	Collections Abstractions and non-representational; stream of conciousness is my favored method for theme development. Images in Nature; interpreting the natural world around me. 3D Compositions; I am intrigued by the interaction of reflectivity, transparency, texture, and color. NASA imagery; as I prepared for college, it was a close toss-up whether I should study design or astronomy, and I have never really let go of the latter. Commuter art; inspired by, and dedicated, to fellow souls who have logged hundreds of thousands of miles to keep the global economy moving. Portraiture; people and beasts. RPG; another interest I combine with my art is gaming. These pieces were produced as visual aids in describing a scene.		contact eMail; kramer@kramerdpg.com Phone; 425 • 308 • 0655 iChat/AIM; kramdesign Yahoo!
