Quiet patio where you can sit and read, relax, play a game with family or friends. You can sit in the pool and let the water wash away your cares.

Sound like an advertisement for a feature at a resort? I hope I created that feel with this image. I spent about 40 hours modeling, texturing and setting this one up. I was motivated by wanting something as a true portfolio piece. No competition or assignment this time. This was all for promoting my abilities.
