas that people have been mailing me.
