San Diego, CA -- A two-time-winner of a "Photoshop Guru" award says he's living a geek's dream -- he photographs sexy women and digitally manipulates the images for a new genre of art he's dubbed "DigeroticArt."

When self-proclaimed "digital geek" Tiger Lee isn't spending time in the studio with scantily-clad cuties, he's behind his computer doctoring the shots so the women resemble fantasy creatures like vampires, dragon slayers and space babes.

The San Diego-based artist says his creations allow him to bring his sexual fantasies to life, but being taken seriously has been a challenge.

Lee says he gets shot down on two levels: From gallery owners who don't consider digital photography an art form and from those who think erotica isn't art.

But he hopes to change that. Lee is about to publish his first book, "DigeroticArt" (Tigerize Publishing) and wants to rally fellow digital erotica artists to create a movement within the art world.
