About Coran

I began writing software many years ago having 'fell' into computers almost by accident (or by spiritual design) and have enjoyed this part of my life ever since. Software writing affords a niche for my logical mind but also for my creative mind. Now I design websites for those who cannot do it themselves.

I realised that there are two parts to us - the masculine and the feminine. The masculine is the doer and the feminine is the muse. With me they are both in harmony (most of the time) and this gives me an edge over other software designers. That is, I can create unusual ideas (thinking outside the box) and manifest these into good software applications.

These pages detail my work in using Poser, Vue, DAZ3D, Corel Painter and Corel Paint Shop Pro. I started with DAZ3D and then moved to Poser after finding the quality of the rendering much better. I now use Vue 8 as the driving force, the creative platform, the renderer for the artwork and fall back to Poser if this is more appropriate.

From my experiences with photography, lighting is the most important factor and if this is not right, the whole is subtly affected. We seem to have an inbuilt knowing of 'rightness' in images. Ideas are paramount and if these are not forthcoming then any picture is less than it could be. I aim to bring out the best not only within me but also with the final image.

As part of my web design business, I felt that my creative spark would be fanned even more if I let my imagination run free to roam in the nooks and crannies of my spiritual mind. This I have done and I feel it shows in every picture.
