Pardon my jumping on here, HA! This thread is funny to me. I've got
a Master of Fine Arts Degree from the San Francisco Art Institute and
I have managed to get pretty warm to this old computer. It did
however take me almost 10 years of incubating the idea before I
decided to actually see what kind of drawings I could make. Of
course I have been a practicing artist for 20+ years. The catalyst,
I suppose, was an educational grant for a comprehensive AutoCAD
course. Of course I love geometry, and technical drawing so 3D Studio
drew me in like a magnet. Been with it two years now and it is the
most exciting thing to happen in my life in a long time. I suppose
that alone qualifies me as a geek or a nerd. Have I done anything
with it? Yes. Is it art? <G> Well, that remains to be seen doesn't
it. My most recnt claim to fame is on the cover of the Oct/Nov issue
of PC Presentations/Productions. But I really love what I can do
with animation. Perhaps one day soon I'll get to the single frame
video output medium. I hate being pigeon holed.
If you want to do something, I say just do it. Let somebodyelse figure it out.
