About my Digital Art
Digital Art or painted in a conventional way ?
The Creative mind is the same. The Means are just different.
A mouse or graphics tablet instead a brush. Pixels instead of Oil Paint
Digital Art has some Wonderful Advantages
A fusion of Creativity and Technology and Force
Creativity: My Inspiration
Tools: A palette of 16 million colors, a mouse or graphics tablet
Technology: Creating of flexible pictures with computer technology and fractal geometry mathematics
Force: The Power of 4 Intel processors to produce the Artwork.
Computer creations as high art, it's a concept that's emerged from the experimental stage, coming into its own.
Thanks for stopping by ! Have a great day !

Statement
|
|
Roy Schneemann's original digital art is about intersections - the
intersection of nature and technology; the intersection of tangible and
spiritual worlds; the intersection of the European cultures where he has
lived and worked, as well as western interpretations of ancient
visionary art from the east.
This German-French artist's use of pixels and a mouse instead of paint and brush is no compromise. Instead, his fusion of creativity and mathematical calculations results in one-of-a-kind, professional quality gicl? prints on fine canvases that challenge your perceptions of the most mundane: birds in flight, cityscapes, an apricot.
Bold, brightly colored images from his computer-generated palette
of 16 million colors become intricate mandala-like devotions.
We are drawn into the mystical world by more subtle, textured works that depict the fractured architecture of nature with translucent overlays that seem to reveal their own pulse.
Computer creations emerge from the artist's imaginative experiments and have now become the newest genre of fine art, worldwide.
New audiences of Roy Schneemann's work might envision a festival of O'Keeffe, Dali, and Disney, but the true celebration is in the eclectic vision of this artist's collection alone.
