Think of the mouse as food and click to feed the fish. Multiple clicks makes them crazy! You can also hover your mouse and they will follow it.

Nothing deep here, although the one blue fish has a nice style as a nonconformist

About the Artwork:
The post image (at the top) is part of my fantasy artwork and was drawn using Vue D’Esprit and a mesh image of an antiquated submarine model. I put some ruins in the distance to give it a sense of direction, but used the defaults to get that underwater effect. The sub is used in several art pieces, along with a zeppelin as they were meant for illustrations in a children’s story I was working on. Yet another project lost to lack of time…but hey, I learned how to draw submarines so it wasn’t a total loss :-p

My career began in the US Air Force where I had an opportunity to learn so many different things from packing parachutes to designing websites. I also had the chance to fly the jet in the photo, it was the best day of my military career! The artwork in this collection comes from projects I worked on while learning Photoshop and webdesign.

Can the first letter of your name give away insightful things about you? Only you know the truth but many are surprised by the accuracy of this very unscientific game.

Select the letter of your first name.

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Results will open in a new window.

I’ve been asked who wrote the data that connects each letter, and I have no idea where it originated. I collected multiple quizes and samples of work like this during my studies in college. I don’t put a lot of validity in horoscopes or things like this, it’s simply interesting for discussions with friends so I posted it here.

A Walk in the woods is a situational set of questions designed to help you understand how your subconcious mind relates to the feelings and decisions you make about people around you.

(Make sure to answer all 10 questions before jumping to the explanation.)

Read the following questions, imagining the scenes in your mind, and write down the FIRST thing that you visualize. Do not think about the questions excessively.

Imagine you are walking in a forest on a pleasant day. Everything is fine and you feel great…

1. There is someone walking with you, who is it?

2. While you are walking in the woods. You see an animal. What kind of animal is it?

3. You need to keep going so what interaction takes place between you and the animal?

4. You walk deeper in the woods until you reach a clearing. There in the clearing is your Dream House. Briefly describe its appearance and size.

5. Is your dream house surrounded by a fence?

6. You enter the house. You walk to the dining area and see the dining table. Describe what you see on the table.

7. You exit the house through the back door. Lying in the grass is a cup. What material is the cup made of?

8. What do you do with the cup?

9. You walk for quite a while, far from the house and eventually find yourself standing at the edge of a body of water. What type of body of water is it?

10. You must cross the water, how will you do it?

– This has been a relational psychology test. The answers given to the questions have been shown to have a relevance to values and ideals that we hold in our personal lives. The analysis follows:

1. The person who you are walking with is the most important person in your life.

2. The size of the animal is representative of your perception of the size of your problems in life.

3. The severity of the interaction you have with the animal is representative of how you deal with your problems. (passive/aggressive)

4. The size of your dream house is representative of the size of your ambition to resolve your problems. (bigger house-more ambition)

5. No fence is indicative of an open personality. People are welcome at all times. The presence of a fence indicates a closed personality. You’d prefer people not to drop by unannounced. You may also have a sense that your dream is private and needs protecting.

6. If your answer to what is on or around the table included food, people, or flowers, then you are generally happy in life. If any you only mentioned silverware, plates or candles then you equate possessions with happiness rather than relationships. If the table was bare then you are unhappy with life in general.

7. The durability of the material with which the cup is made of is representative of the perceived durability of your relationship with the person named in number 1. For example, styrofoam, plastic, and paper are disposable and easily forgotten. Materials such as ceramic, metal, wood, or glass are durable and last much longer.

8. Your disposition of the cup is representative of your attitude towards the person in number 1.

9. The size and type of water reveals your attitude and interest toward sex.

10. The method used for crossing the water is indicative of how you approach the idea of sex. For example a person who swims is more adventurous than one who finds a boat or walks around the body of water.

Quizes, tests, horoscopes, all stem from the same idea-that everything about you can be revealed from a single point or preferance. I came across a few of these while studying for my bachelors in Psychology and found them to be great conversation starters. Pick a color, a name or dare to take a “walk in the woods” and see if you discover something about yourself or your friends. The information was collected from multipls sources so I can’t give any degree of accuracy or legitimacy to the results, just have fun with it.

OK, Here’s the pitch…

Can your favorite color reveal something about your personality? According to research it absolutely can. Be your own judge–click your favorite color below and see how accurate it sounds to you. Then asks your friends what their favorite is and see if the choice is accurate.

Are you colorblind? How do you know? I didn’t until a doctor put some dots in front of me while I was undergoing my first military physical. I was 18 at the time and had no idea I was colorblind until that moment. But the dots don’t lie (nor do the numbers show up when you’re colorblind). This one issue affected my military career greatly, it meant I couldn’t be a pilot, mechanic, work in medical fields, forget electronics or nuclear missiles, jet engines…all the cool stuff! Needless to say I didn’t let that stop me from doing many of the things I wanted, (I even flew an F-16 once) and I even became an art hobbyist just to show it’s only a limitation if you accept it as one.

If you want to find out about your color vision, take a look below at the most common test for it…I can only see one out of the six numbers and I see a 2 in that last one at the bottom…and that’s a trick one! Epic Fail! :-0

Ishihara Test for Color Blindness
What numbers do you see revealed in the patterns of dots below?
I am color blind, as is about 12 – 20 percent (depending on whose figures you want to believe) of the white, male population and a tiny fraction of the female population. Most of these circles are nothing but spots to me. Below are the correct answers to what a person with normal color vision would see – and what I see (and most people with Red-Green color blindness). When you see what we can’t see, you may understand why it’s so tough to find the right sox and why we like bright colors, which are more easily identifiable.
Normal Color Vision			Red-Green Color Blind
	Left	Right		Left	Right
Top	25	29	Top	25	Spots
Middle	45	56	Middle	Spots	56
Bottom	6	8	Bottom	Spots	Spots
Another interesting color blindness test is below
			The test to the left is simpler. The individual with normal color vision will see a 5 revealed in the dot pattern. An individual with Red/Green (the most common) color blindness will see a 2 revealed in the dots

Fantasy Artwork was a hobby while learning to work with 3d modeling and rendering software. I considered using them as illustrations for a story I might write but never had the time to work the whole project out.
