Marjorie,   Regarding your web pages - A very promising start!  I believe we
need much more work like yours which reaches out to the traditional artist and
offers them a bridge from their world to this one. I think this ray
tracing/rendering community, though already evolving artistically,  is still
very techish and insular. Many of us truly enjoy figuring out or seeing others
code tricks and techniques.  Further many of us have minimal formal artistic
training (in my cases talent too) and are simply unable to build these bridges.
I hope you work more on this material and that it makes it's way into the hands
of more artist.  I think there is great potential for great class!
