About me

Hi, I'm Mike Stone!

I’ve had a passion for creating Digital Art for over 25 years, with my artwork reflecting the use of visual abstract designs. Using different 3D software to produce the basic image, I next post-edit the image for print.

Many of my renders can be viewed at www.pixelxaos.com and more renders at https://www.flickr.com/photos/pixelxaos/ Contact me if you are interested in obtaining my images.

I have exhibited at major art venues around the Chicago area where I live. My work has also been shown on ‘CBS Sunday Morning’ TV program over the years.

I had a story about me in the paper a few years ago. Here is link.

CD Cover Art

I have also created CD cover artwork for several musicians. I'm a member of ACM Siggraph’s Digital Arts Community and have a professional degree in Electronics Technology. In my spare time I enjoy playing guitar and am a licensed ham radio operator.

Two of my CD cover art did end up on CD. Here are 2 links that still sell the CD's.

About my use of Dogwaffle:

I must say, I am blown away by this program! I love it! I have the Howler 2020 version and find it easy to use and VERY powerful. I loaded the 2020 version on a Windows 7 - 32 bit - (!) PC and runs great. Glad to see it'll run even better on win64.

I want to get into Dogwaffle / Howler more. One future wish would be import 3ds, obj, Lwo, stl files . I see that there's an export to OBJ from the terrain editor (3D Designer). And OBJ import of trees in a sub menu somewhere. Would be good to have a solid viewer for 3D objects to do stuff with, such as use as custom brush or render as background.

Other tools

I also use 3D studio, KPT powertools, BioWin, and Affinty Paint.

Take care.

Mike
