Artist: Water Port

"Water Port"

Our June/July Gallery artist is M. C. Holloway. A printer by trade, M.C. Holloway enjoys a second career as a part-time artist. It is his love of art and creativity that drives Holloway to create not only attractive oil paintings, but also imaginative computer images and animations. Having no formal computer training, this digital artist is just one talented member of an artistic family. You can view paintings fashioned by his mother, E. Bebee Townsend, online at http://ebbt.com/index.htm. Moreover, his younger brother is a co-founder of the Animated Gif Artists Guild (www.AGAG.com). Holloway's toolbox bears several software solutions, including Adobe Photoshop 6.0.1, Bryce 5, Ulead Cool 3D, Ulead PhotoImpact, and various fractal programs, such as Fractal ViZion and ChaosPro 3.02. Whereas his favorite programs currently are Adobe Photoshop and Bryce, he hopes to acquire Discreet's 3ds max.
