A lot of people seem to struggle with understanding what it means to be a digital artist. Sure they know that we work on the computer but apart from that they just don't understand. For people like that traditional media like paper and charcoal and oil paint and canvas are "real art" and everything else isn't quite the same. They are right you know - it isn't the same, and if anything, I look back at my time painting with paint as being a bit limited.
Of course I still paint, just in a different way but I also make images in all sorts of different ways. Artists have been ahead of the curve this last 100 years or so as far as innovation goes. Mother nature demonstrates constantly that those creatures who do not evolve quickly perish as those who did evolve thrive. Even so evolution for its own sake wouldn't be worth it if it didn't also carry with it the feeling of the wind in the hair as we rush toward new adventures. To me as an artist who embraces technology and especially digital cameras, the computer and the internet I find new ways exciting as well as fulfilling artistically. I love the learning and the ways the new technology is turning me into a multi-faceted artist. Because the new technology puts so much power to make so many different things in our hands it is turning us back into Renaissance artists in the sense that we try to do everything.
To it required shooting the photographs and video. It required quite radically improving some of the photographs painting new backgrounds and refining. It required finding copyright free photographs of iconic 60's images and then working them up in Photoshop. The image of the Beatles in front of numerous pop Mona Lisa's took about 3 hours to put together. I am rather pleased with it both as an artwork and for the way it suited the video. I also needed to find suitable copyright free music to work into the movie and of course scripting, and fitting the photographs and video footage together to make a movie that allowed me to express my appreciation of the artistry of a sculpted masterpiece like this car. To me this is what being an artist in the technological world is all about. It works for me, now I just have to convince all those people with mind-sets stuck back in the 20th century.
I hope you like the video.
I propose not to hold off until you get enough money to order different goods! You can get the home loans or just short term loan and feel yourself comfortable
