Things are going well. I have a couple of new projects in the works and this page seems to be both the portal to my traditional art site and the staging area for other things. For FaerieWorlds, Renaissance Faires, and Science Fiction Convention photos; the older ones are on www.dougherring.com, the more recent on www.flickr.com/photos/douglasherring/sets/. For my animated Star Trek project, see www.animatedtrek.com. FantasyHelms.com is still not up yet, but you can contact me through this site about it, and new examples will be updated regularly in the sculpture section here. Site should go live this fall.
As always, this is a work in progress, I am finally moving forward on fleshing out this site. I now have the basics filled in, I just need to search and scan for a few more goodies, and finish up and post my current storyboard project. Also please note that a click on any graphic on a sub page will take you up to it's original menu page, that is my quick navigation system, for what it is worth.
"It's what I do..." is how I generally answer the "oh, you are an artist?" question, usually asked when someone observes me sketching, so the question does seem a bit redundant. But yes, that is what I do. I am a generalist, in many ways I wish I had focused on one medium over the years, mastered it to the degree I would like; but no, my interests bounce all over the place and I am a jack of many mediums, master of none. But I have had a lot of fun along the way and wouldn't change a thing if I could. Hmmm, well... yeah....
I spent fifteen years as an artist and art director in the Computer Games industry, prior to that, six years as an Art Director at a television station. I always have a sketch book with me and I am almost compulsed to doodle when ever there is even the slightest opportunity. Hey, it is what I do...
Reviewing thirty plus years of my work for this website has been overwhelming, irritating, and humbling. I still have so much I want to do with my work! Onward and upwards! Thanks for checking this site out, I hope the best is yet to come! Please keep checking back!
Sincerely,
Doug-
