JULY 2010 — CARVED IN PHOTONS These digital images began life as elements in my oil paintings. Way, way back in the last millennium (1998 actually) I carefully traced the outlines of these images in high-resolution files scanned from film into Corel PhotoPaint6. I cut the elements out and pasted them against digital fields created in the same program. The knight above has only those attributes, but I did some work on the coffee cup with the smudge tool to produce the wispy steam wafting over the hot brew. Click on either picture to load the page featuring the full view of the original oil painting from which the image was gleaned. Isolating cameo elements derived from complex scenes can produce interesting stand-alone artworks. |

This is my studio. Note the big mirror out on the deck. I angle it to bounce the sun's rays inside. I go out to adjust it about every 40 minutes. The world turns, sure enough. Check out that streak of light on the ceiling just above the painting. How bright do you think that might be? I figure maybe 400 watts. I guess I'm just a cheapskate. That thing even dries my laundry. |
