  • Closing Shop

    After 26 years I am closing up shop and shutting down my business. I left construction and segued into my work as an architectural visualization artist in 1998. It's been a stimulating and fulfilling career and I will be forever thankful to have taken the leap of faith.

    Thanks to all of you who have commented on the work, offered your expert advice, help and encouragement. I cannot overstate how helpful that has been!

    It's an exciting time to be involved in this industry and I wish you all the very best going forward.

    The work is done...but the adventures will continue! Farewell!

    Hehe, getting out before our AI/robot overlords make their move eh? Very smart

    Good luck with whatever your going to do, even if it's just staring at the mountains with a large gin'n'tonic in hand

    Who will your clients get to do their stuff for them now? I wouldn't mind the odd mountain chalet if they get stuck...you could even make easy cash just taking the backing photos

              Hi Joe and thanks! I'm retiring, it's been a great gig but it's time.

              I will start Social Security in January. Draw as needed from my IRA and we are going to rent our house (2-3 blocks from the ski lifts and everything else) a few times a year for 30 days at a time to finance our own travels.

              Best of luck to you going forward.
