In my last post I mentioned that I produce two distinctly different kinds of digital creative outlets. I touched on the first of those two, 3D computer graphics.
The other style of digital art that I currently spend more time working on now-a-days, are postmodern contemporary digital abstract works, heavily made up of experiments with fractal geometric layers blended creatively. I love creating these abstracts, for the very process of creating them has grown for me into a very Zen like place, as I flow the layers though a series of visual experiments, trying out various blends, filters, and color enhancements. Some days when the flow is right, I can find myself creating multiple finished pieces in one setting. Sometimes I like to create groups of color variations, or multiple versions of a theme. The titles of those groups include either a variation, or a version number. This is an old tradition among artists, which I happily uphold, and seems to fit quite well with this sort of abstract art. While I will always enjoy 3D computer art, I think my most genuine artistic heart is found in my abstract work. I feel a truly creative goal in this style of art. It is for that reason that I chose to make up my portfolio at "See Me" with this abstract style exclusively: See Me Portfolio. As a style of art, it has a meaning beyond a primarily commercial venture. So, in that most bohemian sense of the word it is more essentially just art for art’s sake, not art with a specific commercial purpose, such as cover art for a magazine, book, or e-book, though it most certainly is capable of being sold in various forms, not the least of which as art prints. I have a department at my Zazzle store devoted to just that, Fractal And Abstract Art Prints.
