Original art "Lighthouse" created by me in Bryce
A more recent venture is designing computer generated art in Corel's Bryce, including the newest version Bryce5. This amazing piece of software allows one to quickly create almost photorealistic, surrealistic, or fanciful images. I have recently begun enhancing these works through MetaCreation's Poser and Painter 5.5. I've split my work into two sections, Landscapes and Science Fiction/Fantasy.

The Dilbert Zone documentary of office workers everywhere

Martial arts are a very important part of my life. I began studying Hapkido fifteen years ago and through it developed heightened self discipline and confidence. Hapkido is a blend of Aikido, Tae Kwon Do, Kung Fu and Judo and for outstanding training in a safe, supportive environment, try The Korean Martial Arts Center in San Francisco.
I've long been drawn to the Chinese landscapes of the Sung and Yuan Dynasties (about 1000 - 1300 AD). I have had training in painting in this style, and have added scans of some of my original paintings. For historical information and images the National Palace Museum Taiwan has probably the finest collection in the world. Other sites with excellent information and examples are:

Geography
I enjoy keeping track of the countries in which people kind enough to view this webpage live. To see maps that direct you to web directories of the history, culture, and attractions of these countries, please click on the name of a continent, then click on a place that is color highlighted. More countries will be added as visitors from them find their way to this page:
Sorry, but no one from Antarctica has visited yet.

This homepage developed the old fashioned way with HTML code because I didn't get around to finishing it before my trial copy of Hot Dog timed out.
