[ 001_Seratonin_Sunrise.jpg ]

The first image in a new series I did. As of this series I have started numbering the files by series.

I was asked to do some psycadellic artwork, and so I did these three pieces. In this one I tried to use the kinds of colours you would see at sunrise. Pastel colours viewed through a white morning mist.

The second image of this series. Once again I tried to use the colous associated with the time of day. Bright, crisp colours. A much more symetrical image, indicating the sun overhead, with blue sky creeping in around the edges. I just tried to give this image a brighter, crisper, miday kind of feel.

The third image in the series. As with all images in this series, I attempted to use the colours associated with the given time of day. Strong, rich, colours. Not as bright as the first two images, and with more yellows, oranges, and pinks... sunset colours.

This is a bit of shameless self promotion. But then again, that's me! . This is also the image I currently have as my Windows desktop at home.

Never let it be said I was afraid of a bit of self-pimping.

A nice little background image from the PSiBER~DREAMS site. Those images are an alien's head, a pair of headphones, and 3 different views of the world.

This is my image of the "42 fractal" (well its sort of a 42... I tried anyway).

First of a series of 4 images I did a little while back. Just another cool fractal.

The tentative name for this piece is "chrystalis", because of it's oganic chrysalis feel, with strong crytaline overtones.

Second in the series is this fractal. This fractal is the one I have as my Windows desktop at work.

The tentative title for this piece is: "exoskeletal eddies". This is due to the overal feel of insect exoskeletal plates and structures, but incorporating the kinds of spirals and twirls you might associate with smoke or liquids being mixed and creting small eddy currents.

I feel this image has an almost bio-mechanical feel to it, much like some of H. R. Geiger's work, as he has provided me with much inspiration over the years.

The third in the series. I did these images for some people at work who wanted some new backgrounds for Windows.

That object in fhe foregrouund is three glass touri (or is it "touruses" ?), at right-angles to each other. I thought this would be a good contrast against the highly organic background. Plus I felt like doing some refractive ray-tracing.

This is the fourth and final of the series and quite obviously was done for a friend at work called Karin.

The main inspiration behind this piece is that Karin said that she would like something that looked quite 3D. So I produced this, because it looks 3-dimentional, while being abstract enough so that it still doesn't look too "fake". I have a strong dislike for images that look rendered for the sake of rendering. Primarily images with only foreground items and little or no attention has been paid to the background.

This is just a little (1024 * 768) desktop image I whipped up for a new friend. I used Micrografix Simply 3D, Adobe Photoshop 5.0.2, and Fractint 20.0. These are my usual graphics tools - occasionally I will write a custom program for a specific task.

I was in a techy mood, hence the scanlines, borders, and laser-like lines in the image.

My little animated GIF U.F.O. Close encounters of the DOOF kind!

This was the title image from this site when I first made it. At that stage the site was just a miscelaneous jumble of stuff I'd done. Hence the site name, "Whitenoise".

Since then this site has gone through several complete redesigns, as I use it as practice in HTML interface design. I also use it as HTML experimentation, which is why this site will sometimes not look so good in all browsers.
